A 7-day, invite-only accelerator. Every morning from 5 AM, you’ll validate an idea, ship a working v1, and wire AI into your business — with Claude, Cursor, and four founders moving at your pace.
Next cohort Aug 9–15 · Europe & US morning tracks
The idea that never ships.
You don’t need more time. You need one focused week, the right AI workflow, and a room that expects you to ship.
Seven mornings. One business, built with AI.
Live sessions run 5–7 AM on weekdays and 5–8 AM on weekends, in your timezone. Come with an idea; leave with a product.
Sharpen the idea and offer, set up your AI workspace with Claude & Cursor, and ship a real landing page — live before breakfast — with a validation mechanism wired in (waitlist, analytics, interviews).
A live landing page collecting signal
Drive your first traffic, run real conversations, and read the signal your page is already collecting. Opinions out, evidence in.
Your first validation data
Scope the smallest thing that proves the idea and build the core feature with Cursor. Done beats perfect.
A working v1
Wire AI into your operations — lead capture, follow-ups, content — so the machine runs the overhead.
1–2 automations running
Launch mechanics, outreach and onboarding. Get the product in front of real people and instrument the feedback loop.
Your first real users
Stand up a repeatable experiment engine and run the first batch. Growth stops being luck and starts being math.
An experiment backlog + first results
Polish, present to the room, and walk away with your reusable AI operating system and a 30-day plan to keep the momentum.
A demo + your AI OS
Worst case, you leave fluent in the tools.
Not everyone ships a finished product in seven mornings — and that’s okay. What every founder walks away with is genuine command of the AI stack the best builders use to move fast: Claude, Cursor, and automation, applied to real work. Launching is the goal we chase together; mastering the tools is the floor you’re guaranteed.
Not notes. A shipped thing.
The promise: by Saturday you’ll wield Claude, Cursor and automation the way top builders do — real workflows, not toy prompts. Guaranteed, whether or not the product ships.
Live from Day 1, with a validation mechanism collecting real signal while you build the rest of the week.
A real, usable product you built yourself with Cursor — the goal every cohort pushes for, not “almost ready.”
A reusable set of AI workflows and automations that keep working long after the cohort ends.
The 5AM Accelerator is run by Davy — founder, engineer, and a 5 AM riser for years. He builds and ships products with AI every morning, and this is the exact workflow, run live with you.
The best hour to build the thing that’s yours is the one before the world wakes up.
€3,000 isn’t a course fee. It’s a compressed build week.
You’re not buying videos. You’re buying a deadline, a four-person room, the tool stack to ship, and a 5 AM habit that protects deep work after the cohort ends.

Tool stack
Claude, Cursor, Lovable, Bolt, Spider Social — covered for the cohort
No surprise bills on Day 1. Your tuition covers access to the tools we actually build with during the cohort.
Seven dawns in a row isn’t a gimmick — it’s how you install deep work before Slack, clients, and family claim the day. You leave with more than a product slice: a 5 AM build ritual you can keep running when the Zoom room closes.
The floor you’re guaranteed: real command of the AI build stack. The stretch we chase together: a live product and first users. The habit that makes both stick: mornings that belong to you.
€3,000. Four seats. One week.
Tools included · ~€190/hour live · Europe & US tracks · August 9–15.
Straight answers before you apply.
No. We build with Cursor and Claude — you’ll learn to direct AI, not write every line by hand. A willingness to ship and learn by doing matters more than a CS degree.
That’s okay. The floor you’re guaranteed is real fluency with Claude, Cursor, and automation applied to your work. Launching is the stretch goal we chase together; mastering the tools is the promise.
Sessions run 5–7 AM on weekdays and 5–8 AM on weekends. We offer Europe (Brussels) and US (SF/NY) morning tracks so you can join in your local dawn — not at 2 AM.
Four seats. That’s intentional: enough peer energy, not so many that you disappear into a Zoom grid.
An idea (or an existing business you want to accelerate), a laptop, and the ability to protect those morning hours for one week. Tool access for Claude, Cursor, Lovable, Bolt, and Spider Social is included in your seat — we set you up on Day 1.
Yes. Your €3,000 covers access to the stack we build with during the cohort — Claude, Cursor, Lovable, Bolt, and Spider Social — so you’re not stacking five bills on top of tuition before you’ve shipped anything.
No — the product is shipping with AI. The 5 AM format is how we protect deep work: seven mornings that install a build habit you can keep after Saturday. The routine is part of the operating system, not the headline offer.
No. It’s live, small, and hands-on. If you want passive content on 2×, this isn’t for you. If you want a room that expects you to ship, it is.
Pick your morning track (Europe or US), drop your email, and we’ll send a short application within a day. If it’s a match, we lock your seat for the next cohort (August 9–15).
You’re buying ~16 hours of live, facilitated build time in a room of four (~€190/hour), the full tool stack for the cohort (Claude, Cursor, Lovable, Bolt, Spider Social), a 5 AM operating habit, plus the AI OS and 30-day plan you keep. Hiring the same week often costs as much — without the skills. Courses cost less and rarely force a live ship.
Yes — we can split into two payments when that unblocks the right founder. Ask when you reply to the application email.
Four seats. Seven mornings. Apply now and we’ll send you the short application to claim your spot in the next cohort.
