Taste & Share the sweet stuff.
Caike you say?
Yes. Like Cake with AI baked in.
Caike is New Zealand’s IRL AI learning and creation community. For people who are smart, savvy, and ready to understand AI, automation, and creative tech — but don’t yet know where to start. Or have tried on their own but have gotten a bit lost in the language.
We gather over cake and conversation to learn, create, and build a future where tech feels human — and success is shared. We pass on recipes (and create new ones) for collective success.
But here’s the sweet bit. We bake in the deliciousness and socialness of a supper, book or run club. Think matcha, vino, and cake over clever conversation and practical workshops with AI leaders, creators, change makers and entrepreneurs.
We make AI feel un-intimidating, un-tech, and human again. Meeting around tables – not screens. (Well, we lie…there will be some screens so we can test & learn in real time).
Why & who the Caike for?
-
The future needs more variety at the table — tasting, testing, remixing, and rewriting the recipe.
AI is reshaping how we work, create, earn, and express ourselves. But women and non-binary people are still underrepresented in the tools shaping it.
When we learn together, we:
• build new income streams
• automate our work and businesses
• make side hustles sustainable
• shape workplaces that work for us
• create AI agents that actually help
• unlock creativity in new ways
• close confidence gaps
• rise togetherThe world is baking a new era. Caike makes sure you have a seat — and a spoon.
-
AI is fresh out of the oven. The recipe is still being written. And anyone can learn it — especially together.
Those who learn AI now will shape:
• the next stories,
• the next businesses,
• the next ways of working,
• the next communities we build.You don’t need experience — you need curiosity and community.
-
In a world full of screens, human connection is a necessity. That why connection clubs are having their moment.
IRL Caike learning gatherings allow Caikers to:
• Ask questions without judgment
• Feel curiosity and creativity spark in real time
• Form meaningful friendships around shared growth
• Come together after work / outside of parent time to enjoy some “grown up” learning time
Remote work has scattered us. Social media has flattened conversation. Caike brings people back into the room, where energy, laughter, and collaboration happen face-to-face.
-
Caike welcomes anyone who’s ever thought: “Hmmmm I’m curious about AI…but…how?”
You’ll love Caike if you want to:
• feel confident using AI
• automate your business or job
• grow your side hustle
• future-proof your career
• learn IRL, not online
• meet thoughtful humans
• help create better futures
• rewrite some recipes along the way
Learn AI like a recipe — step by step, layer by layer. Then create your own method.
Step 1. “Caike Club”
Supper club learning events
Gather → Learn →
Learn AI over a series of 4x weeks.
Demystify AI. What it is, what it isn’t, and why it matters for how we live and work.
The ethics of AI, and the opportunities. Building with intent, society and our planet in mind.
Everyday automations, prompts, workflows, and simple agents that save real time.
Creative play: prompting, prototyping, Vibe Code, AI agents & automations.
An intimate private table of Caikers. Together with a host and AI leader / builder. Catered with delicious cakes each event.
Our first table will be serving Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland very soon.
Step 2. “Make with Caike” Supper club creator events
Create & bake → Share →
Make, create & launch with AI. For real, IRL.
Over a series of 8x weeks.
Learn-by-doing alongside engineers, mentors & brand partners.
Build something meaningful — a workflow, an automation, a business tool, a creative spark.
Come with an idea or insight, or share one.
Build and experiment on it together. All ideas go on the table to build together.
Commercialised Projects: Shared revenue from cohort-built ideas. Shared success model for commercialised ideas
If something created at the table becomes real (ie. A real product, service or brand launched) we share the sweetness — lightly and ethically with our profit share model.
A table of next-level Caikers ready to build and create more. Together with a host and AI leader / builder. Catered with delicious cakes each event.

Who’s in the Caike Club?
-
Meet Kimberley. A creative director, brand strategist, community builder, yogi and now an AI Dreamer.
With 13 years experience creating campaigns at NZ & London’s independent & largest advertising agencies, to freelance consulting while creating Picky Images and Stretchy Yoga, Kimberley loves building brands & communities from the ground up.
Once terrified that AI would steal her job, she’s now beyond excited at the opportunities, businesses, products & services which we can create and design for ourselves in the age of the AI Gold Rush. Quite possibibly for the first time ever, if we can imagine it, we probably can make it. And commercialise it, making it something which humans want to gobble up for the greater good.
She plans to help bake AI into the worlds of more humans, and in turn create more business, economic, social and environmental good for their own lives. Success for Kimberley with Caike Club in 2026 would be to enable 12 humans to advance their careers, evolve their businesses or create something entirely new, particularly in the realms of health, wellness, sustainability, small business, financial literacy & education. That would truly be the icing on the cake. -
Caike Club learning events and ongoing making cohorts will be led by leading AI creators, entrepreneurs, YouTubers, engineers, business owners, educators and coaches. Those with skin in the game & real world experience.
If you’re keen to get involved and add your magic ingredients, email Kimberley. -
We need the leaders in the the AI, education, culture and branding space to help us on our mission to bake more leaders and rise together.
Brands, SAAS platforms, creators & actual cake bakers get in touch with Kimberley.

Baked with intent.
We’re mindful of the energy it takes to learn, make, and bake new ideas. Caike will rise with intention — considering the social and ethical impact of AI in everything we learn, build, and review. We’re also doing our due diligence to decide where our donations, support, and community contributions can do the most good.
