Who’s who in the cast

Oshi Pandey (Herself) is a product manager and strategist for AI products. She works out what a product should be, who it’s for and how it wins, and then helps build it, for AI companies across India, the Gulf and Europe.

She is easiest to understand through the things she cannot stop following: books, strange art, myth, games, internet rabbit holes, and the small systems people build to make sense of themselves. She trained in economics and public policy at FLAME University, though the real education happened in the wandering around it.

She is drawn to places where taste is the product: tools for reading, writing, curating and thinking. If you are building one of those, the stage door is open.

Programme Notes

how she works, from her notebook · turn the leaves

f. 1

Find the real problem

She begins before the brief is fully trustworthy: talking to stakeholders, mapping existing workflows, researching the market and finding the constraint underneath the requested feature.

f. 2

Give the product a shape

She turns research into product theses, user journeys, priorities, positioning and buildable scopes.

first the proportions, then the feathers
A study of a wing frame and geometric solids
f. 3

Carry it across teams

She works between clients, designers and developers, documenting decisions, resolving ambiguity and keeping the system coherent from proposal to launch.

Five interlocking gears lifting one weight
f. 4

Make the argument legible

She cares about how an idea is explained as much as how it is built: the interface, narrative, documentation and small details that make people trust it.

Now Booking

good problems to bring her

  • The original brief does not quite describe the real problem.
  • A technically capable product needs a clearer market argument.
  • Several teams need to agree on one operating workflow.
  • An AI capability needs to become something people will actually use.
  • A large vision needs a credible first version.
