How to Build AI Products for a Changing Market

Every bet you make in AI has a shelf life measured in months, not years. What you’re right about today, you may have to rethink by next quarter.

For our first community meetup at Superhuman’s new Berlin hub at Das Center, we’re excited to welcome Ailian Gan, Head of Agents at Superhuman, to share what she’s learned from building AI products in a market that keeps changing.

💬 About the talk

Building AI products means getting comfortable with change. New capabilities emerge, user expectations shift, and the assumptions behind your roadmap don’t stay true for long.

Superhuman knows this firsthand. The company has grown from Grammarly’s AI writing assistant into a multi-product suite of apps and agents for productivity—all in a market that continues to evolve.

Drawing on her experience building AI products at Superhuman, Ailian will share how she thinks about spotting emerging user needs, deciding when to build before the opportunity is obvious, and using what you learn after launch to decide what comes next.

It’s about learning to build this way on purpose—making product decisions when the signals are incomplete, opinions compete, and understanding that what works today may not work tomorrow.
