Thoroughly enjoyed the program
Thoroughly enjoyed the program. I appreciate that it is all implementation and not just theory.
I had zero experience with Xcode
I had zero experience with Xcode, and in just 20 days I was able to build and publish my first app. The iOS bootcamp gave me a clear path when I didn't know where to start. Highly recommend for anyone looking to launch their first app!
Learn to deploy apps quick with AI
This course helped me learn to deploy apps super quick! Like, I did 4 in a month..and most of them took at max 1 day to ship. I not even a developer. I really loved the course and learning all the truly powerful AI tools that are available. Thank you!
I'm always looking for tools to help…
I'm always looking for tools to help our traditional engineers get up to speed on vibe coding. The Startup Story courses are not just for beginners; they're for experienced developers who want to learn vibe coding in a concise, entertaining, and no-fluff format.
I was shocked that it actually worked.
They made it so that I could follow along, for not having any experience in app building I admit that I had to replay some lessons over and over again...never the less I took my time and eventually build someting. Me, not having any experience succeeded in building an app...I was shocked when it actually worked! Thank you.
The AI Builder Bootcamp was a fantastic experience!
The AI Builder Bootcamp was a gamechanger for me! It took me from tinkering with AI builds to deploying real working apps with official domains. I was able to create interactive lead magnets that can add huge value for my potential clients and I did so in just one week at a time for each! It was incredible and actionable value. Even if you think you’re really busy, sign up, show up, ship things, and you won’t regret it.
This Program Takes You From 0 to Hero. Full stop.
I started with 0 technical knowledge. By following the steps in the Starter Story program, I built and shipped my first tech product by myself within the week. More importantly, I now have the system, knowledge, and experience to do it again and again.
Starter Story bootcamps are awesome
I attended Starter Story's 4x4 bootcamp and it was awesome. I learned so much and enjoyed every moment. Best of all, I feel confident that I can continue to build on this. Thank you so much Alex & Starter Story Team!

crème de la crème experience
I was mixed when I first got it but soon just started loving what I was learning. Lazar did an excellent job of giving you the tools and systems to help you build but also think like a builder.
I have enjoyed this a lot and it has given me frameworks and skills that I can use forever.
In simple, its the best for learning to build and continuing to build.

the interviewers he brings on are making up numbers now saying a 15 year old made 165k in month? BS to sell his courses which i took learnt nothing
I am so happy I discovered starter…
I am so happy I discovered starter story! It literally led me back to building and applying my creativity on my passion projects. I work in car sales and auto repair so I used my expertise in my domain to create tools that speed up common tasks.
Finally a way to build apps without coding stress
I signed up because I’ve always loved the idea of building apps, but traditional coding has been stop and go for me… fun, but the syntax usually derails me from actually finishing projects. The AI App Bootcamp flipped that experience on its head.
The training hit every learning style (written, audio/visual, hands-on), and it was so well put together that following along felt easy and natural. I ended up building a group travel app that lets friends and family plan trips together, vote on ideas, and assign planning tasks… all in one place instead of messy text threads and emails.
What stood out most was how doable the whole process felt. The office hours, Slack community, and even their dedicated concierge made it super easy to get questions answered and stay on track. They also reminded us not to worry about building our “million dollar idea” right away, but instead to focus on learning the skills to eventually get there… which was such a refreshing perspective.
If you’ve ever wanted to build apps or tools but felt held back by coding, this program shows you just how possible it is. I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone curious about no-code and AI-powered app building.
Starter Story gave me the idea for my business
Starter Story gave me the idea for my business. I saw how someone built a site over the years to $14mil/yr and thought "why can't I do that?". I have no idea how to code or anything, but found a way to make it happen with tools we have today. Now we have thousands of users and an actual team.
They're legit.
Their free videos are great for tips and tricks (and stories). Their paid community is even better (I've been a part of it for a bit).
Since diving into their SEO program, my business is making more money.
Since diving into their program to make an app, I almost have an app ready to launch and sell to people.
10/10 recommend joining / watching the videos and creating something
Scammy tactics
Scammy tactics that lead users to sign up and then we are required to buy a subscription before we can access content. No way to delete my account. They now have a 'signed-up' user that they are monetizing, without my consent. I wish to delete my account with Starter Story - the website does not provide a way to do this, nor can I find any contact details. Very strange.

$59 /month and they generate stories though chatgpt i contacted a ceo and he said he never agreed to an interview
NOT A SCAM but TERRIBLE!
NOT A SCAM, BUT TERRIBLE. They sell a course that is basically a summary of a bigger course sold by someone else. Not a scam, because the course exist, will you learn anything? Problably not.
scamming company stole $395 then banned me
Terrible horrid company, paid out $395 for an ai app development course and not long after I had paid the slack group disappeared and access to the course was revoked the course was just gone along with my place in the group.
be careful don't trust them dont lose your money like I did
