Starting out in product?

Everyone starts at the bottom of the mountain.

The CEO is pushing, engineering is behind, design disagrees — and the call is yours. Every choice lights up a stretch of the trail: consequences, feedback and weight in your performance review.

How it works

A career built on decisions.

You join a company, face real situations and choose what you would do. Every choice has a consequence and weighs on your performance review.

Start my first chapter

  1. Product Intern

    Entry level

    Observe, investigate and organize information before deciding.

  2. Associate Product Manager

    APM

    Own trade-offs, prioritize in context and defend your decisions.

  3. Product Manager

    PM

    Set direction, establish priorities and answer for outcomes.

  4. Senior Product Manager

    Senior PM

    Decide with incomplete information and influence other teams.

  5. Group Product Manager

    GPM

    Think portfolio, resources and the growth of other people.

And where does the Product Owner fit?

Titles vary between companies: an APM may take on responsibilities close to a PO's. Here the ladder represents growing responsibility — not a mandatory sequence of titles.

Why decisions

Knowing the concept is not the same as deciding.

Watching someone explain prioritization is different from deciding when five teams fight over the same resource.

You know what RICE is.

But what if the highest-scoring initiative is the one the CEO wants to cut?

You know you should listen to customers.

But what if your biggest customer asks for something that hurts hundreds of others?

You know tech debt matters.

But what if paying it down costs you the biggest opportunity of the quarter?

Who it's for

Built from the reality of product work.

The challenges are inspired by situations, decisions and conflicts that are part of the daily routine in product.

What people say after playing

Comments from people who already started their journey in Product Quest.

I just got promoted to Associate Product Manager and so far it's outstanding. It's extremely immersive, gives great tips and puts you in situations that absolutely show up in real life.

HHanssésAssociate Product Manager in the game

Loved it. I usually struggle with remote learning because it's hard to hold my attention, but the questions are engaging and I get curious about what comes next — I end up practicing for much longer.

JJessicaLearning product remotely

Finally a new way to learn product! Instead of watching someone explain theory, I have to decide — and that's when I notice what I still don't know.

MMarinaMoving from UX to product

I really liked the career-as-a-game format and the challenges: the context of how each one arrives, each stakeholder's profile and the decision you have to make. It makes the impact of your actions very clear.

LLeonardoProduct Intern in the game

What an experience. Early in my product journey, I learned far more by getting my hands dirty in Product Quest than with purely theoretical content. Theory matters, but this opened my mind on a lot of it.

MMateusGetting started in product

I really liked the environment and the questions — they capture what a product org actually feels like. Seeing my evaluation and where I can improve was great.

CCamilaAnalyst in transition

I'm new to product and loved the content and how it's built. I expected reading and videos, but I got excited to see the next stage and how my decisions shaped the product.

IIsabellaNew to product

The platform is wonderful and the cases it puts in front of you are excellent. It made me want to move into product even faster, and I already know which pillar I need to deepen.

VVitóriaSwitching to product

Your career. Your decisions. Your next level.

No video courses. You practice from the very first chapter, with real product trade-offs.
