TIACON25 Product Stage - Using AI to rapidly understand user needs

Product teams today face a major challenge: translating massive volumes of unstructured user feedback into actionable user needs quickly. The future of product strategy relies on speed. Abhilash LR, Founder and CEO of JellyBean.ai, shares expertise on leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) for user research and real-time insights. The discussion explores: • How to deploy AI-powered tools to process thousands of customer interactions (surveys, transcripts, reviews) in minutes instead of weeks. • Techniques for using Natural Language Processing (NLP) and sentiment analysis to automatically identify pain points, feature requests, and emotional drivers. • The critical shift from traditional, slow user research to a real-time, continuous insights model. • Practical steps for integrating AI insights directly into the product roadmap and development sprints. • Overcoming common challenges: ensuring data quality, minimizing AI bias, and maintaining privacy while processing sensitive user data. • Learn how to accelerate your understanding of what users truly need, allowing your team to build features that matter faster than the competition.
