Prototypes vs Products

And if you watch skilled users of each, you’ll see that they utilize their respective tools very differently to get the most out of their tools. This makes complete sense to me because they are each using their respective tools to solve very different problems – building to learn is very different from building to earn. Is it possible that someday (e.g. in the next 3-5 years) the code-generation tools will truly be able to go from prototype to product for complex, enterprise-class solutions? In my mind, this is an open question.

Who is Tim Herbig?

As a Product Management Coach, I guide Product Teams to measure the real progress of their evidence-informed decisions.

I focus on better practices to connect the dots of Product Strategy, Product OKRs, and Product Discovery.
