Agentic Product Development
We build AI-first products and give teams the methodology to do the same. Agents handle the process overhead. Humans focus on customers and strategy.
What We Build
Agentic PM Playbook
An open-source methodology and Claude Code plugin for AI-augmented product management. Built on Continuous Discovery Habits and Opportunity Solution Trees — 18 agent skills across 4 capability layers so teams can automate the process overhead and focus entirely on customers and strategy.
HipTrip
An AI travel planning app for culturally curious travelers who are tired of TripAdvisor's top-10 lists. Generates curated itineraries built on hand-vetted Hip Places — neighborhood restaurants, local trails, and under-the-radar spots. Built end-to-end using the agentic PM approach.
Golden Wealth
An estate planning and family wealth management platform that replaces the shoebox of documents with a secure, collaborative vault. Every feature traces back to a validated customer opportunity in the OST — role-based access, AI document assistant, Plaid integration, and more.
Who We Are
RB Code Labs is Rick Bowman — builder, PM, and the person who started coding at 10, wrote a software development book at 19, and has spent 30 years being the rare person who can hold both sides.
The product problem and the technical solution.
Product and tech felt a little settled for a while — the patterns were known, the frameworks reliable. Then AI changed everything. Not as a tool to go faster, but as a way to automate the process overhead that was never the interesting part anyway. Now the interesting part is all that's left.
The Agentic PM Playbook is the operating system for that way of working — published openly so any PM or team can adopt it.
