From Idea to App with Adam Burgh and AI Vibe Coding

I recently had a front-row seat at New Tech Northwest for Adam Burgh’s presentation on AI Vibe Coding — and it flipped a switch for me. I’m not a developer, but Adam showed how AI can help anyone become one.

Adam, founder of We Build With AI, walked the audience through how people with no coding experience can start building apps and prototypes using AI. His clarity and enthusiasm made the concept feel within reach for everyone in the room. By the end, it wasn’t about “learning to code” — it was about learning to create.

Before the presentation, Adam gave me a preview of what his organization is doing. Through hackathons, hands-on trainings, and strategic workshops, We Build With AI helps individuals and teams unlock creativity, experiment confidently, and collaborate more effectively across technical and business functions.

These programs don’t just teach tools — they help companies bridge the gap between business and engineering, empowering non-technical talent to innovate faster and think bigger. It’s an approach that turns curiosity into capability, and capability into momentum.

What You Can Do Next

If you’ve ever wanted to build your first AI-powered app or explore what’s possible with agentic coding, check out Adam’s upcoming events at luma.com/adamburgh.

Organizations interested in partnering for a workshop or hackathon can connect directly with Adam Burgh here on LinkedIn or via events@webuildwithai.org.

Seattle’s tech community has always thrived on curiosity and collaboration — and what Adam is building with We Build With AI captures both perfectly.
