No code. Everything stays confidential. Prepare any deal in 15 minutes.
You have a big deal coming. You already know how it goes: it becomes a fight over price. It doesn't have to be like that.
Most people haggle. They do not negotiate. My research shows that AI makes it possible to create value even when there is no trust.
You opened ChatGPT before a deal and asked it to help you prepare. Understand their alternatives. Find out what they really want. You already knew that. It does not know the person across the table, or how the last two rounds with them went.
It gets useful when you give access to your context and provide specific instructions: the answer stops being general and starts being about your deal.
Then you use it every week. It gives you a preparation brief, and you decide. After a while you stop calling it AI and you call it your assistant.
It is not quick. Creating the context, the memory and the instructions takes time, but what you build is yours and stays yours.
You walk in knowing how it will go. You are confident and relaxed. You know what they want and where they will push, and even if you don't trust them, you'll be able to move the negotiation beyond only price by bringing options that match what is important to them.
What you’ll learn
In five weeks you build a system around the way you negotiate, use it on a real deal, and keep it afterwards.
Prepare any deal in fifteen minutes
- Even the deal that lands on you at the last minute gets prepared properly.
- Not the general answer Microsoft Copilot or ChatGPT gives you. This is about your deal and the person you are meeting.
- You prepare an important negotiation between two operational calls, and get your evening back.
Know what you are walking into
- You see their world from the inside, and you know where they are going to push.
- You know what the contract actually says before you agree to anything.
- You know how they behave under pressure, and what they do the first time you say no.
Move the deal beyond price
- In a study with 120 executives, people who prepared this way took 48% more individual value out of the deal.
- Joint gains were 84% higher. Both sides left with more, which is what makes a deal hold.
- It works even when there is no trust between you, and that is the part with no precedent.
Practice against the person on the other side
- Practice against someone who behaves like the person you are about to face, and who does not go easy on you.
- Run the same negotiation as many times as you want, with nobody watching and no cost to getting it wrong.
- Walk in having already heard their hardest question, so you answer it in the room instead of thinking of it afterwards.
You come out with a system that is yours, and that the rest of your team can use.
- It is built around how you negotiate, so nobody else could have built the same one.
- It holds your preparation brief, your read on the person across the table, and a counterpart to practice against.
- You keep it after the course, and it works on the next deal, and the one after that.
Nothing new to approve
- It runs on the AI your company has already approved, whether that is Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
- Your deal information stays inside the tools your IT team already allows.
- No code anywhere. If you can write an email, you can do this.

Negotiation Professor | NegoAI Founder | 30 Years of Cross-Border Negotiations
For most of my career I prepared the way everyone does. On the plane, the night before, with whatever I could remember about the person I was about to meet. It was never enough.
I have negotiated internationally for 30 years, inside the Fiat Group in the United States, the United Kingdom and France, then running sales across Africa, the Middle East, Asia and the Pacific for a luxury goods company. Doctorate in cross-border M&A negotiation. I teach negotiation at Università Cattolica, POLIMI and the Collège des Ingénieurs in Turin.
Since November 2022 I have been building AI negotiation systems and measuring what they do to deals. They are in production now, for buyers and for sellers.
You will not become an AI expert on this course. You do not need to. I have already done that part.
Who this course is for
- Buyers: you come in late and have no time to prepare. It all comes down to price, and your internal clients are never happy.
- Sellers: you fight to hold the margin against a buyer who only looks at price. You negotiate inside the company to deliver what you sold.
- Consultants, trainers and mediators: your clients ask what AI does in negotiation. You want a path from someone you trust.
Prerequisites
You already negotiate for a living
You build the system on your own negotiation expertise. This is not Negotiation 101.
No AI or Coding Knowledge
No AI or coding background needed. It is 100% no-code. Works with any organizational platform: Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
It takes real work, and it is work only you can do
It is not quick. Nobody can write down how you negotiate except you. Every step has a guide, so you never face a blank screen.
What's included
Live sessions
Learn directly from Yadvinder S. Rana in a real-time, interactive format.
Written feedback on your own work, every week
Every week you send in what you built and I write back on it. Not a group answer, not a template, and nobody else sees it. I can only do this for a small group.
The build platform is included
You need a paid subscription to ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini or Claude, the one you already use. Everything else is on me. What you end up with is yours.
You have unlimited access to all the materials
The lessons, the recordings and the step-by-step guides. You go back to them when you build the next thing, months after the cohort has finished.
Community of peers
Five weeks with people doing the same work in their own companies, on the same cases, in the same week. You see what they built and they see what you built.
Certificate of completion
Issued when you finish. Together with the receipt and the invoice, it is what your company asks for when you put the course through expenses.

Highly professional and practical. I can highly recommend this program to professionals who negotiate or teach as part of their work. In addition, Yadvinder is very customer-focused and responds quickly with a personal touch.

Yadvinder’s course, “Build Your AI Negotiation System,” has been immensely valuable for me. I am very pleased with both Yadvinder and the way he teaches. He is highly structured, enthusiastic, and pedagogic, and he makes the material easy to understand and apply.
The combination of written materials, live sessions, and recordings helped me both reflect and work in a more structured way, so I could understand not only what to do, but also why each step matters in building my AI negotiation system.

Built on Research and Practice
In 2024 I ran a controlled experiment with 120 senior executives. The people who prepared with an AI system took 48% more individual value out of the deal. Joint gains were 84% higher, so both sides left with more. It held even when the two sides did not trust each other.
Research published in the Negotiation Journal in 2026 found that people who practiced against an AI counterpart negotiated better the second time than the first. That is why you finish this course with something to rehearse against, and not only something that prepares you.
