Our Story

We believe
AI should be
taught,
not sold.

Boffin Hub exists because the gap between "I have Claude" and "Claude changed how I work" is a teaching problem. So we teach, live, 1-to-1, inside your real work.

(Boffin · noun, British/Australian: A brilliant expert who actually does the work.)

Founders' note · 2026
From Jason & Julia
BH-001

We spent early 2025 writing tutorials. Good ones, we thought. Then we watched people read them, nod, and go back to working exactly as before. The tutorials weren't the problem. The distance was. Nothing changed until we stopped writing tutorials and started sitting next to people, inside their actual documents, their actual codebases, their actual deadlines. Twenty minutes into the first session, something worked, and their faces changed. That's the whole company. We just kept doing the thing that worked.

How we got here

From a question
to a hub.

Boffin Hub didn’t start as a company. It started as a habit, saying yes every time someone asked us to walk them through Claude, and it got out of hand.

Mar 2025

The question

Why does everyone have Claude and almost no one has results?

Jun 2025

First sessions

Sitting next to people beats every tutorial we ever wrote.

Sep 2025

The model takes shape

3–6 sessions to independence, then you don’t need us.

Jan 2026

Public launch

Boffin Hub opens to the public.

Today

Same model

The independence promise is now written into the offer itself.

The manifesto

What we
stand on.

"Held by everyone we hire,
printed in our handbook,
visible in every session."
– The team
Principle one

Real work,not demos.

You don’t learn Claude on toy examples. Every session runs inside your actual work.
01 / 04
Principle two

Independence,not dependency.

Coaching designed to end. If you still need us after six sessions, we’ve failed, so up to two further sessions are free. That’s not a slogan any more; it’s in the contract.
02 / 04
Principle three

Live,not recorded.

A recording can’t see where you’re stuck. A specialist can.
03 / 04
Principle four

Honestabout limits.

Claude can’t do everything. A specialist who pretends otherwise is selling you something.
04 / 04
The specialists

Practitioners, not
professors.

That’s the hiring bar. Every Boffin Hub specialist uses Claude daily in their own work; the coaching grows out of that practice.

Built by daily
practitioners.

Everything we teach, we do, every day, in our own work. Every Boffin Hub specialist has completed every one of Anthropic’s published Claude courses and then kept going, because our methods come straight from the workbench. We’re independent of Anthropic, which means the only thing we’re accountable to is whether you leave able to do this without us. We think that’s the better badge anyway.
