📰 Product Leaders’ Wisdom
Brought to you weekly by Leila Montazeri
Building AI-Generated Opportunity Solution Trees? This is the rarest kind of PM writing: raw and honest about what it actually takes to ship AI in production. Teresa, a product manager and designer, not an engineer, just finished an all-out engineering sprint to build an AI-powered service that auto-generates Opportunity Solution Trees from customer interviews. Her key lesson published on Product Talk: it’s fairly easy to get to an impressive prototype with AI, but getting to a real production-quality product is a fundamentally different challenge.
Growth Unhinged reveals how B2B pricing is shifting fast in 2026. Poyar’s survey of 230+ companies shows that three-quarters have changed their pricing recently, moving away from per-seat subscriptions toward usage- and outcome-based models. Even Salesforce and HubSpot are scrambling. Plus, there’s a big reality check on AI margins—they’re sitting around 50%, way below traditional SaaS numbers. Dig into this if you touch monetization.
For IC product managers feeling busy but unproductive, this is a must-read on Product Management IRL. As AI accelerates development, traditional PM work, such as stakeholder alignment and managing delivery friction, is losing its value. The real leverage is now upstream: clearing ambiguity and nailing customer pain points early. Mitchell shares a solid operating model to help you make this shift.
