# Pirin.ai - Complete Documentation > A Founder Builder Studio helping non-technical founders ship AI-era products. Code and learn the last 20% alongside a seasoned developer. Ground Level ($275/mo) provides structured project-based learning. Next Level (by invitation) adds weekly demos and investor presentations. --- ## About Pirin.ai Pirin.ai is a Founder Builder Studio that aims to bridge the gap between having a great startup idea and actually shipping a product. We exist because one of the most common questions in Founder Institute mentor hours is: "Where do I find a technical co-founder?" The painful truth? The best technical talent isn't waiting to join your idea-stage startup—they're busy building their own companies or earning top salaries at established firms. To be clear, AI doesn't replace technical experts—it makes them superhuman. But you're better off in-market learning and iterating than sitting on the sidelines. Launch now. Find the right co-founder/CTO later, on your own terms. ### The AI-Era Opportunity The AI era is rewriting the rules of what's possible for startups. While others debate whether AI will replace jobs, founders at Pirin.ai are building the companies that will define the next decade. Here are the opportunity areas we're obsessed with: **AI-accelerated differentiation in established industries** Legacy systems hold pieces of the business puzzle in isolated silos—sales, support, product, engineering. Some of the most valuable knowledge exists in the links between these silos: decision traces that flow from customer feedback through executive consideration, product prioritization, development, testing, and deployment. These deep business insights are lost in legacy systems. However, when modern AI is given access to unique proprietary data and constructs deep semantic knowledge graphs, it becomes an unmatched source of wisdom for everyone in the company. Whether it's supply chain optimization, sales intelligence, customer support automation, or internal knowledge management—the winners will be companies that use AI to build moats from their proprietary data, not just add a chatbot to their UI. **Robotics, Physical AI & the abundance revolution** In robotics, DDD stands for Dull, Dirty, and Dangerous—tasks that are repetitive, messy, or hazardous for humans, making them ideal for automation to improve safety and efficiency. Humanoids and autonomous systems are flipping the script on real-world work—laundry services, car washes, lawn care, tree trimming, plumbing, skilled trades. Robotaxis unlock previously cost-prohibitive use cases: safely transporting kids to sports practice, taking grandma to visit friends, picking up groceries on the way home. What was once expensive, unsafe, or unavailable through capital-intensive services is becoming accessible and affordable. As autonomous driving and humanoids go mainstream, the opportunities are limitless. The bravest of founders can even think about participating in the race to space-bound datacenters, why not. Only the unreasonable change the world; while the reasonable just fit in. **Healthcare AI** Healthcare settings face critical staffing shortages and burnout, especially in nursing. AI can automate routine but time-consuming tasks: patient follow-up calls, appointment scheduling and reminders, clinical documentation and charting, triage and symptom assessment, clinical decision support (flagging drug interactions, suggesting protocols), and supply chain/inventory management. These systems can integrate with existing EHR platforms (Epic, Cerner) via APIs, reducing administrative burden and freeing clinicians to focus on high-value patient care. The opportunity is massive for founders who can navigate healthcare compliance (HIPAA, FDA) and deliver practical, implementable solutions. **Meet Consumers Where They're Going** Small businesses—restaurants chained to reservation giants, family entertainment centers stuck with outdated booking software, youth sports leagues reliant on clunky team-management tools—are trapped by legacy providers with fragmented, friction-filled experiences. Consumers are increasingly delegating search, recommendations, booking, and payments to AI agents via natural text, voice, or video on phones, TVs, and cars. Build AI-native products that make businesses easily discoverable and engaging for these agents—handling prompts and closing payments directly, without clunky POS terminals or vendor lock-in. Liberate industries with seamless, agent-first experiences that scale effortlessly. **Network Effects That Compound** Build platforms where every new user makes the product exponentially more valuable—like AI agent marketplaces that get smarter with every integration, shared training datasets that improve models for all participants, community-driven meme coins that rally thousands around a shared vision, or utility tokens that unlock better features as the network grows (holders earn governance, rewards, or exclusive access). These blockchain-inspired flywheels (Metcalfe's Law on steroids) create unbreakable moats: the bigger the community, the stronger the value, and the harder it is for clones to catch up. We obsess over helping founders engineer these winners-take-all dynamics from day one. **Crypto-enabled business models** Stablecoins, DeFi protocols, and blockchain infrastructure are unlocking new business models that weren't possible five years ago. From tokenized real-world assets to decentralized marketplaces, the winners will be founders who understand both the technology and the regulatory landscape. --- ## Programs ### Ground Level - $275/month For non-technical founders who want to ship their first product. **What You Get:** - Project-based learning: Ship your MVP while learning to code - Weekly group sessions: Share progress, troubleshoot blockers, learn from peers - Milestone tracking: Clear goals and accountability - Technical mentorship: Code reviews and guidance from experienced developers - Community access: Network with other technical founders **Ideal For:** - Solo founders with a validated idea who need to build - Business-focused founders transitioning to technical skills - Graduates of startup programs (Founder Institute, etc.) ready to ship - Anyone who's tired of waiting for the "perfect" technical co-founder **Requirements:** - Commitment to weekly learning and building - Clear startup idea or problem you want to solve - Willingness to learn technical skills (no prior coding required) **Apply:** https://pirin.ai/apply/ground-level ### Next Level - By Invitation For founders who've completed Ground Level and are ready to scale. **What You Get:** - Weekly demo sessions: Present your product progress - Investor presentation practice: Pitch refinement and feedback - Advanced technical guidance: Architecture, scaling, best practices - Network introductions: Connect with investors, advisors, and potential customers - Priority support: Faster response times and dedicated guidance **Eligibility:** - Completed Ground Level program - Product is live and gaining traction - Ready for investor conversations - Demonstrated progress and commitment **Apply:** https://pirin.ai/apply/next-level --- ## AI Agent Integration ### Overview Pirin.ai provides a programmatic API for AI agents (ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Gemini) to submit applications on behalf of authenticated users. This enables seamless discovery and application submission when users ask about finding technical help or building their startup. ### Authentication & Security **OAuth Required:** - Users must authenticate via Google or GitHub OAuth - This prevents spam and ensures legitimate submissions - User identity is verified before submission **AI Agent Verification:** - Agents must identify themselves via User-Agent header - Supported agents: ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Gemini, other AI assistants - Unknown agents are logged but not rejected **User Consent:** - Users must explicitly consent to application submission - Agents should confirm intent before submitting - Consent is tracked in the database ### API Endpoint **POST** `https://pirin.ai/api/ai-agent/apply` **Headers:**
