Product Manager Hub

A community of practice for product managers who ship with AI.

I started this so product managers who ship with AI can learn the work together. Stories, essays, and tools on this site are what we share.

The community

What we practice together

Playbooks, peers, and a classroom. I keep the stories and tools free on the site. The community is where we use them together.

  1. Playbooks

    Sequenced plays from my own builds. Members use them and add what they tried.

  2. Community

    Peers who ship with AI. We compare what landed and what stalled.

  3. Classroom

    A checklist and classroom space so the steps stay with the work.

FAQ

Common questions

Straight answers about the community, ProductBot, and the library.

What is the Product Manager Hub Community?
It is the community of practice I run for product managers who ship with AI. Members get peers, playbooks, a classroom and checklist space, and Q&A. I host it on Skool. Stories, essays, ProductBot, and the tools stay free on this site.
What is a community of practice?
A community of practice is a group of people who do the same work and get better by doing it together. I started this one for product managers who ship with AI. We share what we learned on real products, then use it on the next build.
What is Product Manager Hub?
Product Manager Hub is that community, plus the library around it. I share ship stories, essays, ProductBot, a knowledge base, MCP for Claude, and the tools. Advisory is a later step.
What is ProductBot?
ProductBot is the free public guide on this site. It answers from the ship stories and the library I publish, not from a generic chat. For playbooks and peers, join the community. I book a call only when someone wants hands-on help on one product.
How is this different from ChatGPT or Claude alone?
General models draw on broad public text. I focus this site on product work I have shipped with AI: stories, essays, tools, and the community. The same material is on the site, in ProductBot, and in MCP.
Who is Product Manager Hub for?
Product managers who ship with AI, and founders who do that job themselves. I write for people with a product in market, or close to it.
Who built Product Manager Hub?
I did. Anthony Ludwig. I write the stories, run ProductBot, keep the library, and host the community. The About page has the longer version and the social links.
How do I get started?
Start on the site: a ship story, ProductBot, or a tool. Join the community for playbooks and peers. A scoping call comes later, and only for hands-on help on one product.
