Today's reality

Product insights don't match development speed

Research timelines can't keep up with product launch cycles and competitive pressure.

Product research costs spiral out of control

Teams need more customer validation faster, but product research budgets haven't kept pace.

Product teams operate in silos without shared insights

Different teams research the same customer needs separately, duplicating research efforts.
