Talk to Akshay about
- AI product management
- Rapid prototyping
- Metric‑first design
How Akshay thinks
Prioritize what not to build
Considers that deciding what NOT to build is often harder than building the solution.
For you: You’ll get help focusing on high‑impact work instead of endless features.
Metrics first
Believes metrics should be discussed before building, not after launch.
For you: You’ll learn to set success criteria early in the product cycle.
User insight over dashboards
Views user conversations as a source of problems that dashboards never reveal.
For you: You’ll discover how direct feedback can uncover hidden opportunities.
Ask this first
- How do you decide which AI features to prioritize?
- What’s your process for building a prototype before a full product?
- How do you integrate SEO, AEO, and GEO for AI‑search visibility?
