Build a New Product
Test the idea before you write the code.
You have an idea or an early product. We help you pick the customer to start with, test the riskiest assumptions, decide what to build, and get it into customers' hands. Three ways in, depending on how much help you need.

Three Ways to Build It
From a product leader inside your team to one day on your idea.
Fractional Head of Product / CPO
For founders with real users and revenue, but no one who owns product yet.
Olek joins as your company's actual Head of Product or CPO, part-time: owning the roadmap, running discovery and making the calls a full-time hire would make. Not an advisor reviewing your work from the outside, a product leader doing the work inside your team.
See the fractional role →What you get
- Product strategy and roadmap owned, and aligned with the business goals
- Weekly leadership of standups, planning and sprint reviews
- Product discovery: customer interviews, opportunity mapping, assumption testing
- Your PMs, designers and engineers coached in the flow of work
- Hiring support when you are ready for a full-time product leader
PMF Program
For early-stage startups with an early product, working toward product-market fit.
An ongoing advisory program: we help you define the right focus, validate your product and go-to-market assumptions, and iterate systematically until you find what the market actually responds to. Product-market fit is measured along the way, not declared.
See the PMF Program →What you get
- Weekly coaching, individual and group, on product strategy and product discovery
- Customer interviews facilitated and synthesized, at least five per cycle
- Demand and user value experiments: landing pages, fake doors, Wizard of Oz, A/B tests
- PMF reviews with the PMF Survey, from problem-solution fit to scale readiness
- MVBP scoping and launch support, and a roadmap built on what you validated
0 to 1 Product Development Workshop
For founders, co-founders and early team members, up to six people.
A full day, built on Bill Aulet's 24-step Disciplined Entrepreneurship, that takes you from a raw idea to a clear customer focus, a validated value proposition and a concrete plan to test your biggest assumptions before you write a line of code.
See the full workshop →What you get
- Your beachhead market: the specific customer segment to start with
- Your value proposition, quantified: how customers solve the problem today, and the difference your product makes
- Your riskiest assumptions mapped across desirability, viability and feasibility, and prioritized
- Your first experiments on test cards, and the smallest product that can capture real value
- A go-to-market path: demand first, user value second, a limited release third
