The team behind Probata Academy
Practitioners who build with Claude, Lovable and Supabase every day, and who chose to show you their method rather than their faces.
What guides our work
Production, not demos
An app is only finished when it holds up with real users, real data and real payments.
Proof over promises
Sourced and dated figures, a live demo app, verifiable certificates of completion (not a state-recognized qualification): nothing you can't check for yourself.
Clarity before speed
A one-page brief before the first prompt, short verifiable tasks, access rules before the first screen.
Learner independence
You leave with a method, your app and its code. No dependency on us or on a contractor.
What we know how to build
No portraits, no client logos: we'd rather show what we know how to build, and teach you to build it.
Scope a business need
Turn a fuzzy idea into a one-page project brief, with verifiable success criteria.
Architect data and access rules
Design the database, roles and security rules before the first screen, then prove them with tests.
Take payments cleanly
Wire up payments, signed webhooks and invoices, with access that opens and closes automatically.
Ship to production
Domain, HTTPS, authenticated email, backups restored and tested: the details that make an app hold up.
Automate with AI
Assistants, request triage, automated assessments: AI where it saves time, never where it overpromises.
Break out of loops
Spot when the tool is going in circles, get back to the plan and slice the work differently instead of burning credits.
The tools we use, and you will too
Claude
Scoping, planning, writing and reviewing.
Lovable
Building interfaces and features.
Supabase
Data, authentication and storage; our learner data is hosted in Switzerland, in Zurich.
Stripe
Payments, webhooks and invoices.
GitHub
Code backup and history.
Probata Academy is not affiliated with any of these vendors. If a tool changes, the method still holds and the affected lessons are updated for 12 months.
One method: CADRE
Clarify, Architect, Divide, Realize, Examine: five steps, in the order we apply them on every project.
- C
Clarify
Week 1
A one-page brief written with Claude: users, roles, data, screens, what is out of scope.
- A
Architect
Week 2
Your tables and access rules decided before the first screen.
- D
Divide
Week 3
15 to 25 tasks, each with a definition of done you can check on screen.
- R
Realize
Weeks 3 to 5
Lovable builds, Claude reviews, and Plan mode comes before every sensitive task.
- E
Examine
Week 6
Role-by-role tests, including the ones that should fail, then going live.
Why a fully automated course
Available at any hour
Lessons, the AI assistant and assessments are available day and night, without waiting for a slot.
Feedback in minutes
Every milestone is assessed automatically, criterion by criterion, as soon as you submit it.
The same criteria for everyone
The assessment grid is published and identical for every submission: no mood, no luck.
Priced for small businesses
With no human intervention at every step, the course stays at a price a small business or a freelancer can afford.
Our commitments
Transparent automation
We say what is automated: AI assistant, milestone assessment, security analysis, certificate. No instructor, no coach, no live session, and we never claim otherwise.
Your data in Switzerland
Accounts, progress and uploads are hosted in Switzerland, in Zurich. Questions to the AI assistant are processed by Anthropic's model without your name or email address. Details are in our privacy policy.
Sourced figures
Every published figure shows its primary source, its date and a link. No figure without a source.
No fake testimonials
No invented reviews, no ratings, no student counters. We'd rather give you a demo app you can open yourself.
Security first
Access rules, secrets and backups are handled before launch, never after.
No income promise
We teach a method, not an income. Results depend on your project.
Content kept up to date
When a tool changes, the affected lessons are updated for 12 months.
The risk is on us
Full refund within 14 days if you've completed fewer than 2 modules of the Production Program.
