Be The Auditor
AI Makes Unstoppable
Master smart contract auditing. Use AI as your unfair advantage. Build a career that pays more than most people think is possible.
Can't AI Just Do The Auditing?
AI tools are impressive. But here's what most people miss about smart contract security:
AI Alone
DANGEROUS- Finds pattern-matching bugs only
- Hallucinates fixes with confidence
- Misses economic & game-theory logic
- Can't understand protocol context
- Creates false security confidence
Knowledge Alone
BECOMING OBSOLETE- Slow, tedious, exhausting
- Limited coverage on large codebases
- Human cognitive limits compound
- Misses patterns AI catches instantly
- Losing competitiveness fast
AI + Deep Fundamentals
THE WINNER- Catches everything AI finds — plus more
- Validates, rejects, and directs AI output
- Catches economic & novel attack vectors
- 10x throughput on large audits
- Commands premium rates in the market

Course Overview
FAQ
Happy to tell more! It is going to be an intensive course fully aimed at forming you as a professional in smart contract hacking, supplying you will all the required materials for this.
The course consists of 2 parts for the most comprehensive learning experience:
Part 1: 119 videos 🎥 13 hours of learning ⏱ 20 exercises 💻
Part 2: 200 videos 🎥 20 hours of learning ⏱ 30 exercises 💻
The materials also include advanced bonus guest lectures by top-notch professionals in the sphere on how to advance in the industry, secure a job in the auditing firm or become a fully booked private auditor.
These are some of the chapters that will be covered in the course:
- The EVM in-depth
- Flash Loan Attacks
- Oracle Manipulation Attacks
- ReEntrancy Attacks
You would need to possess or obtain some basic knowledge of:
- Javascript and Solidity programming language
- How blockchains work
I would suggest learning solidity in a fun way for free by going through a short and interactive CryptoZombies course.
Finally, I would really recommend going through Bitcoin and Ethereum whitepaper to make sure you are fully prepared to rock it.
Sure! You can submit your payment through Stripe and PayPal.
We designed a closed Discord community exclusively for our students to support them as they move through the materials of the course and interact with each other and with the creators of the course!
This community will provide the participants with a platform to connect with fellow students, discuss course topics, ask questions, and share their experiences.
All of the course materials (lectures and exercises) are pre-recorded, so you can conveniently move through the content of the course at your own pace. Live sessions will also be included in the form of Q&As to have all of the remaining questions answered and connect you to other professionals in the field.
There will be more information about the live sessions coming up in announcements, so make sure to stay tuned on social media:
Full completion of the course material would depend on the speed of material consumption and on time allocated by you daily. It is estimated you should be able to complete all the materials of the course in 3 months.
If you like to see your to-do list full of checks and would like to get to looking for your dream position the soonest, by allocating 4-5 hours per workday, you are estimated to complete the course in a month.
If you prefer to consume the material in a more paced tempo, feel free to spend 2-3 hours consuming the material, meaning you would finalize it in 1.5 - 2 months.
The course is designed for students with a wide range of knowledge levels to help them deepen their understanding of smart contract hacking concepts and practices.
While the course may be more beginner-friendly in some areas, it also covers advanced topics such as flash loans, oracle manipulation, DAO and governance attacks.
By completing this course, you will be able to apply your knowledge to find vulnerabilities, create proof of concepts, and adopt the "attacker's" mindset. This will be valuable for participating in auditing contests, finding bugs in bug bounty programs, and increasing your chances of getting a job as a junior smart contract auditor in a web3 security firm.
Obtaining a deep understanding of the concepts covered in the course will significantly increase your chances of getting a job as a junior smart contract auditor in a web3 security firm. While we do not guarantee an employment spot upon completion, thoroughly going though the course materials will largely boost your skills to make a leap in the industry.
It's a fair question — and the answer is nuanced. AI tools are genuinely powerful and will find pattern-matching bugs. But they also hallucinate fixes, miss economic and game-theoretic vulnerabilities, and can't understand protocol context without expert guidance.
The principle is simple: garbage in, garbage out. If you don't understand reentrancy, oracle manipulation, or flash loan mechanics deeply, you can't evaluate whether the AI's output is correct, missed something critical, or created a false sense of security.
The most effective auditors aren't the ones replacing AI — they're the ones directing it. Deep fundamentals are what turn AI from a liability into a 10x force multiplier.
The course is intentionally built around the fundamentals that make AI tools effective. When you deeply understand EVM internals, attack vectors, and DeFi mechanics, you gain the ability to:
- Ask AI the right, precise questions during an audit
- Validate AI findings and instantly spot hallucinations
- Recognize the gaps in AI's coverage that require human judgment
- Build systematic AI-augmented audit workflows
Understanding the fundamentals at depth is exactly what makes AI actually useful — rather than a tool that generates plausible-sounding but dangerous output.
More viable than ever — and here's why: AI has created a market reset. The barrier to entry for low-quality, pattern-matching auditing has dropped. That's actually good for experts.
What's happening right now:
- Protocols and DAOs dealing with AI-generated code need human experts who can validate it
- The gap between what AI auditors catch vs. what expert auditors catch is widening — and the market pays the premium
- First movers who combine deep knowledge with AI tools are experiencing a 3-5 year competitive advantage window
- Earning potential for senior AI-augmented auditors has never been higher ($300-500+/hr)
The auditors who will be most valuable in 2028 and beyond are those building their fundamentals today.
