Ryan calls himself a recovering accountant. Before AI, he built a hiring-software company to 10,000 customers, without ever writing a line of code. That detail matters, because it is the whole point of how he teaches: the leverage was never in the syntax. It was in the systems.
When the AI wave hit, Ryan didn’t make content about it, he disappeared into the tools. Thousands of hours later, he came out the other side with something almost nobody has: a repeatable method for deploying AI systems into ordinary jobs, research engines, ROI engines, content engines, with the dollar savings documented, not claimed.
That method became the Certified Agentic Program: 90 days, four working systems built into your actual work, and twelve months of Ryan reviewing what you build and telling you when it’s wrong.
