CodeStock 2026: Real Ways I’m Using AI to Accelerate Product Management Work

AI is showing up in nearly every product management tool, but it is not always clear when it truly accelerates our work and when it just adds noise. Without that clarity, PMs can waste cycles on busywork rather than investing in the high-impact parts of the role. The surprising reality is that AI delivers the most value in the everyday, unglamorous tasks such as scoping releases, scanning competitors, writing stories, synthesizing customer visits, and preparing stakeholder updates. By putting AI to work in these areas, PMs can reclaim hours each week and redirect energy toward strategy, alignment, and building products that matter.

Attendees will walk away with:

• Practical prompts and workflows that save time on research, writing, and communication
• Tested examples of how AI can create space for more thoughtful decision making
• Ideas they can immediately apply to their own product work

This session will be part of Codestock 2026 and given by Lean TECHniques Principal Product Manager, Jodi Jones.
