User-Centric Product-led Growth in the AI Era

Kate Syuma

Founder Growthmates • Ex-Miro

Create your Product-led growth roadmap — from Quick wins to Big bets.

Growth leaders are expected to deliver impact fast — but many fall into local optimization traps.

👉 What’s good for the user is good for the business.

The biggest wins for Miro, Notion, and Figma came from combining world-class UX with ethical Product-Led Growth.

Common challenges:
🚨 Endless A/B tests with no real impact
🚨 Hard to uncover new Activation or Habit opportunities
🚨 Struggling to get buy-in for meaningful product changes

After 6+ years leading Growth at Miro (from 1 to 15 teams), founding Growthmates, and advising 10+ SaaS & AI companies, I built a course to help you solve these challenges.

🎯 Result: a prioritized roadmap of Quick Wins, Meaningful Shifts, and Big Bets — plus personal Loom feedback on your project.

You get:
⚡️ Personalized feedback on your completed project ($990 value)
⚡️ 4 live interactive sessions ($1,190 value)
⚡️ 30+ real product flows from Notion, Canva, Dropbox & lifetime access

This course is not theory — it’s real product practice and user-centered growth you can apply immediately.

What you’ll learn

Combine behavioral science and proven growth strategies to create a diverse roadmap, get buy-in, and drive impact with high quality.

  • Use behavioral science frameworks to uncover friction points

  • Identify ethical, high-impact opportunities that benefit both users and business
