Accelerator · Why 90 minutes

Deep working sessions, not quick calls.

Forty minutes is enough to review progress and get you unstuck. Ninety minutes is enough to actually build: understand the concept, write the code, hit the bug, fix it together and plan what comes next — without watching the clock.

  • Learn a concept properly
  • Review your code line by line
  • Debug together
  • Pair program on your project
  • Design a new feature
  • Review your architecture
  • Deploy what you built
  • Plan your next phase

For $70 a month more than Guided — about $2.30 a day — Accelerator gives you 90-minute sessions instead of 40, code reviews as often as you like, deployment and portfolio help, the Real Project Promise and the 90-Day Momentum Guarantee.

Real Project Promise

Leave with software you can show — not just lessons watched.

On Accelerator and Career Pro, your roadmap is built around real projects. Your mentor helps you choose, plan, build, review and deploy each one — so you finish with GitHub repositories, live projects under your own name, and the confidence to explain your code.

  1. Learn
  2. Build
  3. Review
  4. Improve
  5. Deploy
  6. Showcase

Which plan is right for me?

Pick the sentence that sounds like you.

Still unsure? After your two free classes your mentor recommends one plan, based on your goal and the time you really have.

Guided

“I want guidance.”

You mainly need direction and a steady weekly session with a developer, and you are happy to practise on your own in between.

→ Guided

Best for most students

“I want to build faster.”

You want to build real projects, not just learn concepts — with enough time each week to write, debug and review code together.

→ Accelerator

Career Pro

“I want maximum access and maximum speed.”

You have a deadline — a career change, a job search, interviews or a portfolio to finish — and want three sessions a week with your mentor.

→ Career Pro

Two free private classes

Meet your mentor before you pay anything.

Two 30-minute private classes. No card, no obligation, and a plan recommendation at the end.

Free class 1

Your Roadmap Session

Diagnosis first: your goals, experience, timeline and gaps — turned into a clear learning direction.

Free class 2

Your First Coding Session

Learn or build something useful together, with real feedback. Then your mentor recommends one plan.

Want more out of class 2? Try the free Skill Check or Build Challenge between the classes — your mentor will pick up from your results.

Guarantees

You do the work. We share the risk.

Live in 30 Days Guarantee

Your first project live in 30 days, or your first month back.

In your first week your mentor agrees one small first project with you, like a personal page or a simple tool, and helps you put it online. If it is not live by day 30, we refund your first month in full, on any plan.

A promise about what we deliver, not a job guarantee.

You do three things:

  1. Agree a small first project with your mentor in your first 7 days. We suggest one if you have no idea.
  2. Come to at least 75% of your private sessions in your first 30 days.
  3. Do the work your mentor sets each week.

Then, if it is not live by day 30, message us within 7 days. No forms and no proof to chase. Live means anyone can open it at a public web address. Any real doubt is decided in your favour.

Two free private classes

Meet your mentor and write real code before you choose a plan. No card needed.

14-day refund

If the mentorship is not right for you, tell us within 14 days of your first payment and we refund that first month in full, on any plan. You don’t need to give a reason.

90-Day Momentum Guarantee

Accelerator and Career Pro: follow your agreed roadmap, attend your sessions and complete the assigned work. If you still miss the 90-day project milestone you agreed with your mentor, we keep mentoring you at no additional mentorship fee, for up to 60 more days.

How ZAM works

Four steps, repeated until you build on your own.

  1. Step 1

    Understand your goal

    We learn where you are and where you want to go.

  2. Step 2

    Build your roadmap

    Your mentor creates a path based on your skills, available time, and goals.

  3. Step 3

    Learn by building

    Complete practical exercises and real projects with mentor feedback.

  4. Step 4

    Keep improving

    Your roadmap changes as you progress toward larger projects, deployment, portfolio, and career readiness.

Pricing questions

Before you choose a plan.

You do not have to choose now. Your mentor recommends one plan after your two free classes.

Which plan should I choose?

Most students choose Accelerator: 90-minute sessions are long enough to build, debug and review real code together every week. Choose Guided if you mainly need direction and accountability, and Career Pro if you have a deadline and want three sessions a week. If you are unsure, start with the two free classes and your mentor will recommend one.

Is message support really 24/7?

You can message at any hour on every plan, on WhatsApp or dashboard chat, and Zami AI answers instantly, day or night. Your mentor replies during working hours (Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm Malaysia time (GMT+8), excluding Malaysian public holidays): the same working day on Guided, with priority on Accelerator and highest priority on Career Pro.

How much time do I get with my mentor on each plan?

Guided: four private 40-minute sessions a month (2 hours 40 minutes). Accelerator: four private 90-minute sessions a month (6 hours). Career Pro: twelve private 90-minute sessions a month, about three a week (18 hours). Every plan also includes the weekly group Q&A call. Unused sessions do not carry over to the next month.

Can I pay for 3 months upfront?

Yes, on any plan. Pay for 3 months at once and you get 20% off. The 14-day refund and the Live in 30 Days Guarantee still cover your first month; after that, the rest of a prepayment is not refundable.

Can my price go up?

Your monthly price is the one shown when you enrol. If prices change, we give you at least 30 days' notice before it affects you, and months you have already paid, including a prepayment, are never repriced. Students who enrolled at a founding price on or before 10 November 2026 keep it for as long as their membership stays active.

What is the Real Project Promise?

On Accelerator and Career Pro, your roadmap is built around real projects. Your mentor helps you choose, plan, build, review and deploy them, so you finish with GitHub repositories and live projects under your own name. It is a promise about the help you get; how many projects you finish depends on your starting point and the time you put in.

Can I try ZAM before paying?

Yes. New students start with two free private classes and no card. The first maps your goals and level into a roadmap; the second is a real coding session. Afterwards your mentor recommends the one plan that fits you.

What if I pay and it is not right for me?

Tell us within 14 days of your first payment and we refund that first month in full, on any plan. You don't need to give a reason.

What is the Live in 30 Days Guarantee?

On every plan, your mentor agrees one small first project with you in your first 7 days and helps you put it online. If you come to at least 75% of your private sessions and do the work your mentor sets, but the project is not live by day 30, message us within 7 days and we refund your first month in full. Any real doubt is decided in your favour. It applies once per student, and it is not a job or salary guarantee. The full conditions are in our terms.

What is the 90-Day Momentum Guarantee?

On Accelerator and Career Pro, you and your mentor agree a 90-day project milestone in writing. If you attend your sessions and complete the assigned work but do not reach it, mentoring continues at no additional mentorship fee for up to 60 more days. It is not a job or salary guarantee. The full conditions are in our terms.

Can I change plans later?

Yes. Upgrade or downgrade as your goals and schedule change. Changes take effect from your next billing cycle, at the new plan’s current price.

Do I have to sign a long-term contract?

No. Plans are billed monthly and you can stop at the end of any paid month. Paying 3 months upfront for 20% off is optional.

Is Zami different on each plan?

No. Zami is the same on every plan. It works inside your ZAM learning journey — your roadmap, lessons, submissions and progress — so its help is connected to what you are actually learning. The plans differ in human mentor time, not AI.

Can complete beginners join?

Yes. ZAM is built for absolute beginners. Your first free class sets your starting point, and the roadmap is built from there. Guided is a good fit for students on a limited budget; you can move up whenever you want deeper sessions.

Can I learn while working full time?

Yes. Sessions are scheduled around your availability, and your mentor sets weekly milestones that fit the time you actually have.

Will ZAM guarantee me a job?

No. ZAM helps you build practical skills, real projects, a stronger portfolio and interview readiness, but employment depends on many things outside our control. We do not guarantee a job, salary or income.

Two private classes. No card. Your mentor recommends one plan afterwards.
