What is Sessions?

Learn From Operators Who've Actually Done It

Sit in live sessions with founders who've built and exited real companies, and ask them your questions directly. Not recorded lectures. Real answers to your business, in real time.

Get Direct Feedback On Your Startup

Bring your actual bottleneck to office hours and get it audited live by people who've solved it before. Walk out knowing your real constraint and your next move, instead of guessing alone.

Never Build Alone Again

Join 150+ founders shipping and selling in public every week. The pace pulls you forward, and the feedback is honest, specific, and from people in the exact same fight.

Every System You Need To Ship And Scale

Get the plug-and-play playbooks operators used to go from zero to revenue, tested and rewritten dozens of times. Run them in week 3, keep them for life.

What our students have to say:

"Six weeks ago, I joined Alif with a problem, not a business. Alif helped turn that frustration into a focused idea and tangible product. The beta is live on web, and purchases are already happening."

Questions before you apply

Frequently Asked Questions

When does the next cohort start?

The next Sessions cohort starts on August 3, 2026. Applications are reviewed before the cohort begins so we can keep the room focused and useful.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You do not need to know how to code. We help you use the tools that make sense for your idea, and Imran brings 10 years of software engineering experience to help founders understand what to build and how to ship it.

What if I do not have an idea yet?

That is fine. We help you find and pressure-test an idea based on your skills, market access, and the problems you are close enough to understand.

What if I already launched or I am stuck on traction?

Sessions can still help. If you already have something live, we work on tightening the offer, finding the right audience, improving your launch assets, and building a repeatable path to users and revenue.

Does this work if I am building alone?

Yes. The program is built for solo founders and people building while working a 9-5. You get structure, operator feedback, and a founder community around you while you move.

Will Sessions help me raise money?

We can help you understand your pitch, your story, and what investors look for, but we do not guarantee fundraising and we do not write checks ourselves.

What will I have by the end of six weeks?

The goal is to leave with a shipped product or live revenue experiment, first users, sharper launch assets, a clearer sales motion, and a community you can keep building with after the sprint.

Do you take equity?

No. Sessions does not take equity. You keep 100% of your company.
