The landscape of product development is rapidly evolving, with teams achieving greater velocity and efficiency than ever before. Tasks that once required larger teams and extended timelines are now being accomplished by smaller groups, often yielding quicker identification of dead ends in product development. This shift allows companies to pivot more swiftly, either ceasing unproductive ventures or realigning their approach to find product-market fit, ultimately leading to increased investment opportunities. The rise of AI in various sectors, such as law and tax, underscores the need for founders with deep market knowledge. Successful entrepreneurs leverage their unique backgrounds and insights to innovate — exemplified by a CFO who, without engineering expertise, developed a prototype from customer feedback that eventually attracted funding and engineering talent. This trend highlights the democratization of innovation, enabling individuals from diverse backgrounds to contribute significantly to their industries.
