Butter Labs by Miloni Sheth, product leader, designer and builder

I'm Miloni Sheth. I built and scaled Naia, a social commerce platform, from zero, after nearly a decade building marketplace products at Thumbtack and Upwork. Now I help other founders do the same.

Butter, because that's how I think good products should feel. And everything's better with butter :)

Work with me

Fractional product advisor and builder.

I help early-stage founders and teams decide what to build, design it well, and get it in front of users, without a full-time hire. I built and scaled Naia, a social commerce platform, from zero. Before that I led product, strategy and design at Thumbtack and Upwork.

01

2-week build sprint

We pressure-test the idea, define the first version, and build it together. You leave with a working product in front of real users and a plan for what comes next.

Fractional product advisor

An ongoing partnership. A few days a month with your team on product direction, design, and the calls that are hard to make alone.
