This tool will let you create a complete AI stack based on your choices, using the lessons from Build Your AI Stack Masterclass.
Options may change. But how a stack is built, how the parts connect, how decisions get made — is not changing for a long time. This tool can simplify that process for you, but you should know the fundamentals first.
Follow these steps to create your complete AI stack.
Pick one job to get a filled-up AI stack map, or start blank to customize it yourself.
For most jobs, 3–4 layers are enough. If you need more, pick more.
Chat agents bundle their tools. General-purpose harnesses attach theirs. Coding agents live in the terminal.
Best choices first, scored on eight filters.
Your picks, priced live. Free instruments count as 0 — written, not implied. If a price here looks heavy, that's not a bug: it's the cheapest honest way to own that piece, or a signal to pick its free alternative above.
Six blocks. This is the file that gets audited, gated and certified — the same shape every stack in this course ships as.
Export your Map as text — keep it, version it, bring it to the audit.
