Context Is a Product Discipline: Stewardship, Ontology and the Product Factory

ProductCamp 2026, Session Proposals

AI products don’t fail on models. They fail on context nobody owns. This session treats context as a product discipline, not a prompt trick. Misha Sulpovar walks through how to design it as a system: stewards who own each body of knowledge, an ontology that gives agents a shared map of what things mean, and isolation so each agent sees only what it should and forgets what it shouldn’t. Then we put it together as a product factory, where governed context lets teams ship AI features again and again without starting from scratch. Bring a product you’re working on. We’ll sketch its context system live, so you leave with a map of who owns what, how it connects, and where the walls go.

Join us at ProductCamp Atlanta 2026 to vote on this session and dozens of others! The attendees will choose the agenda for the day, and can be part of it!
