How to Get Buy-In to Adopt AI Tools + Using Them to Build Brand-Aligned Prototypes (w/ Bolt Chief of Staff Alex Berger)

​Here’s the reality every PM deals with: you have a strong product idea, you build the deck, walk stakeholders through the vision, and then spend weeks circling the same debates. Everyone wants evidence.

​Momentum dies, and the idea stalls.

​The faster path isn’t more slides — it’s a working prototype. When teams can see and touch the idea, buy-in shifts from “convince me” to “show me more.”

​There’s one hurdle: you can’t prototype at speed if your company hasn’t approved the right AI tools.

​Alex Berger, the Chief of Staff of Bolt, will walk Alex Lieberman + Arman Hezarkhani through both sides of the buy-in problem.

​First, how to get AI prototyping tools approved internally—the politics, the champion strategy, and the business case leadership actually responds to. Then, how to use those tools to build polished, brand-aligned prototypes that move decisions forward instead of getting stuck in committee.

​Get the tool approved. Then use it to get the idea approved.
