Unabated PM Coaching

28 AI coaching skills that teach you to think like a senior PM. Not templates that fill in blanks. Coaching that pushes back on your thinking, scores your work, and shows you exactly where it breaks down.

Built from coaching 500+ product managers. Moving PMs from Stuck to Strategic. 4.8/5 course rating on Maven.


What You Get

Most AI "PM tools" apply a framework like a checklist. These skills coach you through it the way a VP of Product would — with scoring rubrics, real coaching exchanges, error correction, and pushback on weak reasoning. They detect your level and adjust.

28 individual skills across four areas, plus guided workflows that chain skills together into complete coaching sessions.

Quick Example

Here's what a coaching session looks like. You provide context, the skill coaches you through the framework:

I'm pitching a new integration to three stakeholders on Thursday.
VP Sales wants it. VP Engineering just had a production incident.
CMO owns customer messaging. I have a clean ROI deck but I'm
worried about Engineering slowing it down.

The Adversarial Stakeholder Prep skill will:

  1. Archetype each stakeholder (Risk Shield, Credit Catcher, or Tribal Guardian)
  2. Ask three diagnostic questions per person (fired / promoted / validated)
  3. Build the Adversarial Stakeholder Prompt so you can stress-test your read with AI
  4. Read the three objections back — especially the one they'd never say out loud
  5. Rewrite your opening sentence for the highest-risk person in the room

No generic advice. Specific coaching that forces you to decode the room, not just polish the deck.
