In this session, we have Tarun Muvvala taking us through Context Engineering for LLMs. Tarun is the founder of Fint, an AI platform to solve finance and accounting problems.
Here's the agenda for the session:
Frameworks and Tips to write an Agent Requirements Document (ARD):
ARDs combine business goals, technical specs, and design needs into one clear framework. PMs must own the ARD to understand what happens behind the scenes in agents. This helps them verify, evaluate, and ensure agents are transparent and reliable.
By aligning teams early, ARDs reduce confusion, improve accuracy, and make agents verifiable and user-friendly.
Why it matters: Less guesswork. Faster iteration. PMs stay in control.
Who is it relevant for?
This session is aimed at Product managers and builders. This will give you clarity around how to create the right context to your LLMs to create the best products.
