ProdMan AI #lightning_hackathon

Inspiration

The role of product managers has often been termed as the “mini-ceo” of the company. Having to oversee many facets of the product and interacting with many stakeholders, this can be overwhelming. This cross functional role is requires a person to be an all rounder: possess the business acumen, have the technical knowledge, be a good communicator etc. To ease the workload an AI assistant can help product managers ship products faster and with improved quality.

What it does

ProdMan AI is an agentic AI that assists the following domains of product management:

  1. Idea Generation & Validation: Create innovative product ideas and establish market fit.
  2. Product Roadmap Prioritization: Get insights into priority roadmap items using data and team goals.
  3. Product Launch & Pricing optimization: Fine tuned product launch strategies and pricing models.
  4. Ask Me Anything: This mode allows for a more generic Question and Answer approach.

ProdMan AI will ask the user a few questions and then provide recommendations…all this and more using the Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct model.

How we built it

ProdMan’s tech stack consists of the following:

  • PHP-MYSQL backend powered by Codeigniter framework
  • HTML, CSS and javascript frontend with jquery library and AdminLTE
  • Ajax-based communication between frontend and backend.
  • Apache webserver and Mysql database.
  • Php Curl library was used to connect to models in the SambaNova cloud.

ProdMan follows the MVC architecture with the Models storing the generic prompts to be passed to the Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct model in the SambaNova cloud, View is for chatbot interaction related functionality and the agent Controller just manages the session and passes data between model and view.

The techstack was chosen for its simplicity and open source nature.

Challenges we ran into

Cleaning out the required string response data from the model output was a challenge but i developed a custom function to pick out only the required strings.

Accomplishments that we’re proud of

A product management AI agent is now available using SambaNova Cloud to empower product management teams to innovate faster, establish product-market fit, price a product correctly and get AI driven insights on successful product launch strategies… all with a common goal to create a winning product.

What we learned

The models in SambaNova Cloud are very fast due to SambaNova’s chip architecture and the Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct model has been trained on 400 billion paramaters making it a very useful for Agentic AI application in areas such as product management

What’s next for ProdMan AI

“Recent chats” feature associated with the SambaNova API key to enable product managers to revisit past conversations with ProdMan AI
