How to win in the AI era: Ship a feature every week, embrace technical debt, ruthlessly cut scope, and create magic your competitors can't copy | Gaurav Misra (CEO and co-founder of Captions)
Gaurav Misra is the co-founder and CEO of Captions, an AI-powered video creation company and one of the most successful consumer AI products in the world today. Previously he was a product leader at Snap, where he created the design engineering function and spent years helping develop features used by hundreds of millions of users worldwide. With a background in both engineering and design, Gaurav brings a unique cross-functional perspective to product development.
What you’ll learn:
1. Why the “ship a marketable feature every week” approach helps his team stay focused and the product stay top of mind for users amid constant AI breakthroughs

3. The “secret roadmap” strategy that helps Captions develop breakthrough features competitors never see coming
4. Why taking on strategic technical debt is essential for startups to outpace larger companies
5. How Captions accidentally ignored their most successful product for 1.5 years (and why it still grew to 500K users with no updates or support)
6. How Snap’s unique product development approach—with designers functioning as PMs—enabled their success as the last major social network to break through
7. Why AI video will transform marketing before other industries
