Operators building agents at a warm-lit workshop table during LEAP

The promise

Chaos in. A machine out.

You bring one real, ugly, time-sucking workflow. In one morning we turn it into an agent that runs it — for you, on your own tools, before you leave the room.

  1. 01

    Bring your chaos

    The inbox, the grant deadline, the follow-up that never happens. The one task that eats your week.

  2. 02

    Watch it get built

    Live in the room, your task becomes a real, running agent — on your own tools, no slides, no maybe.

  3. 03

    Walk out running it

    It's yours to keep, free. Running on your work when you get home. That's the morning.

The agent, made real

Not a concept. An object that runs.

These are the tasks the last room actually brought. Each one leaves as something that keeps working after the morning ends.

The agenda · 20 / 50 / 30

One morning. One real task.

ReCity Durham, 112 Broadway St, Durham, NC 27701 · Tue Aug 25, 2026 · 09:30–12:00 ET. Bring a laptop and one repeatable task you already know how to do by hand.

  • 09:30 – 10:00

    The story + the method

    Ronan's own path and the capture → synthesize → deploy method you'll use all morning.

  • 10:00 – 11:15

    The live build

    We take a real workflow from the room and build it into a working agent on stage — on real work, not a demo version.

  • 11:15 – 12:00

    Questions + connections

    Open Q&A and networking. Bring your task, compare notes with the other operators in the room.

In the room

Operators. Not presenters.

Three operators who run their own firms — the build, the proof, and the guardrails. Everything in the room is what they actually use, not theory, not slideware.

With support from

The firms behind the morning.

The venue, the two operators sharing the floor, and the companies whose work this method already runs.

The last room

Proof, not promise.

Not a conference. Not a webinar. A build room in Durham — real operators, real workflows, real agents that followed them home.

Real voices

Not testimonials. Operators on the record.

Real people who brought a real workflow and left running the agent. Names, faces, and the work they took home.

Ronan doesn't sell theory. He runs the framework on his own companies first, then ships it. If you're deciding whether to spend a morning with him — that's the call I'd make.

I have experienced a significant shift in my approach to operations, allowing me to redirect the time typically consumed by recurring tasks into shaping what 'The Park' will look and feel like.

A laptop and one real task you already know how to do by hand. That's it.
What it costs
Nothing. No pitch in the room, no upsell after. A free community session with the ReCity Network.

Want more than one agent?
After the morning, an optional guided path — the 4-week LEAP Deploy cohort — points the same method at a whole team of agents. Never required, never pitched in the room. See the cohort.

Four answers. Then you're in.
