Three numbers from the research that made me record this:

57% / 11.8% : the best coding agent produces functionally correct code 57% of the time… and secure code 11.8% of the time

91% : share of deployed vibe-coded apps containing at least one vulnerability

+441% : the rise in code-review time while generation got faster

Instead of coding first and writing docs later, in spec-driven development, you start with a spec. This is a contract for how your code should behave and becomes the source of truth your tools and AI agents use to generate, test, and validate code. The result is less guesswork, fewer surprises, and higher-quality code.

That's the magic of PLG. It's about building products that people love to use, not just buy. It's about empowering users to discover value on their own, not force-feeding it to them

I'm excited to share some of our favorite templates to empower your product management journey.

Two Truths About Customer Service Early on at Amazon, Jeff Bezos internalized two truths about customer service: When a company makes a customer happy, she won't tell a friend or two; she'll tell many, many more. This is because positive experiences are more likely to be shared than negative ones. When a customer is happy with a product or service, they are more likely to tell their friends and family about it. This word-of-mouth marketing can be very powerful for businesses, as it can lead to new customers and increased sales. The best customer service is no customer service—because the best experience happens when the customer never has to ask for help at all. This means that businesses should strive to anticipate and prevent customer problems before they occur. This can be done by designing products and services that are easy to use and understand, providing clear instructions and documentation, and offering proactive support. When customers can solve their problems on their own, they are more likely to be satisfied with the experience.
