What is Codeway Product Meetup?
Learn how category-leading apps are made by the people who built them.
Powerful models are available to everyone. The advantage is turning them into products that feel personal, work reliably, and scale to millions.
In this edition of Codeway Product Meetup, the teams behind Learna and Retake open up the decisions behind two very different AI products: an adaptive tutor used by more than 50 million learners, and an identity-focused image experience with more than 150 million downloads.
Join us in Barcelona for the product choices, technical trade-offs, and wrong turns, shared by the people who built them.
The application layer is where
consumer value gets built.

Day's agenda: Two ways to own the application layer.
Route 1: Orchestrate
Teaching AI How to Teach (opens in a new tab)
Why Learna orchestrates several frontier models instead of leaning on one, and what it took to build an AI that teaches rather than chats.

Route 2: Own the Model
The Hard Part Isn’t Generation. It’s Identity. (opens in a new tab)
How Retake keeps every generation looking like you, and why a general model could not.

Q&A
Ask what you’re curious about. Product, scale, AI, culture, the messy parts.
Networking
Questions, product discussions, and a closer look at what’s behind the work.
Questions?
Is this a hiring event?
No. This is a networking event for curious people interested in technology, mobile apps, and global products, whether they are studying, working, exploring, or simply interested in the ecosystem. Codeway is hiring, and open roles are listed under Careers, but applying to the Meetup is not an application for a job.
Who should apply?
Ambitious people in tech and consumer products — across engineering, product, design, data, marketing, and operations. Recent graduates and experienced people are both welcome. You don’t need to be job-hunting to come.
How are attendees selected?
Spots are limited. Applications are reviewed based on relevance, interest, and fit with the event, and they close on October 9, 2026.
Where and when is it?
Codeway HQ in Barcelona, on the evening of October 21, 2026. Doors open at 18:30 and the talks run from 19:00; the full running order is in the schedule above. All sessions are in English.
When will I hear back?
We’ll confirm spots by October 13, 2026 — after applications close on the 9th and before the event on the 21st. Keep your eyes on your inbox.
Will there be more?
Yes. Codeway Meetup is a recurring series, both general and focused on specific tech domains, so there will be more editions ahead — AI, engineering, design, and beyond.
