In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc and Ben take you behind the scenes of building Insider Loops—a new set of interview prep guides designed to give candidates the inside track at some of tech’s most competitive companies. They break down why they saw the opportunity, how they rapidly prototyped and shipped their first guides, and what they learned from dozens of conversations with PMs and hiring managers.

From uncovering hidden disconnects between great PMs and great interviewees, to the surprising differences in how Uber, Figma, and Stripe run their loops, this episode blends entrepreneurship, product thinking, and tactical job-search insights. Whether you’re preparing for your next role or just curious about how Marc and Ben collaborated async to launch a new product, you’ll walk away with practical takeaways and fresh perspective.
