The Product First Principles Newsletter
AI products have the potential to create massively valuable user experiences, products, and businesses.
But they can also be expensive to operate. Beyond that, the large majority of new products fail—and AI products are no exception. The biggest reason is that too many builders create an AI product customers are not willing to pay enough for to cover the costs of running it. Or worse, customers just don’t want it at all.
The founders, executives, and product leaders who understand both the value potential and the economics of AI products are going to be the ones who:
- Build products customers love
- Get customers to pay for them
- Generate sustainable revenue & profit
- And build a profitable business
So, if you’re asking yourself, “How do I build AI products customers actually pay for? How do I scale a team that ships AI products? How do I make AI economics work for my business?”
Then you’re in the right place.
Who Is The Newsletter For?
Product First Principles is a free newsletter specifically for:
- Founders: Whether you’ve been building an AI product for a while, or build one from scratch, Product First Principles gives you the foundational thinking to get AI product monetization right. My goal is to help you de-risk your investment and maximize customer and business value at the same time.
- Executives: CEOs, CTOs, COOs, anyone involved in the broader build process of AI products need to uplevel their skill for the AI era. And what skill do you need to build a successful AI product? You need to know how to align your organization around revenue potential and cost-to-serve.
- Product leaders: It doesn’t matter whether you’re a VP Product with a large team or a Senior Product Manager. Your job is to make sure that you build an AI product that’s valuable (it works for the customer), feasible (you’re able to build it), and viable (it works for your business). And AI just made your job harder. So Product First Principles helps you navigate all three.
