Creative Building with GPT-6 Astra: Live Masterclass with Meng To
Creative Building using GPT-6 Astra
Everyone is able to use AI to produce something.
The difficult part of using AI, is to correctly and masterfully direct it to build products and designs that have taste, in a controllable and repeatable way.
And to create designs that truly stand out.
In this full-day session, Meng To will show you the full possibilities of what you can use AI to build creatively.

He will demo and teach you on the judgment and practical workflows he uses to steer AI to repeatedly build websites that feel coherent, distinctive and deliberately made.
You will then build your own.
When you get stuck, you will receive live support from Meng directly, on where and how to rebuild when the design does not turn out the way you want, and how to create what worked into reusable skills.
Instead of months of experimenting alone and wondering why the result still feels wrong, you will work through the process alongside an experienced founder and craftsman, whose work has impacted more than 346k followers.
For startups: You learn to make a website that catches attention for your product and service.
For designers and agencies: You learn how to speed up your work and build process without sacrificing craft.
This time we will be experimenting with codex and GPT-6 Astra.
Early bird S$449 through 14 September 2026. Regular S$549 after that.

What you will learn
Meng's Super Prompting Technique: Reference → Super Prompt → Design System → Prototype → Build → Critique → Reusable Skill
Design and Prompt Vocabulary: You will learn the key terms Meng uses himself to increase the level of polish of his designs
How to identify AI slop: Eyebrows, layout quirks, tell tale signs of bad icon and image
Multi-threading: You will learn how to spin up multiple threads to work concurrently on separate parts of the project
How to make AI work harder: You will learn how to guide AI to not just plan, and build, but to iteratively verify and improve upon its decisions
What you will do during the session
Beyond Meng's sharing and teaching, you will work through one focused website project, from choosing a visual direction to building, critiquing and improving it.
Short demonstrations are followed by dedicated time to apply the lesson to your own page.
You’ll practise carrying a consistent design across sections, identifying a specific weakness, and checking whether your correction improves the result on desktop and mobile.
By the end of the day, you leave with
A responsive creative page with a clear story and visual direction that is designed to "wow"
One weak section you diagnosed and rebuilt
A reusable Codex skill from a method that worked
A published result checked on desktop and mobile
A critique method you can use on the next product
