Which option fits which reader

Builders Camp

AI building is included: Bootcamps on Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable, AI agents and vibe coding, among others.

EDIT.

Fits if you want one structured course taught in Portuguese on a fixed evening timetable, mixing product and project management. Schedule: Taught in Portuguese; live classes Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, 7 PM to 11 PM Lisbon time. Price: €2,700 for the course, VAT exempt; 8 interest-free instalments of €337.50, or 5% off for paying upfront.

Ironhack

Fits a career switcher aiming at a junior product role who wants a full-time or part-time bootcamp with career services and has a larger budget. Price: €7,500 (Portugal and Spain pages). It includes The bootcamp, 12 months of career services and one free industry exam (PSPO I or Microsoft Certified: AI Business Professional).

How do the prices compare with EDIT.?

EDIT. sells one course for one fee: €2,700 for the course, VAT exempt; 8 interest-free instalments of €337.50, or 5% off for paying upfront. That fee buys One course: 12 modules and 148 hours of live classes, a 52-hour capstone project with a final pitch, and a digital certificate. Each alternative prices differently, so compare what one payment buys rather than the headline number.

  • Builders Camp: €749 one-time (Lifetime) or €249 a month (Monthly), sales tax included. Either plan includes: All 40+ bootcamps (live and self-paced), all 9 learning tracks, 1:1 mentorship subject to availability, monthly live masterclasses and the archive, Quest Mode, templates, a certificate per completed bootcamp and community access.
  • Ironhack: €7,500 (Portugal and Spain pages). That buys The bootcamp, 12 months of career services and one free industry exam (PSPO I or Microsoft Certified: AI Business Professional).
  • Maven: Priced per course by each instructor; sampled AI and product courses cost $499 to $2,700. Pay per course; no all-courses subscription listed on maven.com.
  • Coursera: Coursera Plus €51 a month or €346 a year (prices shown to a visitor in Portugal). Monthly or annual subscription (Coursera Plus); 7-day free trial on monthly.

EDIT., Ironhack and Builders Camp all price in euros, so they line up directly. EDIT.: one course. Ironhack: one bootcamp. Builders Camp: €749 one-time for all 40+ bootcamps. EDIT.: €2,700 per course, VAT exempt. Ironhack: €7,500 (Portugal and Spain pages). In the same currency, Builders Camp Lifetime costs less than one EDIT. course or one Ironhack bootcamp. Maven prices in US dollars and each instructor sets the price: $499 to $2,700 per course, across the AI and product courses sampled. The EDIT. course is 200 hours and a Builders Camp bootcamp is 1 or 2 weeks, so this sets payment against payment, not course against bootcamp.

Coursera Plus costs less up front than Builders Camp Lifetime, so there the comparison is what is included. Coursera, as of 28 September 2026: Self-paced recorded video, quizzes and projects; no live classes. No 1:1 mentorship; IBM Product Manager lists mock interviews and resume support. Builders Camp: Bootcamps run live in cohorts and are also available fully self-paced. 1:1 mentorship included: book sessions with 40+ mentors and directors, subject to availability.
