Building Agents with Crew: Chicago
Build a production-ready AI agent. In one afternoon.
Go from zero to a deployed agent that's yours to keep.
Everyone's talking about AI agents. Far fewer have shipped one that works. This lab closes that gap. One guided session, real code, and you walk out with a working agent you built and deployed yourself.
What you'll build:
An autonomous enrichment agent. It takes raw input, researches and fills in what's missing on its own, and hands back clean, structured data you can act on immediately. It's one of the most common patterns running in production today, and a sharp first step into agent engineering.
You'll deploy it to a live CrewAI AMP environment. No infra setup required.
You'll walk away with:
→ A working enrichment agent you built and deployed yourself, running in your own CrewAI environment
→ A repeatable agent-engineering pattern you can take straight to your own projects
→ Access to your environment through July 1 to keep iterating
→ A direct line to CrewAI engineers
Who this is for:
Engineers, architects, and technical builders ready to go from concept to deployed agent in a single session. This is an intermediate-level working session.
You'll need:
→ A laptop you can install software on
→ A code editor (VS Code, Cursor, or your IDE of choice)
→ Working comfort with Python
