Best AI tools for product managers

PMs spend the week in meetings, writing specs, and trying to show engineers and stakeholders what they mean. AI now closes much of the gap between an idea and something clickable, and it catches the decisions made in meetings that would otherwise be lost.

Searching the team's docs

Notion AI

Add-on from $10/mo

Answering data questions yourself

Julius

Free · from $20/mo

Free tier
15 messages/month, do not roll over, basic features and standard AI models

What you can skip

Figma Make is only worth it if you already pay for Figma, as its own listing says; a PM without a design seat gets screens faster from Visily. Figma Make profile.
