PULSE INTELLIGENCE  /  PRODUCT STRATEGY & DESIGN

Transforming an idea and hypothesis into a testable MVP

We started with the question - Can AI help provide more transparency into voter sentiment?

MY ROLE:

Head of Product
co-founder

hypothesis

AI can provide unique insights into 
voters that existing methods
of research don’t capture.

INSIGHTS

What we learned from organizations

Key topics

Organizations were interested in key topics and narratives specific to their audience. Things like abortion or voter fraud.

Limited resources

No one had the time or resources to digest complex reports. Customers needed just the most relevant information on key topics.

Ai, but not chat

When most people think of an AI product, they immediately think of something like ChatGPT or Gemini. Both require you to know what questions to ask, rather than presenting you with the information we know you need.

the app

Just the metrics you need about the topics you care about

The challange

a powerful tool with limited novel insights

After building an MVP, and testing our hypotheses, we found we weren’t able to uncover meaningful insights that organizations weren’t already aware of through other sources. We concluded that this was a result of two things:

1 - The current state of online conversation is flooded with misinformation and fake accounts. AI in its current form struggled to differentiate signal from noise.

2 - The insights we were able to uncover weren't different from what more traditional methods were able to glean.
