**Vision Statement:**
|
|
95
|
-
- The north star — concise, inspiring, stable
|
|
96
|
-
- Should fit in one breath; if it takes a paragraph, it's too long
|
|
97
|
-
- Answers "why does this product exist?"
|
|
98
|
-
- Changes rarely; when it does, it's a pivot
|
|
99
|
-
|
|
100
|
-
**Target Audience:**
|
|
101
|
-
- Specific user personas or segments, not demographics
|
|
102
|
-
- Define by behavior and need, not just job title
|
|
103
|
-
- Primary vs secondary audiences if relevant
|
|
104
|
-
- Update as you learn who actually uses the product
|
|
105
|
-
|
|
106
|
-
**Problem Statement:**
|
|
107
|
-
- Frame from the user's perspective, not the builder's
|
|
108
|
-
- Describe the current pain, not your solution
|
|
109
|
-
- Be specific — vague problems lead to vague products
|
|
110
|
-
- Validated problems > assumed problems
|
|
111
|
-
|
|
112
|
-
**Value Proposition:**
|
|
113
|
-
- The bridge between problem and product
|
|
114
|
-
- Must differentiate from alternatives
|
|
115
|
-
- "Why this, why now, why us?"
|
|
116
|
-
- Test: could a competitor say the same thing? If yes, it's not specific enough
|
|
117
|
-
|
|
118
|
-
**Key Objectives:**
|
|
119
|
-
- Measurable outcomes, not features
|
|
120
|
-
- "Users can do X" not "Build feature Y"
|
|
121
|
-
- Tie to business goals where possible
|
|
122
|
-
- 3-5 objectives max — more means no focus
|
|
123
|
-
|
|
124
|
-
**High-Level Capabilities:**
|
|
125
|
-
- Broad strokes of what the product does
|
|
126
|
-
- Think capability areas, not feature lists
|
|
127
|
-
- These inform epic and feature planning downstream
|
|
128
|
-
- Should map clearly to objectives
|
|
129
|
-
|
|
130
|
-
**Success Metrics:**
|
|
131
|
-
- Quantifiable indicators of vision achievement
|
|
132
|
-
- Include target values and how you'll measure them
|
|
133
|
-
- Leading indicators (adoption, engagement) and lagging (revenue, retention)
|
|
134
|
-
- Revisit targets as you learn from real usage
|
|
135
|
-
|
|
136
|
-
**Competitive Landscape:**
|
|
137
|
-
- Honest assessment of alternatives (including "do nothing")
|
|
138
|
-
- Focus on gaps you fill, not feature comparisons
|
|
139
|
-
- Update as the market evolves
|
|
140
|
-
|
|
141
|
-
**Constraints and Assumptions:**
|
|
142
|
-
- Hard limits on what's possible
|
|
143
|
-
- Include the "why" — constraints without rationale get challenged
|
|
144
|
-
- Assumptions are constraints that haven't been validated yet
|
|
145
|
-
- Revisit assumptions regularly
|
|
146
|
-
|
|
147
|
-
**Risks:**
|
|
148
|
-
- Uncertainties that could derail the vision
|
|
149
|
-
- Include mitigation strategies, not just identification
|
|
150
|
-
- High-impact risks need contingency plans
|
|
151
|
-
- Update as risks materialize or are resolved
|
|
152
|
-
|
|
153
|
-
**Last Updated:**
|
|
154
|
-
- Always note when and why the document was updated
|
|
155
|
-
- Format: `after Phase 2` or `after user research round 1`
|
|
156
|
-
- Triggers review of whether content is still accurate

For existing products:
|
|
187
|
-
|
|
188
|
-
1. **Map current product** — what does it actually do today?
|
|
189
|
-
|
|
190
|
-
2. **Infer Vision and Value Proposition** from existing product:
|
|
191
|
-
- What problem is it currently solving?
|
|
192
|
-
- Who is actually using it?
|
|
193
|
-
- What do users say they value most?
|
|
194
|
-
|
|
195
|
-
3. **Gather forward-looking input** from stakeholders:
|
|
196
|
-
- Where should the product go next?
|
|
197
|
-
- What's missing from the current vision?
|
|
198
|
-
|
|
199
|
-
4. **Initialize:**
|
|
200
|
-
- Vision Statement = articulation of current + aspirational direction
|
|
201
|
-
- Target Audience = actual current users + desired future users
|
|
202
|
-
- Problem Statement = validated from real usage patterns
|
|
203
|
-
- Key Objectives = mix of "maintain what works" + "build what's next"
|
|
204
|
-
- Constraints = includes existing technical debt and commitments

|
+
- Describe the current pain, not your solution
|
|
109
|
+
- Be specific — vague problems lead to vague products
|
|
110
|
+
- Validated problems > assumed problems
|
|
111
|
+
|
|
112
|
+
**Value Proposition:**
|
|
113
|
+
- The bridge between problem and product
|
|
114
|
+
- Must differentiate from alternatives
|
|
115
|
+
- "Why this, why now, why us?"
|
|
116
|
+
- Test: could a competitor say the same thing? If yes, it's not specific enough
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
**Key Objectives:**
|
|
119
|
+
- Measurable outcomes, not features
|
|
120
|
+
- "Users can do X" not "Build feature Y"
|
|
121
|
+
- Tie to business goals where possible
|
|
122
|
+
- 3-5 objectives max — more means no focus
|
|
123
|
+
|
|
124
|
+
**High-Level Capabilities:**
|
|
125
|
+
- Broad strokes of what the product does
|
|
126
|
+
- Think capability areas, not feature lists
|
|
127
|
+
- These inform epic and feature planning downstream
|
|
128
|
+
- Should map clearly to objectives
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
**Success Metrics:**
|
|
131
|
+
- Quantifiable indicators of vision achievement
|
|
132
|
+
- Include target values and how you'll measure them
|
|
133
|
+
- Leading indicators (adoption, engagement) and lagging (revenue, retention)
|
|
134
|
+
- Revisit targets as you learn from real usage
|
|
135
|
+
|
|
136
|
+
**Competitive Landscape:**
|
|
137
|
+
- Honest assessment of alternatives (including "do nothing")
|
|
138
|
+
- Focus on gaps you fill, not feature comparisons
|
|
139
|
+
- Update as the market evolves
|
|
140
|
+
|
|
141
|
+
**Constraints and Assumptions:**
|
|
142
|
+
- Hard limits on what's possible
|
|
143
|
+
- Include the "why" — constraints without rationale get challenged
|
|
144
|
+
- Assumptions are constraints that haven't been validated yet
|
|
145
|
+
- Revisit assumptions regularly
|
|
146
|
+
|
|
147
|
+
**Risks:**
|
|
148
|
+
- Uncertainties that could derail the vision
|
|
149
|
+
- Include mitigation strategies, not just identification
|
|
150
|
+
- High-impact risks need contingency plans
|
|
151
|
+
- Update as risks materialize or are resolved
|
|
152
|
+
|
|
153
|
+
**Last Updated:**
|
|
154
|
+
- Always note when and why the document was updated
|
|
155
|
+
- Format: `after Phase 2` or `after user research round 1`
|
|
156
|
+
- Triggers review of whether content is still accurate

product-vision.md evolves throughout the product lifecycle, but slower than most artifacts.
|
|
163
|
+
|
|
164
|
+
**After user research or discovery:**
|
|
165
|
+
1. Problem Statement still accurate? → Refine with evidence
|
|
166
|
+
2. Target Audience validated? → Update personas with real data
|
|
167
|
+
3. New risks or assumptions surfaced? → Add them
|
|
168
|
+
4. Value Proposition resonating? → Sharpen or pivot
|
|
169
|
+
|
|
170
|
+
**After each major release:**
|
|
171
|
+
1. Key Objectives met? → Mark achieved, add new ones
|
|
172
|
+
2. Success Metrics hitting targets? → Adjust targets or strategy
|
|
173
|
+
3. Competitive Landscape shifted? → Update positioning
|
|
174
|
+
4. Vision Statement still inspiring and accurate? → Refine if drifted
|
|
175
|
+
|
|
176
|
+
**After a pivot or strategic shift:**
|
|
177
|
+
1. Full review of all sections
|
|
178
|
+
2. Vision Statement rewrite
|
|
179
|
+
3. Problem Statement and Value Proposition realignment
|
|
180
|
+
4. Archive previous version for reference

For existing products:
|
|
187
|
+
|
|
188
|
+
1. **Map current product** — what does it actually do today?
|
|
189
|
+
|
|
190
|
+
2. **Infer Vision and Value Proposition** from existing product:
|
|
191
|
+
- What problem is it currently solving?
|
|
192
|
+
- Who is actually using it?
|
|
193
|
+
- What do users say they value most?
|
|
194
|
+
|
|
195
|
+
3. **Gather forward-looking input** from stakeholders:
|
|
196
|
+
- Where should the product go next?
|
|
197
|
+
- What's missing from the current vision?
|
|
198
|
+
|
|
199
|
+
4. **Initialize:**
|
|
200
|
+
- Vision Statement = articulation of current + aspirational direction
|
|
201
|
+
- Target Audience = actual current users + desired future users
|
|
202
|
+
- Problem Statement = validated from real usage patterns
|
|
203
|
+
- Key Objectives = mix of "maintain what works" + "build what's next"
|
|
204
|
+
- Constraints = includes existing technical debt and commitments
