Anybody should think about the Idea Friction & Fraction and broader version, before the drive into work I think. What to learn and what to do should measure timely & wisely. These few questions will give you the answer that what product will you launch & what will do work. Test : Learn - Work - Grow - Move , cycle until the right moments come!

The role of product managers is evolving fast. I sat down with Saurabh Agarwal (VP Product Management - JioHotstar, ex-Google and LinkedIn) to decode what’s changing and what will not in the field of product management in the next few years. It was exciting to interact about his decade plus learnings on building products for 500 million+ Indians that most of us use daily along with uncovering how they came up with the ideation of the much revered Max-view feature in Hot-star, that went from idea to launch just in 6 weeks, as first ever vertical content consumption for live sports globally! Not just that, we covered the following elements in the conversation ✅ Engineer → PM → org-builder: how the scope and stakes grow ✅ Judgment vs data: when to trust instincts over dashboards ✅ The MaxView story: from insight → prototype → launch in ~6 weeks ✅ Product trade-offs at true billion+ internet scale ✅ Designing for India’s Next Half Billion (NHB) users ✅ Where AI is actually reshaping PM & design ✅ Why simplicity beats cleverness in execution He also dropped a bunch of timeless nuggets on velocity, taste, and building for constraints. Thanks to Rati and team at Product x People for the invite. Link to the full conversation in comments. #productmanagement

Finance teams are evolving faster than most people realise. What used to be reporting and reconciliation is becoming automation, intelligent systems and AI-driven decision layers. AI is starting to reshape how finance operates. At Razorpay FTX26, we’re opening up the Circle of Expertise - an open space where builders, operators, can discuss how financial infrastructure is changing and what the next phase might look like. I’ll be talking about the rise of AI-powered finance and if you’re building or running finance systems and have a question about the future of finance, send it through, I’ll answer it live!
