Most startups don’t fail because they lack ideas; they fail because they lose momentum in the “Messy Middle”, the gap between an MVP and a scalable, data-backed product.
The bridge between vision and velocity.
The "Messy Middle"
I founded Momentum Inspired to close that gap. As a Fractional Head of Product, I provide the strategic oversight of a veteran executive with the hands-on execution of a startup founder.
Intelligence Over Guesswork.
In the 2026 landscape, “good enough” is no longer a strategy.
My approach is rooted in three non-negotiables:
0-to-1 Precision
Building the right foundation the first time so you don’t have to rebuild it later.
AI-First Thinking
Moving beyond the hype to integrate LLMs and data intelligence into the core value proposition.
Global Synchronicity
Aligning distributed teams across time zones to ensure that ‘remote’ never means ‘disconnected’.
Plug-and-play leadership without the overhead.
High-growth startups need senior leadership, but they don’t always need the $300k+ overhead of a full-time VP of Product.
Evaluating outcomes, not just output.
I’ve spent my career navigating the pressures of global product launches and the chaos of early-stage pivots. I understand that behind every roadmap is a founder’s vision and an investor’s expectation.
I don’t just manage features, I manage outcomes.
The "Momentum" Code
Radical Transparency
No sugar-coating. If the data says a feature isn’t working, we pivot.
Bias for Action
Strategy is useless without shipping. We move fast, learn faster.
User-Centric AI
We build AI features that solve real human problems, not just follow trends.
About me
Helping 0-to-1 startups turn roadmap friction into product intelligence and scalable growth.
I’m Filippo Ferri
My mission is to reduce complexity and help teams focus on what actually moves the business forward.
I specialize in 0-to-1 innovation, go-to-market strategy, and product–market fit acceleration, combining product intuition with rigorous data.
Over the years, I have led distributed product and engineering teams across time zones, using data to replace opinions with evidence. I help teams stop guessing, align around the right problems, and build products that earn traction for the right reasons.
