AI Makers / 02 — Product Strategy in a World of AI Labs
What do you build when the next model release could change your product overnight?
As AI labs expand from models into products, founders and product teams face a fast moving target. New capabilities create opportunities, reshape customer expectations, and challenge assumptions about what makes a product valuable.
How do you decide where to compete, what to build, and which bets will still matter six months from today?
Join us at Productboard for an evening with Martin Rehak from Resistant AI and Jan Zenisek from Apify, moderated by Daniel Hejl. In a panel discussion, followed by an audience Q&A, we’ll explore how to make product strategy decisions when the foundations keep shifting.
We’ll get into:
Where to play: How do you choose opportunities as AI labs move into more application areas?
What makes your product defensible: Where does lasting value come from—data, domain expertise, workflows, distribution, or something else?
How to place your bets: What deserves a long-term commitment, and where should you stay flexible?
When to change direction: How do you respond to new model capabilities without rebuilding your roadmap after every release?
