EP 137 - Startups: Arkhet with Nathan Ngai

Product for Product Management

Show Notes

As we traditionally have done in previous years, we’re excited to feature innovative founders who are building exciting tools for product professionals. Continuing our Startups of 2025 series, we welcome Nathan Ngai, CEO and founder of Arkhet.

On the show, we explore with Nathan his journey—from over a decade in product design, running countless discovery workshops and design sprints, to becoming a founder aiming to rethink how AI can work for product people. Frustrated by the boom of AI tools that overpromised yet underdelivered, Nathan set out to build Arkhet—an AI-powered wireframing and prototyping platform designed to give product managers and teams more control, speed, and clarity.

With Arkhet, instead of relying solely on the back-and-forth of prompt engineering (and getting results you didn’t ask for), users start visually—building wireframes and layering prompts on top of them. It’s a purposeful approach: if you know what you want to build, Arkhet lets you highlight and describe specific sections, apply your style guide, and collaborate more effectively with designers. The short-term goal: empower PMs to create prototypes faster and more collaboratively, with future possibilities that could extend into full product builds.

Join Matt and Moshe as they explore with Nathan:The founding story of Arkhet and why visual prompting solves a major gap in today’s AI tools How Arkhet integrates the best of traditional wireframing with generative AI to speed up prototyping The differences between Arkhet and other AI design/prototyping products How it streamlines the collaboration between product managers and designers Beta success stories and why Product Managers are choosing Arkhet over other AI tools Pivoting from a designer-first ICP to focusing on Product Managers—and why both roles will remain crucial Why AI won’t replace Product Managers or designers, but can help them work better and faster The roadmap for style guide personalization, Figma integration, and beyond And much more!
