Meet Our Next Sponsor: Miro!
When it comes to bringing product teams together, mapping out complex roadmaps, and turning messy brainstorming sessions into structured plans, there is one tool we all rely on.
We are incredibly excited to welcome Miro as an official sponsor for the upcoming Productlab Conference! We are proud to partner with a platform that is central to the daily workflow of modern product creators.
To celebrate Miro joining us as an official sponsor for the upcoming Productlab Conf, we are launching an exclusive Leaders Bundle giveaway! 🚀

Here is how to enter:
🎟️ Buy your Ticket at the current rate via productlab.app.
✍️ Write a post sharing why you want to join us at the conference this year.

🌴☀️ Packing your bags? Don’t pack away this masterclass.
August is just around the corner, and we know most of you are either heading out for the summer or already in holiday mode.
Honestly, enjoy the break! But before you completely unplug, we have an online session with two of the sharpest product minds in the industry you absolutely shouldn’t miss: Ravi Mehta (Former CPO at Tinder) and Michelle Parsons (Former CPO at Hinge), teaming up with the Dodane do Backlogu team. If you want practical insights on surviving product failures and navigating the AI wave without the usual sales pitches, this conversation is for you.
🗓️ 29th of July, 18:00–19:30 CEST

The AI Whiplash: Why Our Trusted Playbooks Are Breaking
In his insightful piece, Florian Bonnet highlights why optimizing for velocity is meaningless if you’re running in the wrong direction. AI makes building features cheap, leading teams to chase shipping speed while burying themselves in complexity without driving revenue. We must rethink our product metrics.
According to an interesting article on Product Management IRL, the instincts that make us a great PM, seeking stability and managing risk, will actually break our AI projects. Because AI is unpredictable, we must ditch the traditional playbook and switch to a transformation mindset focused on fast, micro-level learning.
Over at Growth Unhinged, a new guide explains why tracking AI search success through referral clicks is completely wrong. Less than 1% of users click links inside AI answers. The piece offers a practical framework to stop chasing vanity traffic and start measuring your actual brand presence.
