The Startup Playbook: Insights from Y Combinator Episode 2: How to Build Products Users Love? - Building products that users love starts with a deep understanding of your users’ needs. - Conduct user research early and consistently to ensure you're solving real problems. - Build something that adds genuine value, and prioritize functionality over perfection. - Avoid overcomplicating features; simplicity is key to improving user experience. - Launch your product early and iterate based on feedback. The faster you can improve your product in response to users, the better it will become. - Focus on retention: it’s more important to keep your current users happy than constantly acquiring new ones. - Test assumptions through small experiments and data-driven decisions to optimize product growth. - Constantly ask, “What pain point am I solving?” and refine the product accordingly.
