The technical revolutions that enabled being able to build NEXT
What NEXT is all about - Video-first approach for customer interactions to bring the best empathy to users, what they say and how they say it
How NEXT helps with organizing and understanding qualitative data
How NEXT helps generating answer to questions, and back it up with clips from customers conversations to create the trust that is so needed from AI
How NEXT helps accelerating our workflow - generating a PRD or a bug report
Systems that NEXT is integrated with and where users and their inputs are coming from
The trusted co-pilot - what type of questions a Product Manager can ask NEXT and get great results?
How can CEOs that are usually remote from their users, can develop a deep empathy for their users?
And much more!

EP 91 - Startups: Prodhub with Sumeet Rana

Continuing our second edition of the startup series, in this episode, Matt and Moshe are joined by Sumeet Rana, Founder & CEO of Prodhub.
Prodhub was built to become the Github for Product Managers, with the vision of reducing all the repeatable work product people have when they need to define again and again many common product features that every product has. Think about user registration, login, licensing, and so many more!
Experiencing this first hand in the different product management roles Sumeet had at Disney and Expedia, he decided to do something about it and build a solution. Prodhub helps Product Managers by auto-generating PRDs and user stories or using a pre-built library of user stories.
We had great time chatting with Sumeet, and learn about:
- How Sumeet discovered the problem that Prodhub solves, and how he researched and validate it
- How Prodhub solves that problem, and the many ways it can be used to improve product managers work
- What he learned from working at Disney and Expedia on how to build products
- Where product teams should focus their efforts, to create unique value
- Being inspired by Github for developers, and how Prodhub create similar focus for product people
- His journey as a founder and where Prodhub is right now in this startup journey
- How do we make sure we don’t stop innovation even with the things that were developed many times before?
- The risks in GenAI vs the value of saving time
- What is coming next for Prodhub, and the future of GenAI
- And much more!
