You think your product's features should be front-and-center, but maybe something else should be featured.
It might be better that your buyer be featured, instead.

What Your Product Features
Say you enter a crowded product space. All the existing products, they all have the features that buyers expect.And say this type of product is meant to be bought by a manager, and used by a team.

Gmail's filters have been broken for years.

It was not mobile-responsive.
It was not accessible to screen readers.
It was never published live.
But!
It had a table-based layout (that car was spliced to work).
It had spacer gifs.
It has transparent gifs.
It used Verdana.
It was a lot of fun to design in Photoshop 6.0.

A great product does two things well. It helps with the main thing it's supposed to do for the buyer, and it does a second job too.
That second job is "help me be seen by my crowd". Help me have status. "If I tell others, it'll help me be seen."

On Tesla working on bringing CarPlay support:
Friend of mine who owns a Tesla came into my car: "Oh you have CarPlay" he exclaims with a tinge of envy.
My car has a small CarPlay screen though comparatively. But even then, CarPlay is nice.

In the AI revolution, incumbents are embracing new tech instantly, spending big and innovating.
Unlike previous tech revolutions.
Startups don’t get a multi-year head start.
So, you have to follow a different playbook.

AI startups require new strategies: This time it’s actually different
The typical dynamics between startups and incumbents do not apply in AI as they did in previous technology revolutions like mobile and the Internet. Ignore this at your peril.

Cursor—a tool company—getting into the model game is super interesting.
Purpose-built LLMs that are far superior at the job-to-be-done of the tool is a trend I'm sure we haven't seen the last of—especially from makers of tools for builders/creators.
