Venue. Recorded workshops. Year. 2026. Materials/source.
Short summary. The talk version of the Alma Track 2 rollout.
What the talk covers
The talk is built around concrete examples — Alma's production rollouts, the watcher daemons, the rebuilt coach, and the gradual-rollout pattern. It avoids stock slides about AI and stays specific about decisions and trade-offs.
Who it's for
Best suited for residency programs, founder cohorts, and engineering teams who want to compress a year of trial and error into a couple of hours.
A coach that doesn't know you is just a chatbot with opinions.
— Rami Alhamad, building a coach that remembers you
