Built specifically for founders who've been left out of traditional startup ecosystems.

MEET WILLA.
Your personal Startup Coach, powered by AI.
Here’s something you won’t find anywhere else:
Wild Academy's proprietary AI Companion.
This isn't ChatGPT with a business degree. WILLA is trained exclusively on Wild's curriculum and real entrepreneurial expertise from thousands of coaching hours from real founders and mentors. It's like having a business advisor in your pocket, 24/7.
WHAT WILLA DOES:
Helps you develop and refine business concepts.
Evaluates your ideas with real-world context.
Guides you through product development decisions.
Answers your questions when you’re stuck at midnight.
Provides consistent, high-quality guidance at any stage.
HANDS-ON WORKSHOPS, GUIDED BY WILLA.
Most platforms give you information. Wild Academy isn’t just about learning entrepreneurship, it’s about doing the work.
With 48 guided, founder-first workshops, you’ll work through the same exercises entrepreneurs need to grow: customer research, messaging, metrics, product decisions, and more. Our Workshops are interactive, hands-on sessions designed to help you apply what you’re learning in real time. They bridge the gap between understanding an idea and actually building something from it.
WILLA acts like an experienced (and very expensive) business coach, asking thoughtful questions, giving feedback, and helping you turn knowledge into action.
These workshops are optional, but they’re where transformation happens. They are designed to help you move beyond theory and into action, so you’re not just consuming content, you’re building real skills for your real business.
The best part? You get individualized support without waiting for office hours or booking appointments. WILLA adapts to your pace, your business, and your questions.
A Wild Academy experience you won’t find anywhere else.
