About Emmett Fear

I build and scale growth systems for AI products.At Runpod, I’ve led growth across product-led, paid, and organic channels including building and scaling AI search (AEO) into a core acquisition engine and driving 10x growth in less than 3 months.Previously, I worked on Connect (Nerd), where I helped scale the business from $200K to $6.4M in monthly revenue in less than 6 months.My background in product management shapes how I approach growth: not as campaigns, but as systems where acquisition, activation, and monetization are tightly connected.I’ve worked across- Product-led growth (PLG) → turning usage into scalable acquisition- AI search (AEO) → capturing demand across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and emerging platforms- Paid + organic acquisition → SEO, performance marketing, and distribution systems- Product marketing → including collaborative launches with OpenAI and Deep CogitoThe way people discover and evaluate products is shifting quickly. I’m focused on building the acquisition systems that win in that environment.
