A Product Evidence Book | AI Product Manager

I ship agentic AI products to learn how to be a great PM.

I'm Aryan Panwar. I'm an AI Product Manager with a builder background. This isn't a portfolio: it's an evidence book. Case studies from agentic systems I've shipped, the tradeoffs I made, and the writing that shows how I think about product.

Three products, told the PM way.

Problem, users, tradeoffs, metrics, and what I'd do next - for the three projects I've thought about hardest.

03 · How I Think

Product thinking, step by step.

Step

Discover

Sit in the problem. Interview users, read support tickets, watch session replays. Assume nothing.

04 · My Product Thinking

Frameworks, grounded in real projects.

Every entry starts with a product I shipped - not with theory. JTBD, RICE scoring, opportunity trees, and metrics - applied to real products.

Jobs-to-be-Done, applied to FitWardrobe

How I moved FitWardrobe from ‘another closet app’ to a morning ritual by rewriting the job around the user's actual outcome.

RICE prioritization, applied to Mithivoices

Scoring an OSS backlog of 40+ modules against one axis: does this reduce time-to-first-agent for a stranger?

Opportunity solution trees, applied to SEO-GEO Optimizer

How I stopped jumping to solutions and mapped the AI-search space into opportunities before writing any code.

North-star + counter-metrics, applied to Credex

Choosing a metric that only goes up when the customer actually wins - and the counter-metrics that keep it honest.

Discovery interviews, applied to AI-First CRM

How I ran problem-space interviews with field reps without leading the witness - and what I threw away because of them.

AI product tradeoffs I actually made

On-device vs cloud, eval design, latency vs quality - the concrete decisions I made, and what would make me revisit them.

05 · Writing

Product evidence, in essays.

Each post answers one PM hiring question - grounded in a real product I built, not a framework I memorised.

What Building FitWardrobe Taught Me About Product Discovery

FitWardrobe started as a computer-vision demo. It only became a product when I stopped defending my prototype and started listening to the seven friends who told me it solved the wrong problem.

Answers: How do I discover the right problem?

I Stopped Thinking Like an Engineer. Here's What Changed.

The moment my technical instinct stopped being an asset and started being a tax - and the three questions I now ask before I let myself open a code editor.

How to Prioritize Product Features Before Writing a PRD

The one-page pre-PRD I run before any spec - and why the "must-have" column is the one that decides whether the product ships on time.

Answers: How do I decide what gets built?

Why Every Product Needs Success Metrics Before Features

The Credex feature I almost shipped without a definition of "worked" - and the two-column doc I now use so I never do that again.

06 · Journey

From builder to PM.

The milestones - hardware, research, shipped AI products, and where I'm heading next.

2022

Started ECE at MIET Meerut

Enrolled in Electronics & Communication Engineering. Spent the first year building hardware side-projects - a robot arm, an EV-charger prototype, staircase lighting - for the reps of finishing things.

2023

Fell for product thinking

Discovered that the interesting problems live at the intersection of user, business, and technology. Devoured Marty Cagan, Teresa Torres, and Julie Zhuo. Started writing PRDs for products I was only imagining.

2024

Built to learn, wrote to think

Stacked reps on hardware side-projects - a 4-DOF robotic arm, an IPT wireless-charging prototype, motion-triggered staircase lighting. Every build had to actually work, measure something, and be handed to a user. That constraint discipline is the seed of how I now scope products.

Jun–Aug 2025

Operations & Instrumentation Intern, Indian Potash Ltd

Spent 10 weeks inside IPL's molasses distillery in Rohana Kalan, Muzaffarnagar - learned how industrial automation systems (PLC/DCS, boilers, sensor arrays) operate across full production. Developed first-principles respect for safety compliance and enterprise operational constraints.

Dec 2025

Started shipping independently

Went from side-projects to a real shipping cadence: FitWardrobe (on-device AI, live), AI-First HCP CRM on LangGraph, Credex AI Spend Audit (live), Mithivoices open-source voice AI, and Digital Heroes Golf (live with payments). Learned that scope discipline is the whole game - and that AI wedges only work when the ritual around them is designed.

Feb–Mar 2026

Formalized the toolkit

Earned NVIDIA DLI's Transformer-based NLP certificate (Feb), Google AI Essentials (Feb) and Prompting Essentials (Mar), and Microsoft's Product Management Fundamentals (Mar). The PM track stopped being a side interest and became the direction.

April 2026

Published research + 1st place at branch expo

‘Automated Dual-Spot Wireless Charging and Parking Management System for EVs’ published in JETIR (IF 7.95, Vol 13 · Issue 4, ID JETIR2604872, Apr 27 2026) - 85% wireless charging efficiency, 1st place at the MIET branch expo. The paper's structure - assumption, method, result, discussion - quietly became how I write PRDs.

2026

Released SEO-GEO Optimizer + started writing in public

Published an npm package that makes sites legible to AI answer engines (Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity). Shipped 11+ essays on positioning AI products, orchestrating LLMs in production, and designing for agentic users.

AI Product Manager

Looking for a product team where the bar is high, the users are real, and the outcome matters. I want to spend my early PM years in the room where the tradeoffs are made.

07 · Product Philosophy

“The PM job isn't to have the best ideas. It's to make sure the team ships the right ones, for the right users, with the right restraint.”
