The Feature Trap: Why Building More Can Kill Your Product

Join Fredrik Mattsson, CEO of Inamo, for a deep dive into one of the most common—and costly—mistakes in software development: building too much. With over a decade of experience in enterprise SaaS and digital transformation, Fredrik has seen firsthand how "feature bloat" slows down engineering teams and confuses users. In this episode, we explore how modern product teams are shifting away from "building and hoping" toward an evidence-led approach, using AI to turn qualitative user feedback into actionable insights before a single line of code is written. 🎯 Insights You’ll Learn: ✓ The Hidden Cost of Feature Bloat: Why more features often lead to a worse product ✓ Evidence-Led Product Decisions: Moving from assumptions to validated user insights ✓ Avoiding Wasted Engineering: How to kill bad ideas before they reach production ✓ The AI Revolution in UX: Using modern tools to run fast, continuous qualitative tests ✓ Building Inamo: How AI-powered analysis is helping design teams scale their research ✓ Scaling SaaS in the Nordics: Lessons from a decade of international growth and strategy ✓ Smarter Product Strategy: Balancing speed with high-confidence user validation 🌍 Why This Matters: In the race to innovate, many companies assume that velocity equals adding more "stuff." In reality, the most successful products are those that solve the right problems with precision. As AI makes it easier than ever to build, the real competitive advantage lies in knowing what not to build. Fredrik Mattsson is providing the framework and tools for teams to regain their focus, reduce complexity, and ensure that every new feature is backed by real-world evidence. 👤 Expert Background: • CEO of Inamo, an AI-driven user research platform for product and design teams • 10+ years of experience in Enterprise SaaS and Digital Transformation • Former senior commercial leader for high-growth tech companies across the Nordics • Expert in UX research, evidence-led decision making, and international SaaS scaling • Thought leader and speaker on product strategy and AI-powered consumer insights 🎙️ Hosted by Gary Fowler, CEO of GSD Venture Studios — global AI entrepreneur, investor, and innovation leader spotlighting founders navigating the realities of building in the AI era. 💡 Perfect For: Product Managers, UX Designers, SaaS Founders, Engineering Leads, and anyone tired of the "feature factory" cycle who wants to build products that users actually love. 🚀 Timely Topic: With the cost of development rising and user attention spans shrinking, the winners in 2026 will be the teams that use AI not just to build faster, but to listen better.
