What you get. What it costs. Who it’s for.

Build Your First AI Agent is about 6.9 hours if you work through the lab. These are our estimates based on the reading, exercises, and practice, not measured completion times. Your pace will vary.

Loaded Tokens Pro
The pricing page lists Pro at $19 a month or $190 a year. Checkout is closed, so that price is not a charge. The learning shelf adds 120 original architecture questions, a timed 60-question mock, worked examples, and an agent lab where you add a tool, save a note, and check that a server on your own computer refuses requests that lack the right access token. The sample certificate from Loaded Tokens LLC is not accredited.

By The Loaded Tokens desk. The estimates use 180 words a minute for lessons, the minute count written on each lab and worksheet, 90 seconds for each practice question, and 120 minutes for the mock. The mock reuses the same questions, so those two hours are a second pass. Confirm Coursera and Udacity prices at checkout. This page does not quote their completion or job statistics.
