Right now, someone with less talent than you is getting paid for AI work.
They are not more creative, and they did not start with better tools. They just learned the full workflow before you did, found the clients, and started charging. Meanwhile, here is what stands in your way:
This was never a talent problem. Nobody showed you the whole picture, and the window where these skills feel rare is closing fast. You don't need another tool or tutorial, you need the full system, the workflows that ship real client work, and a room of people already doing it. That's what GenHQ is.
Our Members' Commercial-Grade Work
Some came in as Hollywood pros. Some had never opened an AI tool. A few weeks later they are all shipping work like this.

BEWARE !!! This community will make you cancel all other paid AI communities. Join only if you are ready for 1. Canceling other ai groups and saving $$$ 2. Serious about learning some great AI skills and not just wanting templates. 3. Meet some genius creators and creatives and community members who are from around the work willing to help and support. 4. Get answers to your question (how basic or complex) from the founder himself on calls (no need to pay extra for that) My best investment 💪
The only academy that helped me find a job in the industry and win a Samsung competition, with tons of insightful lessons taught by leading creators in the industry. Thank you so much for everything! I highly recommend everyone to join this is the step toward success!!
"Three months in this community and I've tripled my income. New website, new skill set, and I'm now a full-time AI creative. If you're serious about learning AI and making money with it, there's nowhere better to spend your money. The educators here are the best on the planet." I cleared over 15K this month from AI work. Rourke is the best there is at teaching AI and making you want to do the work."
GenHQ is a truly amazing place to learn, grow, and build. It's not just about keeping an overview of new tools, models, and workflows.. I think the real value is that the focus is on actually building something with them, instead of only teaching how to use them.
When I joined the GenHQ I only played around with midjourney a bit. Fast forward one year. I met incredible people in the community, learned so many new workflows and tools and was able to make AI my fulltime job. GenHQ is the place to be in the AI space
GenHQ has been phenomenal at taking me from knowing nothing about generative AI video to being competent in its use, and to keeping me versed with the cutting edge as it evolves. I've approached it more out of curiosity than trying to develop a career making videos or ads, but I know many here HAVE created new careers for themselves based entirely on the knowledge and community they've found here. I'm running out of characters, so I'll finish by saying, you can't go wrong joining GenHQ.
I’m working at a a company as a Creative AI Producer Director thanks to the knowledge and experience that i’ve acquired in the last year at GenHQ, I love this community!
GenHQ has honestly been the best AI community I’ve been part of. There is so much to learn, from beginner to advanced, and the challenges keep you creating and improving. What I love most is the community. If you’re stuck, people genuinely help, answer questions, review your work and give useful feedback. Rourke has created an amazing space for anyone who wants to grow in AI.
Most of the AI tools in the video space i learn from here and implement in my AI video production agency too and it gotten me great client satisfaction im proud to be part of this group
I really appreciated the wide range of topics it covers. Without a doubt, it is currently one of the few truly valuable resources in the world of AI content creation.
My go to place for learning new concepts and techniques in the AI creative space. So much value here in the community.
I’ve been in the group now for almost a whole year and have learned a lot. The community is friendly as well as it puts you in position to actually benefit from the materials, the courses, the classroom, and as long as you put in the work, you will reap the rewards for investing into this community definitely worth the money that I’ve spent on the monthly subscription over this past year and also have made friends!
Thought I would test it out for a month. Was blown away by the amount of value they share and teach in this community. Been a member for nearly a year.
I’ve been here in the GENHQ community for almost a year. I can say, without a doubt, that there’s a constant delivery of information and insights here. It is, by far, the best community to learn, exchange information, and share ideas. What Rourke and the team have built here is truly something very solid.
Out of all Gen AI communities in all platforms, this is the best. Amazing skilled professionals like Rourke and the others. Amazing community. Helpful and humble people. And very very high value content. Everything is great here in Gen HQ.
Can't recommend GenHQ enough. Whether you're a total beginner or advanced, it's got you covered, incredibly complete content you won't find anywhere else. Rourke and the team are always there to help, and the networking is real, study partners, opportunities, everyone growing together. On a personal note, GenHQ gave me a career and Rourke has impacted my life more than I can put into words. If you're on the fence, just jump in. ❤️
I went from zero AI video knowledge to opening my own studio and making a living from these skills. The learning material is genuinely excellent, and they keep adding to it. Never feels like a finished course you’ve squeezed dry. The team behind GenHQ are generous with their time, and the community is the most supportive and active I’ve been part of. People actually show up for each other here.
This is THE place to be for creatives looking to leverage AI as a tool. With so many platforms, updates & noise online, it's so overwhelming to navigate the space alone; GenHQ makes it easier to stay focused on what actually moves the needle. Besides education, the most valuable component is community. You got people from all levels - from beginners to top-paid creatives - giving feedback, sharing insights and juicy opportunities. Rourke and the whole team are super passionate and knowledgeable.
This has been a great group to be apart of. Love the education you are getting. Staying up to date on latest models trends and real ways to improve your videos. The admins are great and respond quickly. Also the thing I love the most is how supportive the community is. You have some of the best feedback and genuine connections happen. My AI skills have improved tremendously worth every penny I've spent.
GenHQ has been an amazing experience for me so far. I came in here with about 10 months of genAI experience and quickly found out how much there was to learn. Since joining my quality of work and capabilities with these tools has drastically increased, I won the ExpressVPN big ad contest placing my ad in Times Square, and am now hitting $10k+ months doing client work. This community ensures I am always up to date on the best methods and new tools and I greatly recommend it to anyone considering!
This group is not only a great resource for learning, it is an amazing and supportive community. I highly recommend it to anyone starting out in generative AI and making a career out of it. Everyone is inspiring and the skills shared here are invaluable!
What sets GenHQ apart isn't just the depth of the resources — it's the community and how actionable everything is. I went from experimenting on my own to a structured process that landed me my first viral post within weeks. If you're willing to put in the work, the results follow. Couldn't recommend it more.
By far the best AI Community out here !! Highly recommended to everyone be it beginner or the pro, you will just love and learn from it
There’s no better place to dive deep into AI. With a community full of passionate enthusiasts and Rourke leading the way, we’re constantly learning and exploring new things in AI creative space. Also another huge value you won’t find just anywhere, Rourke regularly interviews top people in the AI and creative industries, bringing valuable insights, experiences, and knowledge to all of us. If you want to grow your AI skills, stay ahead of the curve, and aim for the top 1%. GenHQ is the one.
An amazing community filled with people who generally are trying to work towards a goal. Active weekly calls, and every now and then something within the modules is changing. There's no stale classroom where the creator only made a classroom one time and never updated. The classroom is always being constantly updated.
Takes money to make more money. You're going to get your money's worth AND so much more. Dude, if you're reading this, pick up the phone and start dialing. Create a few videos and walk into your local business and pitch them your creative AI services. You'll get everything you need to be successful in here, nobody is going to do the grind for you. Making awesome videos is nice, make it a living, not a hobby and you'll be well on your way to financial freedom. May the AI odds ever be in your favo
GenHQ has such a special place in the world of GenAI. I genuinely feel part of a community united by the same idea - creating meaningful work with AI. Rourke and the team share incredibly relevant resources, bring in amazing speakers who are at the top of the industry and who you often wouldn’t get to hear from otherwise, and have built such a strong culture of feedback and exchange between members and the team. Definitely one of the most valuable communities I’m part of 🩵
Hands down the best community on Skool. I have learned so much from Rourke and have been so blessed to have actually built real skills that people need right now and are paying good money for! Rourke and the team are so supportive and they really care about your success. I love it here!
Tons of top quality content, great education, supportive community, and cash prize contests as you learn! There''s a lot of inspiration at GenHQ! I learned a ton from Rourke and the guest speakers. Six months after I joined, I used my experience to get a job as an AI Creative Director at a marketing agency, and then I got nominated for a Webby! I met a great collaborator in the community. And just last week, I watched Simon Meyer's lessons and I learned even more! Big thanks to Rourke and team!
This is hands down the best community to learn about AI for image and video (and more). From the basics to the more advanced integrations for your workflows it's all here. The work is never sugar coated which is what I love. You have to put the work in, but you get the support. Rourke has a great team behind him but is also hands on and has the community's people (the learners) interest at heart. The amount of content and structure is again second to none. Thank you!
Joining Gen HQ has been my best move this year. My AI skills have completely levelled up thanks to Rourke and his team. The community is incredible, a space to share ideas, give feedback, and learn together.
GenHQ is amazing. Here you’ll find everything you need if you want to get serious about creative AI. New modules are frequently added to keep you up to date, taught by the best creatives in the world. For me, it opened up a whole new world!
My Skool journey began the day I broke my leg... seriously! 😂 I’d already been exploring AI, but Skool took that curiosity somewhere I never imagined. I learned, experimented, connected and turned those skills into real opportunities: multiple paid projects, a COO role, and now creating a movie trailer for a major-network submission. Skool didn’t do the work for me... it gave me the tools, community and inspiration to see what was possible. What a journey! And I’m just getting started! ❤️🚀♥️
I was looking for a like minded community where I could learn and grow using the best AI tools, learn about new emerging technologies, and have countless possibilities to collaborate and actually get paid for my creative output. Rourke and his team are beyond compare, I have been fortunate enough to be a part of this community and grow and learn alongside some of the most talented creatives I've ever encountered. Highly recommend joining if this sounds like something you're looking for.
The group helps me a lot, and I really like it. When I started, I joined to see what it was all about, not just the classroom classes, which aren't my main focus now since I've mastered many of the tools. While I do still check the videos when I need to learn something specific, the group of creatives on the platform, like Rourke and Ana V, and all the people who collaborate, and especially the community with their experiences, are a crucial digital asset for me.
GenHQ gives you so much inner, behind-the-scenes information about AI — all the tools, how they work — but what really stands out is how it helps you understand the bigger picture of what's happening across the industry. On top of that, the people here are great, and the amount of genuinely valuable information you get is hard to find anywhere else. Grateful to be part of it.
Exceptional is how I’d describe my experience in this community. I’ve always wanted to get involved in short film, ads and such. Now I feel like I have a chance. I love GenHQ. If you’re looking for detailed, hands-on, nuanced learning from actual creatives; shared knowledge and insights into the AI creative job space; a supportive, bad-ass community; want to accelerate your progress in the AI creative arena with one of the most committed, generous creative leaders, you’re in the right place.
In terms of quality of education, community involvement, and value, GenHQ is the best AI community to be a part of if you want education at a high level. GenHQ has helped hone my cinematic skills tremendously. You don't just get a "great job", you get actual feedback that actually makes you better. One of the best investments I've made into myself was joining GenHQ.
Member since October 2025 and it’s already paid for itself many times over — real freelance income, plus a working understanding of AI for ads, films, and everyday life. Two live events in, and this is one of the kindest, most helpful communities I’ve been part of. Rourke and the whole leadership team are patient, incredibly knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in every person here. I don’t think I could do this without Gen HQ.
This community is hands down the best community in Skool and probably past the boundaries of the app. It has helped hundreds of people create wealth through education in Generative AI and beyond. I can’t emphasize how much this community has brought to me and all my other colleagues. The community that Rourke and his incredible team has built here at GenHQ is something that will outlast us. This is the next big thing and I’m just glad I am here early.
GenHQ has been pivotal in my entrepreneurial journey. I’ve been here for 1 year now and I’ve met so many amazing people and continue to be impressed and inspired by the caliber of creative work that our members create on a daily basis. So much fun!!
Is GenHQ Right For You?
This is for you if…
- You want a real path and proper training, not 40 YouTube tabs and a guess
- You want AI creative work to become income, not just another hobby
- You want eyes on your work and people to ask the moment you are stuck
- You will actually make things, because that is the only place the skill comes from
This is not for you if…
- You want the money without doing the reps
- You are looking for a magic button instead of a skill
- You will collect modules and never create anything
- You go quiet the moment someone gives you honest feedback
What Members Asked Before Joining
Does the $497 yearly price really end September 30?
Yes. Join on the yearly plan by September 30 and your full first year is $497, which works out to $41 a month. From October 1 the yearly plan goes up. The quarterly and monthly plans are not changing.
Is it worth it?
One landed client covers it many times over. Members report deals from $500 to $82,000. The tool discounts alone can pay for the year, and every week you can enter a challenge to win $100 or more.
What will the tools cost me on top of the membership?
It depends on how much you generate and which models you use. You need three things: one all-in-one tool for image and video generation, an editing tool, and an LLM. The editor can be free, DaVinci Resolve is, and the LLM has a free tier, so the only real cost is the generation tool. A starter plan is usually under $50 a month, and that is plenty for the first few weeks. Members producing client work every day tend to spend $200 to $300 a month, because they generate more and use the top models, and by then it is a business expense the work pays for. Members also get up to 40% off the tools we teach.
Which tools do I start with?
Three. One all-in-one tool for image and video generation, an editing tool (free ones exist, DaVinci Resolve is one), and an LLM (we prefer Claude, but any will do). The Foundations walk you through your first image and first video with them in the first week. Everything else gets added only when a workflow needs it. You do not need ten subscriptions to start, and the training is built around workflows rather than tool features, so when a tool changes you keep the skill.
I'm not technical. Can I keep up?
Yes. The training starts at your first image prompt and builds from there. Complete beginners are landing client work inside weeks.
How is this different from free YouTube tutorials?
YouTube shows you a tool. GenHQ shows you the full workflow, how to price it, where to find clients, and gives you people to ask when you are stuck.
What if I want to cancel?
Cancel anytime, no contracts. Your access runs to the end of your term.
I don't have a portfolio yet. Can I still land clients?
Yes. The weekly contests and module projects build your portfolio as you learn, and the outreach training shows you how to land work without one.
How active is the community?
Live calls 5x a week, new wins posted daily, and Rourke and the GenHQ team are in there every day.
What languages are the trainings in?
Every training video is subtitled in 28 languages, so you can learn in your own: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, German, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Russian, Hindi, Arabic, Japanese, Korean, Indonesian, Turkish, Polish, Dutch, Vietnamese, Thai, Ukrainian, Filipino, Romanian, Croatian, Serbian, Greek, Swedish, Persian, Hebrew and Bengali.
A Month From Now, Two Things Will Be True
You'll be a month older.
Or you'll be a month older with real AI creative skills, a portfolio taking shape, and a network of the top 1% in creative AI, with job opportunities posted inside every week.
Most people are still watching tutorials. The people in this room are getting paid.

P.S. GenHQ is ranked #4 out of 180,000 communities on Skool. That doesn't happen with recycled content and a dead community. 551+ documented wins. $600K+ in member revenue. Rourke and the GenHQ team are in there every day. The only question is whether you'll be one of them. And if you want the year for $497, that price ends September 30.
