About Mathieu

37% de rétention D30 sur mon dernier produit, environ 5x le benchmark mobile grand public. Et je l'ai codé moi-même.


Co-fondateur et CPTO de Trace, j'ai construit Trace Bingo de zéro : un jeu de prédictions F1 qui tourne à chaque Grand Prix, sur web, iOS et Android, en 8 langues. Frontend, apps mobiles, orchestration email (300K messages/mois générés par IA), pipeline de traduction : le tout avec Claude Code en pair programmer.


La plupart des profils produit arrivent avec une roadmap et ont besoin d'une équipe pour l'exécuter. Moi, j'arrive et je livre.


Ce que je peux faire pour vous :
  • Construire et livrer votre produit. Vous avez quelque chose à sortir et pas le budget d'une équipe complète. J'interviens 2 jours par semaine et je livre du logiciel qui tourne, pas des specs.
  • Monter votre moteur de croissance. Rétention, expérimentation, cohortes de contrôle. À l'OM, une restructuration de l'abonnement payant a triplé le taux d'abonnement, réduit le churn de 20% et augmenté la LTV de 36%.
  • Rendre votre équipe AI-native. La pratique réelle, pas une présentation : ce qu'on délègue à Claude Code, ce qu'on ne délègue jamais.

Avant Trace : Head of Product fondateur chez Elemint (plateforme vendue à Formula 1, Universal Music et l'OM), puis 4 ans à piloter le digital de l'Olympique de Marseille.

20 ans de produit. 4 boîtes montées de zéro à un. Basé à Marseille, en remote avec des équipes partout.

    Trace Bingo, zero to one: defined the game loop, leagues, identity, creator tooling and content pipeline. Live in 8 languages on web, iOS and Android. F1 beta in 6 weeks with no paid media: 25K players, 750 active leagues, NPS 50, 0.6 k-factor, 8 creator and community partners.

    Growth engine: weekly A/B tests on messaging with a rolling 10% control cohort held back from activation, monthly user research, race-to-race iteration on retention as the primary metric. 37% median D30 and 24-27% D90 across 2026 season cohorts, roughly 5x the consumer mobile benchmark.

    AI-native shipping: Trace Bingo's frontend, mobile apps, full email orchestration with AI-generated content (300K msgs/month), translation pipeline across 8 languages, and a Virtual CFO agent for investor and VC interaction, all built with Claude Code as pair programmer. AI as the multiplier on production infrastructure, not a slide. Trace dynamic on-chain sport collectibles on Sui, debuting with the ATP Tour at the 2024 Nitto ATP Finals in Turin. ~125K accounts. Led 2 PMs + 3 engineers + 1 designer on the Trace side.
