Question 1

Who is Rebel Glitch for?

Accepted Answer

Beginners and hobbyists who want a working IoT project without a long course, tinkerers tired of losing weeks to coding slog, and anyone ready to direct the build while AI writes the code.

Question 2

What is the free live workshop?

Accepted Answer

Our front door — free live sessions on Rebel Glitch, not a long course. Register at /webinar with your name and email, then click the join link we send. No extra apps. No kit required.

Question 3

Do I need microcontrollers or IoT hardware?

Accepted Answer

No. Most people follow along without a board. We program hardware live on camera using AI. You leave knowing how that loop works. Kits from the shop are optional later if you want to repeat it on your own desk.

Question 4

What does “IoT builder” mean?

Accepted Answer

You decide what the device should do. AI writes most of the code. A short live session beats months of theory. Tools like the Rebel Vault (DeskMemory) keep pinouts and prompts in one place if you want them — they are not required to join.

Question 5

Why short webinars instead of a long course?

Accepted Answer

Long courses kill momentum. Most of an IoT project used to be coding time — AI collapsed that. Two 60-minute sessions show you how hardware is programmed with AI. Longer training is optional if you want it after.

Question 6

How long does the upskill path take?

Accepted Answer

You start building project work early in Tier 1. Each tier has a minimum 21-day timer before the next unlocks — even if you've passed the assessment — because speed-running videos doesn't make the work real. The full path through six tiers plus Rebel Guild takes months at a realistic pace. The free webinars are two short sessions; the subscription path is optional if you want more.

Question 7

Why is there a 21-day timer between tiers?

Accepted Answer

We want people who build real projects, not binge content to tick boxes. Skill needs time on the work. Once 21 days have elapsed and you've met completion requirements, the next tier unlocks.

Question 8

What is the Rebel Vault (DeskMemory)?

Accepted Answer

Your IoT-builder workspace on Windows — memory packs, project logs, and AI workflows in one place. Free to download. Webinar registrants get a Starter Vault. Learn more at https://deskmemory.app.

Question 9

Do I need another app to join the webinar?

Accepted Answer

No. Webinars run on Rebel Glitch. Just your name and email. Click the link we send — you are in. You do not subscribe to any other service.

Question 10

What is the Rebel Guild?

Accepted Answer

The Rebel Guild is our builder community. Short live webinars are the front door. Join from /guild or start at /webinar. Longer Guild rituals can grow later.

Question 11

What support do I get?

Accepted Answer

Send us a message for direct questions, shop, and hardware support. Free live workshops on Rebel Glitch, tier-based training, and the newsletter for dates and tools.

Question 12

How affordable is Rebel Glitch compared to bootcamps?

Accepted Answer

Tier 1 is R250 for your first month, then R350/month while you're on Tier 1 — AI-assisted IoT and web building, community, and project work from day one. Monthly subscription scales by tier: Tier 2 R550, Tier 3 R550, Tier 4 R650, Tier 5 R750, Tier 6 R850, and Rebel Guild membership R350/month (unlocks after Tier 6). You pay for the level you're in; completed tiers stay included. Optional IoT kits are sold separately if you choose that track. Compare that to bootcamps costing R20,000–R80,000+ — you get live-session speed and a GitHub trail of real projects for far less. See /pricing for subscriptions.

Question 13

How does Tier 1 pricing work?

Accepted Answer

Tier 1 is R250 for your first month, then R350/month while you remain on Tier 1. You learn to direct AI, build GUIs and branded web work, and put projects on GitHub — not syntax drills for their own sake. Tier 1 is your proving ground on the path through six upskill tiers and into Rebel Guild membership. Complete at your pace; your project list grows as you go.
