A class for the people AI left behind

Most people paying for Claude or ChatGPT use a fraction of it. Rung Learning is the class that closes that gap, one rung at a time.

Last updated 25 August 2026

What Rung Learning is

Live, small-group AI lessons for working professionals, taught in plain English, using your own work as the material.

There is a strange gap in how people use AI. Millions pay twenty dollars a month for a chatbot, ask it a question, read the answer, and stop there. They have never written a prompt with real context in it, never given the model a document to work from, never handed it a task and walked away. The tool is capable of far more than they are getting, and nobody has shown them the next step.

That next step is what we teach. Not theory, not prompt-hack lists, and not a two-hour video you will never finish. A live session where you bring a real task from your own week and leave with it done.

Who it is for

  • You already pay for Claude or ChatGPT and suspect you are underusing it
  • You work in finance, law, operations, consulting, or another job built on documents and deadlines
  • You are not technical, and you do not want to become a programmer to get value out of this
  • You learn better in a room where you can interrupt and ask about your own work

It is not for engineers looking to build products on model APIs, and it is not a certification. If you want a self-serve video library, there are cheaper options and we will say so.

How the sessions run

Every session is live and online, ninety minutes, capped at six people. Six is the number where everyone still gets airtime. Most AI classes pack in eight to fifteen and move on regardless.

Level 1 is three sessions that build on each other. Session 1, AI Foundations, is open now: a six-part framework for prompting well, a context file so the model sounds like you rather than a stranger, and a daily brief that reads your email and calendar each morning. Sessions 2 and 3 cover context and skills, then an introduction to Claude Code, and are in build now.

You bring a real task. You leave having done it. That is the whole design.

Who teaches it

Jesse Levin runs Rung Learning and teaches every session. He works in finance by day, which is the point: the lessons come from someone who uses these tools on real deadlines and real documents, not from a demo built for a slide.

You can see his professional background on LinkedIn.

Where this is today

Rung Learning is new and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise. Session 1 is running at a launch price of fifty dollars, down from one hundred and fifty. The full Level 1 is three hundred dollars, down from five hundred. There are no testimonials on this site yet because the first cohorts are still going through. When there are, they will be real names from real students.

What we will not do

  • No inflated productivity statistics we cannot back up
  • No fake scarcity counters or countdown timers
  • No reselling or sharing your email address, ever
  • No pretending a recorded video is the same thing as a live room
