Launched an AI calendar tool on Product Hunt with a full analytics pipeline behind it

Briefing

Calendarize — an AI-powered calendar tool built by a student team — needed product direction grounded in evidence, not vibes.

On track

  • Defined product vision and strategy through user interviews and market research; authored the PRD and user-story backlog.
  • Designed, prototyped, and iterated the UI/UX.
  • Implemented a serverless analytics pipeline (Next.js API route → PostHog) capturing 100% of user interactions, synthesized into retention and funnel dashboards used in weekly prioritization.
  • Coordinated design, engineering, and marketing to launch on Product Hunt and fold early-adopter feedback into positioning and roadmap.

Result

A shipped, instrumented product with a public launch — the first full product cycle from research to telemetry to release.
