We’re here because something big is happening across startups and product teams—and it's happening faster than a lot of us expected.
A few years ago, the model was simple:
Raise a huge round of funding, hire an army of people, burn through cash, and hope to scale.
But today? AI is flipping that script.
According to a recent
New York Times article, startups like Gamma, Cursor, and ElevenLabs are reaching tens of millions in revenue with tiny teams—sometimes just 20 to 50 people.
The game has changed:
- Efficiency is the new flex.
- Tiny teams are the new giants.
- AI is the ultimate force multiplier.
And the role of the product manager is evolving right alongside it.
Today’s PM needs to not only lead across engineering, UX, and strategy—but also learn how to leverage AI tools, workflows, and thinking to extend their reach without needing a team of 10 behind them.
