AI Product ManagerScaling AI Products to Revenue
I'm Nitesh Khirwal. I specialize in LLM products, go-to-market strategy, and growth. Led €1B+ IPO readiness, managed €50M+ budgets, and built revenue-generating AI products from prototype to live users. Drive measurable outcomes through data-driven product strategy and technical execution.
How I Deliver AI Products
Revenue-first execution that turns AI concepts into profitable products
Commercial Anchor
MRR / LTV/CACDefine the business needle (MRR growth, payback, retention lift) before model choices. At IKOSIA this meant obsessing over take‑rate + repeat usage, not ‘AI completeness’.
User Evidence > Opinions
Activation SignalsInstrument prototypes for First Value Time & abandonment events. CareerCompanion iterations came from where users dropped—not roadmap debates.
Right-Sized Architecture
Cost / Latency / PrecisionStart with prompts; graduate to RAG when retrieval quality blocks scale; consider fine-tuning only when volume + latency economics warrant it.
Product Leadership Evolution
From data analysis to AI product strategy—each career stage built capabilities that now converge in AI product management: analytical rigor, enterprise scale thinking, growth strategy execution, and hands-on technical delivery.
Data Foundation
Built valuation models for complex transactions. Learned to translate business requirements into analytical frameworks.
Platform Scale
Scaled marketplace platforms through IPO and managed €50M+ budgets. Led cross-functional teams building user-facing products.
Strategic Execution
Led €15M fundraising and launched new B2B verticals. Designed market entry strategies and investor narratives.
