She Built an AI Product Manager Bringing in Six Figures—As A Side Hustle - Ep. 24 with Claire Vo

Claire Vo built ChatPRD—an on-demand chief product officer powered by AI. It’s now used by over 10,000 product managers and is pulling in six figures in revenue.

The best part? Claire has a demanding day job as the CPO at LaunchDarkly. So she built all of ChatPRD herself—over the weekend—with AI. I sat down with Claire to talk about how ChatPRD works, how she built it as a side hustle using AI, and all of the ways she’s using AI tools to accelerate her work and life. We get into:

  • How she used AI to build ChatPRD over Thanksgiving break
  • The part of product management that Claire thinks AI will disrupt
  • Why the PMs of tomorrow will be “proto-managers” who create prototypes rather than just specs
  • How junior PMs can use AI to upskill faster
  • The ways in which ChatPRD is baked into her own workflow
  • How building ChatPRD is making Claire a better PM
  • How Claire uses AI as a tech-forward parent

This is a must-watch for anyone interested in turning their side hustle into a thriving business or who works in product.
