#product-discovery — Public Fediverse posts

#OpenAI is revamping the #shopping experience in #ChatGPT, allowing users to find and compare products by uploading images or describing items. This comes after the failure of the Instant Checkout feature, which struggled with enabling transactions and onboarding merchants. OpenAI is now focusing on #productdiscovery. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/24/openai-revamps-shopping-experience-in-chatgpt-after-instant-checkout.html?eicker.news #tech #media #news

This Notion case study on embedding an AI engineer with the sales team is a brilliant example of deep discovery *before* building. It clearly shows why true product understanding goes beyond assumptions to find the real problem. https://www.firstround.com/ai/notion #ProductDiscovery #AIinProduct

Sind wir mal ehrlich: Oft suchen wir mit "Product Discovery" nicht nach echten Problemen, sondern nur nach Lücken, um Leuten noch mehr unnützes Zeug zu verkaufen. @Reinald stellt die unbequeme Frage, ob Agile hier in eine Sackgasse gerannt ist, weil wir die wirklich drängenden Probleme ignorieren und stattdessen den Überkonsum optimieren. Ein harter, aber notwendiger Realitätscheck.

Das war in der agilen Community los (Woche vom 21.11. – 27.11.)

Diese Woche wird es grundsätzlich: Ist "Product Discovery" nur ein Euphemismus für Konsumförderung? Dazu lernen wir vom Cadillac F1-Team, dass "Agile" cooler klingt, wenn man Management-Ketten sprengt, und warum wir Projekte beerdigen sollten, bevor sie überhaupt gestartet sind. Hier die Highlights. 👇

PRODUCTHEAD: Building, wayfinding and landscape architecture

» Too often, ‘building’ becomes the default state for a product team, at the expense of other valuable ways of working

» An product team should not be so rigid that it cannot cope with the occasional mandate from above

Feature flags aren’t just toggles—they’re a product-discovery tool. Jenny Wanger outlines three fast-learning techniques: validate demand early, dogfood for value, and targeted beta. This hits my focus on speed, safety, and continuous learning in PM/Agile. A smart approach! https://jennywanger.com/articles/beyond-release-management-feature-flags-for-product-discovery/ #ProductDiscovery #Agile

PRODUCTHEAD: What to consider when implementing AI in your product

» Implementing AI means assessing user needs and your data sources

» AI technologies run the risk of creating harm — how are you planning for that?

» LLMs and genAI open up new vectors for novel attacks that need to be countered

🚀 Controversial take: #DesignThinking might be holding #ProductDiscovery back.

Why? They treat #conceptdesign as a separate phase, but that's a missed opportunity.

Integrating concept design into product discovery is a game-changer. It:

✅ Enhances your ability to visualize future user experiences.
✅ Improves decision-making and stakeholder alignment.
✅ Fosters a shared vision among your team.

「在軟體發展初期的好一段時間裡，傳統的產品探索工作並非由產品團隊負責 -- 這是企業領袖的事，由他們決定要打造什麼東西。探索的工作每年一次，跟著年度預算編列的流程開展，專案各有固定時程、分配給固定的工程團隊，有專案經理管理相關的工作、預算、時程，有時會有產品經理將商業需求轉換為產品需求。這種工作方式一直有許多挑戰：軟體開發狀況難以預估、專案經常延遲並超支、企業需求凌駕於顧客之上、團隊在產品推出以後才發現客戶不感興趣。此種工作方式導致許多浪費，但遺憾的是我仍看到很多團隊、公司採行此道。Marty Cagan 將這類型的團隊稱為『交付團隊』。」

#productManagement #productdiscovery

At its core the role of discovery is to understand. Understanding customer problems and opportunity areas, understanding and developing opinions on what to build, and even understanding how to build it. It is rooted in the idea that building a fully scalable product solution (product, feature, service, etc.) is expensive, time consuming and uncertain.

gedanke des #contemptus:

bei pilotkunden aufpassen, dass sie nicht zu politkunden werden.

\*nur ein wortspiel. oder doch nicht.\*

#productdiscovery #productdevelopment #innovation

gedanke des #contemptus:

wenn wir antizipieren, dass nur ein bruchteil von ideen im unternehmen tragfähige innovationen hervorbringen, sollten wir uns auch bewusst sein, dass nur ein bruchteil der wege, wie ideen ins unternehmen kommen, tragfähige ideen hervorbringen.

deshalb: schlagzahl und formate für exploration und discovery erhöhen.

Users are like kids at Christmas. They say they really want this one thing, but that one thing won’t keep them happy for long.

What will make them happy? Solving their unspoken problems, the problems they can’t quite articulate. And the best way uncover them is to ask really good questions.

Product discovery is like solving a mystery. Uncover the needs, pains, and desires of your users, and piece together the puzzle to create products that truly resonate. Be a detective, not a fortune teller! #ProductDiscovery #UserResearch #CustomerInsights

#Surveys are a pain to complete, and most people don’t invest much thought in filling them in, which means the #information they give is low-quality and unlikely to provide #strategic insight.

Talking to customers and asking open-ended questions yields better results. In most cases, you won't need to conduct more than a dozen such #interviews to gain a complete picture of customer #needs and #preferences.
