WHAT WILL YOU GAIN FROM THIS COHORT?

Master a structured discovery approach—supported by AI for rapid validation, collaboration across teams, and continuous feedback loops—so you can build impactful products while avoiding common pitfalls and wasted effort.

Discovery Foundations

Lay the groundwork for effective product discovery by avoiding common pitfalls like endless research, validation that doesn’t translate into real decisions, and jumping straight to solutions.

Efficient Discovery Approach:

Explore a structured framework for minimising time-to-insight and maximising your product’s impact. You’ll learn how to involve the entire product team—from engineering to customer-facing roles—so that discovery becomes a collaborative effort rather than a siloed task.

Validation & AI Stack:

Define clear hypotheses and rapidly validate assumptions using proven AI tools and tactics. By integrating AI into your discovery workflow, you’ll cut through guesswork and focus on data-driven decisions that keep you moving quickly in the right direction.

Closing the Loop:

Master the art of feedback loops and effective communication to ensure everyone stays aligned and committed. You’ll learn how to continuously incorporate new insights, share them with stakeholders, and translate those learnings into concrete action.
