Cat Wu, Head of Product for Claude Code at Anthropic, explains how her team ships features in days instead of months.
●
Cat explains how she partners with tech lead Boris to translate his AGI-scale product vision into a 3–6 month execution roadmap while keeping cross-functional teams tightly aligned.
●
She argues that AI-native PMs must optimise for extreme iteration speed—shipping meaningful features weekly or faster—and focus on eliciting maximum capability from today’s models rather than designing only for hypothetical future AGI.
●
Cat emphasises that as code becomes cheap, the most valuable emerging PM skill is strong product taste: knowing what to build, in what order, and how to make those choices amid rapidly changing AI capabilities.
"The timelines for a lot of our product features have gone down from six months to one month and sometimes to even one day." - Cat Wu
