I prioritize user requests when building our product roadmap, focusing on features that users want and that provide a competitive advantage.

We have a public roadmap that lists features users have requested, but we also maintain a secret roadmap with innovative ideas that competitors are unaware of.

It's crucial not to let hijack users dictate the product roadmap; focusing on solving one problem well is more effective than trying to please every user that comes along.

We focus on a single overarching metric to guide our product development, which helps us prioritize our efforts and make informed decisions. This approach allows the entire team to rally around a common goal, enhancing our effectiveness.

We used feedback from our users to improve our product rapidly, which was crucial for our success.

Having a clear product vision helps in deciding whether to integrate customer-requested features or maintain focus on the core product direction.

The product roadmap combines both immediate and long-term strategies, allowing for parallel execution of small S and big S work.

Listening to user feedback and delivering what they ask for has been crucial to our success, as seen in our launches on platforms like Hacker News.

Our product development strategy focuses on meeting a high standard of quality before releasing features. This deliberate approach helps us avoid the pitfalls of chasing vanity metrics and ensures that our customers are treated as design partners.
