Maura K. Randall
“An AI-native product leader.” — Tom Tsao · former eBay & Atlassian exec, now GVP at DocuSign · 2026
A working AI practice, built in public

I built a working practice for how humans and AI actually collaborate.

The Human-AI Loop methodology, the Triad operating model, and a portfolio of live, shipped AI products. Practitioner, not commentator.
