Add Google Gemini exports as a second generated platform
Proves the PLATFORMS registry extends cleanly: adds Gemini (Gem instructions) alongside ChatGPT, generated from the same SKILL.md source. - scripts/build-exports.mjs: register `gemini` -> exports/gemini/<bundle>/<skill>/ GEM_INSTRUCTIONS.md (body + a one-line role primer from the description). - Fix: the root exports/README.md now always lists every registered platform, so `--platform x` no longer drops the others from the overview. - exports/gemini/: 172 generated Gem instruction files + index. - README "Ready-to-use exports" and CHANGELOG now list Gemini.

# Competitive Analysis Skill
|
||||
|
||||
Create structured competitive analyses for product decision-making.
|
||||
|
||||
## Required Inputs
|
||||
|
||||
Ask the user for these if not provided:
|
||||
- **Your product or company** (what you're comparing against)
|
||||
- **Competitors to analyze** (or ask to identify the top 3-5)
|
||||
- **Analysis focus** (full landscape / feature comparison / pricing / positioning / win-loss)
|
||||
- **Audience** (product team / leadership / sales / board)
|
||||
|
||||
## Process
|
||||
|
||||
1. Gather competitor information from provided inputs and available context
|
||||
2. Build profiles for each competitor
|
||||
3. Create feature comparison matrix on dimensions that matter to the user's customers
|
||||
4. Analyze pricing and positioning
|
||||
5. Identify win/loss patterns and strategic implications
|
||||
6. **Validate** — Confirm all claims reference a specific source or are flagged as assumptions. Verify feature comparisons note quality differences, not just presence/absence.
|
||||
|
||||
## Output Structure
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Executive Summary
|
||||
- **Market Position**: Where we stand relative to competitors
|
||||
- **Key Findings**: Top 3-5 insights
|
||||
- **Strategic Implications**: What this means for the roadmap
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Competitor Profiles
|
||||
|
||||
For each competitor:
|
||||
- **Company Overview**: Size, funding, market position
|
||||
- **Target Customer**: Who they serve
|
||||
- **Value Proposition**: Core positioning
|
||||
- **Strengths / Weaknesses**: What they do well and where they fall short
|
||||
- **Recent Activity**: Major updates, funding, announcements
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Feature Comparison Matrix
|
||||
|
||||
| Feature | Us | Competitor A | Competitor B | Competitor C |
|
||||
|---------|-----|--------------|--------------|--------------|
|
||||
| [Feature] | ✅ Full | ⚠️ Limited | ❌ None | ✅ Full |
|
||||
|
||||
Legend: ✅ Full (production-ready) · ⚠️ Limited/Beta · ❌ None
|
||||
|
||||
Include notes on quality and implementation differences where significant.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Pricing Comparison
|
||||
|
||||
| Plan | Us | Competitor A | Competitor B |
|
||||
|------|-----|--------------|--------------|
|
||||
| Free/Trial | [price] | [price] | [price] |
|
||||
| Pro | [price] | [price] | [price] |
|
||||
| Enterprise | [price] | [price] | [price] |
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Market Positioning Map
|
||||
|
||||
Position competitors on two key dimensions relevant to the market:
|
||||
- Y-Axis: [e.g., Enterprise vs. SMB]
|
||||
- X-Axis: [e.g., Simple vs. Comprehensive]
|
||||
|
||||
**Whitespace Opportunities**: [Underserved segments]
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Win/Loss Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
**Why We Win:**
|
||||
- Better at: [specific capabilities]
|
||||
- Customers who value: [what matters to them]
|
||||
|
||||
**Why We Lose:**
|
||||
- When customers need: [specific requirements]
|
||||
- Their advantage: [what tips the decision]
|
||||
|
||||
### 7. Strategic Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
**Immediate Actions (0-3 months):**
|
||||
1. [Action] — [Rationale]
|
||||
|
||||
**Medium-term (3-12 months):**
|
||||
1. [Action] — [Rationale]
|
||||
|
||||
## Anti-Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Do not present competitor feature claims as facts without citing a source or flagging them as assumptions — outdated or incorrect feature data misleads sales and product decisions
|
||||
- [ ] Do not build a competitive analysis that only covers features — pricing, messaging, go-to-market motion, and who they hire for are equally strategic signals
|
||||
- [ ] Do not treat all buyers as identical — the same product may win against Competitor A in the enterprise segment and lose in SMB; segment-specific win/loss matters
|
||||
- [ ] Do not soften weaknesses and threats in the SWOT to avoid internal discomfort — an honest SWOT is only useful if the negatives are real
|
||||
|
||||
## Quality Checks
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] All competitor claims cite a source or are flagged as assumptions
|
||||
- [ ] Feature comparison notes quality differences, not just feature presence
|
||||
- [ ] Strategic recommendations are specific actions, not generic advice
|
||||
- [ ] Win/loss analysis reflects customer perspective, not internal assumptions
|
||||
- [ ] Different customer segments are considered (not all buyers value the same things)

# Word Doc Tracked Changes Skill
|
||||
|
||||
Produces properly-structured tracked changes for a Word document — insertions, deletions, replacements, and margin comments formatted so they can be applied directly to the source document. Built to leverage Opus 4.7 improvements in .docx redlining and tracked changes generation.
|
||||
|
||||
## Required Inputs
|
||||
|
||||
Ask the user for these if not provided:
|
||||
- **The document** (paste the text or upload the .docx)
|
||||
- **Review type** (legal review / copy edit / substantive rewrite / compliance check / plain English rewrite)
|
||||
- **Review scope** (full document / specific sections / specific clause type)
|
||||
- **Reviewer role** (author / manager / legal counsel / subject matter expert)
|
||||
|
||||
## Output Structure
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Redline Summary
|
||||
|
||||
**Document:** [Name or identifier]
|
||||
**Review type:** [As stated]
|
||||
**Reviewer:** [Role]
|
||||
**Total changes:** [Insertions: N / Deletions: N / Comments: N]
|
||||
**Overall assessment:** [1-2 sentences — is this document close to final, or does it need substantial revision?]
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Top-Level Changes
|
||||
|
||||
Changes that affect the meaning or structure of the document:
|
||||
|
||||
**Change N — [Section or paragraph reference]**
|
||||
- Original: "[Exact original text]"
|
||||
- Suggested: "[Proposed new text]"
|
||||
- Reason: [Why this change — substantive/legal/clarity]
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Line-by-Line Tracked Changes
|
||||
|
||||
For each paragraph that needs changes, format as:
|
||||
|
||||
**[Paragraph reference — e.g. "Section 3, Paragraph 2"]**
|
||||
|
||||
Original:
|
||||
> [Exact original paragraph]
|
||||
|
||||
Tracked changes:
|
||||
> [Same paragraph with deletions marked as ~~strikethrough~~ and insertions marked as **bold**]
|
||||
|
||||
Clean version:
|
||||
> [Final clean text after applying changes]
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Margin Comments
|
||||
|
||||
Comments that flag issues without proposing a specific wording change:
|
||||
|
||||
**Comment N — [Location]**
|
||||
"[Comment text — written as the reviewer would write it. Direct, specific, actionable.]"
|
||||
|
||||
Comments are for things like:
|
||||
- "This clause conflicts with Section 7 — please reconcile"
|
||||
- "Missing definition of [term] used throughout"
|
||||
- "Confirm figure with finance team"
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Stylistic Edits
|
||||
|
||||
Line-level stylistic changes (if scope includes copy editing):
|
||||
|
||||
| Location | Before | After | Reason |
|
||||
|---|---|---|---|
|
||||
| Para 3 | [Text] | [Text] | [Readability/grammar/consistency] |
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Pattern Flags
|
||||
|
||||
Issues that repeat across the document:
|
||||
|
||||
**[Pattern — e.g. "Passive voice overuse"]**
|
||||
- Instances: [count]
|
||||
- Examples: [2-3 specific locations]
|
||||
- Suggested approach: [How to address]
|
||||
|
||||
### 7. Review Completeness
|
||||
|
||||
| Review dimension | Covered |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| Grammar and syntax | Yes / No |
|
||||
| Clarity and readability | Yes / No |
|
||||
| Substantive accuracy | Yes / No / N/A |
|
||||
| Compliance/legal check | Yes / No / N/A |
|
||||
| Consistency with referenced documents | Yes / No / N/A |
|
||||
|
||||
### 8. How to Apply These Changes
|
||||
|
||||
Instructions for applying the redline:
|
||||
|
||||
**In Microsoft Word:**
|
||||
1. Enable Track Changes (Review tab → Track Changes)
|
||||
2. Apply the changes from Section 3 in order
|
||||
3. Add comments from Section 4 using Review → New Comment
|
||||
4. Send the redlined document back to the reviewer
|
||||
|
||||
**In Google Docs:**
|
||||
1. Switch to Suggesting mode (top right pencil icon)
|
||||
2. Apply the changes from Section 3
|
||||
3. Add comments using the comment button in the margin
|
||||
|
||||
## Quality Checks
|
||||
- [ ] Every tracked change has the original text preserved exactly
|
||||
- [ ] Substantive changes are separated from stylistic changes
|
||||
- [ ] Comments are written as the reviewer would write them, not meta-commentary
|
||||
- [ ] Pattern issues identified separately from individual changes
|
||||
- [ ] Application instructions match the target platform
|
||||
|
||||
## Anti-Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Do not paraphrase original text when creating tracked deletions — the original text must be preserved exactly, character for character, or the tracked change cannot be reviewed against source
|
||||
- [ ] Do not mix substantive changes with stylistic edits in the same section — reviewers need to approve substantive changes at a different threshold than copy edits
|
||||
- [ ] Do not write margin comments as meta-commentary about the review process ("This section needs work") — comments must be actionable instructions the author can act on
|
||||
- [ ] Do not flag every imperfect sentence as a change — over-redlining trains authors to accept changes without reading, which defeats the purpose of tracked review
|
||||
- [ ] Do not produce a redline without a summary of top-level changes — reviewers read the summary first and use it to decide which changes to scrutinise in detail
|
||||
|
||||
## Example Trigger Phrases
|
||||
- "Redline this contract"
|
||||
- "Create tracked changes for this document"
|
||||
- "Mark up this document with proposed edits"
|
||||
- "Review this and suggest changes in tracked changes format"
|
||||
- "Give me a redline version of this draft"
|
||||
|
||||
## Why This Works Better on Opus 4.7
|
||||
Tracked changes require the model to preserve source text exactly while suggesting alternatives — earlier models would paraphrase the original or lose track of which text was original vs suggested. Opus 4.7 improvements specifically target this workflow.

|
||||
- [ ] Every action item has a single named owner (not "team")
|
||||
- [ ] Every action item has a concrete deadline
|
||||
- [ ] Decisions include context (why the decision was made)
|
||||
- [ ] Open questions have an owner and a "by when"
|
||||
- [ ] No verbatim transcripts — synthesis only
|
||||
|
||||
## Anti-Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Do not assign action items to "the team" or "everyone" — every action item must have exactly one named owner or it will not be completed
|
||||
- [ ] Do not capture verbatim transcript content — meeting notes record decisions and commitments, not the full conversational path to get there
|
||||
- [ ] Do not omit the context for decisions — a decision without its rationale is useless when someone asks "why did we do that?" six months later
|
||||
- [ ] Do not leave open questions without an owner and deadline — an unanswered question with no follow-up assigned is a blocked decision
|
||||
- [ ] Do not delay sending notes beyond 2 hours after the meeting — notes sent the next day miss the window when action item owners can act on commitments while fresh
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes Distribution
|
||||
|
||||
**Subject Line Format**: "[Meeting Type] Notes - [Date] - [Key Topic]"
|
||||
|
||||
Example: "Product Roadmap Review Notes - Jan 20 - Q1 Prioritization"
|
||||
|
||||
**Recipients**:
|
||||
- All attendees
|
||||
- Anyone mentioned in action items
|
||||
- Anyone who requested notes
|
||||
|
||||
**Follow-Up**:
|
||||
- Send reminder 3 days before action item due dates
|
||||
- Weekly summary of all open action items
|
||||
- Mark action items as complete and share updates

# PRD Template Skill
|
||||
|
||||
This skill helps create professional Product Requirements Documents following industry best practices.
|
||||
|
||||
## Required Inputs
|
||||
|
||||
Ask the user for these if not provided:
|
||||
- **Feature or product name**
|
||||
- **Problem being solved** (from the user's perspective)
|
||||
- **Target user** (role, context, what they're trying to accomplish)
|
||||
- **Success metrics** (how will you know it worked?)
|
||||
- **Scope** (MVP vs full vision — what's in and out of scope)
|
||||
- **Key stakeholders** (who needs to review and approve)
|
||||
|
||||
## Template Structure
|
||||
|
||||
Every PRD should include these sections in order:
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Overview
|
||||
- **Problem Statement**: What problem are we solving? (2-3 sentences)
|
||||
- **Proposed Solution**: High-level description of what we're building (2-3 sentences)
|
||||
- **Success Metrics**: How we'll measure success (3-5 key metrics)
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Context & Background
|
||||
- **Why Now**: Why is this the right time?
|
||||
- **Strategic Alignment**: How does this align with company objectives?
|
||||
- **User Research Summary**: Key insights from research (if applicable)
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. User Stories & Use Cases
|
||||
Format: "As a [user type], I want to [action] so that [benefit]"
|
||||
- Include 3-7 primary user stories
|
||||
- Add acceptance criteria for each
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Requirements
|
||||
**Functional Requirements:**
|
||||
- Must-have features (P0)
|
||||
- Should-have features (P1)
|
||||
- Nice-to-have features (P2)
|
||||
|
||||
**Non-Functional Requirements:**
|
||||
- Performance expectations
|
||||
- Security considerations
|
||||
- Accessibility requirements
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Design & User Experience
|
||||
- Link to design mocks or wireframes
|
||||
- Key user flows
|
||||
- Edge cases and error states
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Technical Considerations
|
||||
- Architecture implications
|
||||
- Dependencies on other systems
|
||||
- Technical risks and mitigations
|
||||
|
||||
### 7. Implementation Plan
|
||||
- **Phase 1 (MVP)**: What goes in first version
|
||||
- **Phase 2**: What comes next
|
||||
- **Phase 3**: Future enhancements
|
||||
|
||||
### 8. Open Questions
|
||||
- Decisions that still need to be made
|
||||
- Stakeholders to consult
|
||||
- Research needed
|
||||
|
||||
### 9. Appendix
|
||||
- Research links
|
||||
- Related documents
|
||||
- Competitive analysis
|
||||
|
||||
## Writing Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
**Tone**: Clear, concise, actionable
|
||||
**Audience**: Engineers, designers, stakeholders
|
||||
**Length**: Aim for 3-6 pages for features, 8-12 for products
|
||||
|
||||
**Best Practices:**
|
||||
- Use concrete examples over abstractions
|
||||
- Include "why" not just "what"
|
||||
- Make requirements testable
|
||||
- Link to supporting materials
|
||||
- Update as decisions are made
|
||||
|
||||
## What Makes a Good PRD
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Do:**
|
||||
- Write from the user's perspective
|
||||
- Include specific success metrics
|
||||
- Address edge cases
|
||||
- Link to research and data
|
||||
- Make trade-offs explicit
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **Don't:**
|
||||
- Write implementation details (that's tech spec)
|
||||
- Assume everyone has context
|
||||
- Leave requirements ambiguous
|
||||
- Skip the "why"
|
||||
- Forget about accessibility
|
||||
|
||||
## Quality Checks
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Problem statement is written from the user's perspective (not the company's)
|
||||
- [ ] Success metrics are specific and measurable
|
||||
- [ ] User stories include acceptance criteria
|
||||
- [ ] Requirements are testable (not vague)
|
||||
- [ ] Open questions are listed explicitly
|
||||
- [ ] Implementation plan distinguishes MVP from future phases
|
||||
|
||||
## Anti-Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Do not write requirements from the company's perspective — every requirement must trace back to a user need
|
||||
- [ ] Do not include vague requirements like "the system should be fast" — every requirement must be testable
|
||||
- [ ] Do not conflate MVP with future phases — be explicit about what is and is not in scope for the first release
|
||||
- [ ] Do not leave success metrics as percentages without baselines — specify the current state and the target
|
||||
- [ ] Do not skip open questions — unresolved assumptions are risks; surfacing them is the PM's job

# PRD: Multi-Channel Customer Support Dashboard
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem Statement**: Support teams are currently managing customer inquiries across email, chat, and social media using three separate tools, leading to delayed responses, duplicated work, and inconsistent customer experiences. On average, support agents waste 2.3 hours per day switching between tools and manually tracking conversation history.
|
||||
|
||||
**Proposed Solution**: Build a unified dashboard that aggregates customer inquiries from all channels into a single interface, maintains conversation history across channels, and provides intelligent routing based on agent expertise and availability.
|
||||
|
||||
**Success Metrics**:
|
||||
- Reduce average response time from 4 hours to 1 hour
|
||||
- Decrease tool-switching time by 80% (from 2.3 to <0.5 hours)
|
||||
- Improve customer satisfaction score from 3.8 to 4.5 (out of 5)
|
||||
- Increase support agent productivity by 35%
|
||||
|
||||
## Context & Background
|
||||
|
||||
**Why Now**: Customer satisfaction has declined 15% over the past 6 months, primarily due to slow response times. Our top competitor launched a unified support dashboard last quarter, and we're hearing about it in sales calls. Support team turnover is at 45% annually, with "tool complexity" cited as a top frustration.
|
||||
|
||||
**Strategic Alignment**: This aligns with our Q1 company objective to "Improve customer retention by 10%" and our support team's OKR to "Reduce average handle time by 25%."
|
||||
|
||||
**User Research Summary**: We conducted interviews with 12 support agents and observed 20 hours of support sessions. Key findings:
|
||||
- Agents spend 35% of their time finding context from previous interactions
|
||||
- 65% of escalations are due to lack of conversation history
|
||||
- Agents rated tool-switching as their #1 daily frustration (9.2/10 pain)
|
||||
- Current NPS for support experience is -12
|
||||
|
||||
## User Stories & Use Cases
|
||||
|
||||
**US1: Unified Inbox**
|
||||
As a support agent, I want to see all customer inquiries in one place so that I don't miss urgent requests and can prioritize effectively.
|
||||
|
||||
Acceptance Criteria:
|
||||
- Inbox shows inquiries from email, chat, and social media
|
||||
- Inquiries are sorted by priority (urgent, high, normal, low)
|
||||
- Agent can filter by channel, customer, or status
|
||||
- Real-time updates when new inquiries arrive
|
||||
|
||||
**US2: Cross-Channel Context**
|
||||
As a support agent, I want to see the full conversation history regardless of channel so that I can provide consistent, informed responses without asking customers to repeat themselves.
|
||||
|
||||
Acceptance Criteria:
|
||||
- Timeline view shows all interactions chronologically
|
||||
- Each interaction displays channel, timestamp, and content
|
||||
- Customer profile shows demographics and account information
|
||||
- Previous issues and resolutions are accessible

|
||||
|
||||
## Required Inputs
|
||||
|
||||
Ask the user for these if not provided:
|
||||
- **Project or product being reported on**
|
||||
- **Audience** (CEO, board, cross-functional leads, investors — changes depth and format)
|
||||
- **Period** (this week / this sprint / this month)
|
||||
- **Current status** (on track / at risk / blocked)
|
||||
- **Key metrics** and their current values vs. targets
|
||||
|
||||
## Update Structure
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front)
|
||||
Start with the most important information:
|
||||
- **Status**: 🟢 On track / 🟡 At risk / 🔴 Blocked / ✅ Complete
|
||||
- **Key Takeaway**: One sentence summary of current state
|
||||
- **Action Needed**: What you need from stakeholders (if anything)
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Progress Summary
|
||||
Brief overview of accomplishments:
|
||||
- What shipped this period
|
||||
- Milestones achieved
|
||||
- Key metrics movement
|
||||
|
||||
Keep to 3-5 bullet points maximum.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Metrics Dashboard
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Metrics**
|
||||
| Metric | Current | Target | Trend | Status |
|
||||

||||
Include 3-5 most important metrics only.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Risks & Blockers
|
||||
|
||||
**High Priority Issues:**
|
||||
- **Issue**: Brief description
|
||||
- **Impact**: What's at stake
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: What you're doing about it
|
||||
- **Help Needed**: What stakeholders can do (if applicable)
|
||||
|
||||
Only include issues that matter at executive level.
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Upcoming Milestones
|
||||
|
||||
**Next 30 Days:**
|
||||
- Milestone (expected date)
|
||||
- Milestone (expected date)

- **Decision**: Clear description
|
||||
- **Options**: 2-3 options with pros/cons
|
||||
- **Recommendation**: What you recommend and why
|
||||
- **Timeline**: When decision is needed
|
||||
|
||||
## Writing Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
**Tone**: Professional, concise, action-oriented
|
||||
**Length**: Keep under 1 page (or 2 minutes reading time)
|
||||
**Frequency**: Weekly for active projects, bi-weekly for maintenance
|
||||
|
||||
**Executive Communication Principles:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Lead with conclusions, not process**
|
||||
- ❌ "We ran 5 experiments this week and analyzed the data..."
|
||||
- ✅ "Conversion rate increased 15% from optimization work"
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Focus on impact, not activities**
|
||||
- ❌ "Held 12 customer interviews"
|
||||
- ✅ "Identified #1 barrier to adoption (complexity of setup)"
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Make problems visible early**
|
||||
- Don't sugarcoat risks
|
||||
- Propose solutions, not just problems
|
||||
- Be specific about help needed
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Use data to tell story**
|
||||
- Quantify whenever possible
|
||||
- Show trends, not just snapshots
|
||||
- Connect metrics to business outcomes
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Make it scannable**
|
||||
- Use headers and bullet points
|
||||
- Bold key information
|
||||
- Use visual indicators (🟢🟡🔴, ↑→↓)
|
||||
|
||||
## Status Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
**🟢 On Track**: Meeting all targets, no significant risks
|
||||
**🟡 At Risk**: Potential issues that could impact delivery
|
||||
**🔴 Blocked**: Critical issues preventing progress, needs intervention
|
||||
|
||||

# Product Update: Customer Onboarding Redesign
|
||||
**Week of Jan 20, 2026**
|
||||
|
||||
## BLUF
|
||||
**Status**: 🟡 At Risk
|
||||
**Key Takeaway**: New onboarding flow is performing well in tests (+35% completion), but launch delayed one week due to integration issues with billing system.
|
||||
**Action Needed**: Decision needed on whether to launch onboarding separately or wait for billing integration fix.
|
||||
|
||||
## Progress Summary
|
||||
- Completed user testing with 24 participants (94% positive feedback)
|
||||
- Implemented first-time user experience improvements
|
||||
- Resolved 12 of 15 bugs identified in QA
|
||||
- Engineering allocated resources to billing integration fix
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Metrics
|
||||
| Metric | Current | Target | Trend | Status |
|
||||
|--------|---------|--------|-------|--------|
|
||||
| Onboarding Completion | 45% | 60% | → | 🟡 |
|
||||
| Time to First Value | 4.2 min | 3.0 min | ↓ | 🟢 |
|
||||
| Setup Support Tickets | 45/week | <30/week | ↓ | 🟢 |
|
||||
| User Activation Rate | 52% | 65% | → | 🟡 |
|
||||
|
||||
## Risks & Blockers
|
||||
|
||||
**HIGH: Billing System Integration Delay**
|
||||
- **Impact**: Prevents users from completing onboarding flow; delays launch by 1-2 weeks
|
||||
- **Root Cause**: API deprecation by payment processor, requires code rewrite
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: Engineering team reallocated resources, fix ETA Feb 3
|
||||
- **Decision Needed**: Launch onboarding without payment integration or wait for fix? (See below)
|
||||
|
||||
**MEDIUM: Mobile Testing Coverage**
|
||||
- **Impact**: Some edge cases on older Android devices not tested
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: Partnering with QA to expand test matrix; running beta with internal users on diverse devices
|
||||
|
||||
## Upcoming Milestones
|
||||
|
||||
**Next 30 Days:**
|
||||
- Resolve billing integration (Feb 3)
|
||||
- Launch onboarding redesign (Feb 5 or Feb 12 depending on decision)
|
||||
- Begin measuring impact on conversion (Feb 12)
|
||||
|
||||
**Next 90 Days:**
|
||||
- Iterate based on production data (March)
|
||||
- Extend to mobile app (April)
|
||||
- Launch advanced features (May)
|
||||
|
||||
## Decision Needed
|
||||
|
||||
**Should we launch onboarding separately from billing integration?**
|
||||
|
||||
**Option A: Launch Now (Recommended)**
|
||||
- Pros: Get 35% completion rate improvement to users immediately, gather production data, maintain momentum
|
||||
- Cons: Users need to complete payment in old flow, slightly disjointed experience
|
||||
- Timeline: Launch Feb 5
|
||||
|
||||
**Option B: Wait for Billing Fix**
|
||||
- Pros: Fully integrated experience from day one, no technical debt
|
||||
- Cons: Delays benefits by 2 weeks, Q1 metric targets at risk, team momentum lost
|
||||
- Timeline: Launch Feb 12
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation**: Option A. The onboarding improvements are valuable independently, and the old payment flow works fine. Waiting risks missing Q1 targets and delays validated improvements from reaching users.
|
||||
|
||||
**Timeline**: Need decision by Jan 22 for Feb 5 launch.

|
||||
- Minimize technical details
|
||||
|
||||
### For Product/Engineering Leadership
|
||||
- Include technical context
|
||||
- Show sprint/milestone progress
|
||||
- Discuss architecture implications
|
||||
- Reference technical debt
|
||||
|
||||
### For Cross-Functional Teams
|
||||
- Balance technical and business context
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Quality Checks
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Update leads with BLUF — status, key takeaway, and action needed before any detail
|
||||
- [ ] Every metric has a target comparison (not just a raw number)
|
||||
- [ ] Every risk has a mitigation and a "help needed" flag if stakeholder action is required
|
||||
- [ ] Decisions needed have specific options and a clear recommendation
|
||||
- [ ] Total length is under 1 page / 2 minutes reading time
|
||||
|
||||
## Anti-Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Do not bury the status assessment at the bottom — BLUF means the most important information comes first
|
||||
- [ ] Do not report metrics without a target or prior-period comparison — raw numbers without context are not useful
|
||||
- [ ] Do not list risks without mitigation actions and clear flags for stakeholder help needed
|
||||
- [ ] Do not write decisions needed as questions without providing a clear recommendation — executives need options, not open-ended questions
|
||||
- [ ] Do not allow the update to exceed one page — if it requires more, the message needs editing, not expanding

## Analysis Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
**When synthesizing interviews:**
|
||||
- Look for patterns across multiple participants
|
||||
- Note both what users say AND what they do
|
||||
- Pay attention to emotional reactions
|
||||
- Identify jobs-to-be-done, not just feature requests
|
||||
|
||||
**When analyzing quotes:**
|
||||
- Use verbatim quotes in "quotation marks"
|
||||
- Attribute quotes: [Participant ID, Role, Context]
|
||||
- Select quotes that illustrate patterns, not outliers
|
||||
- Include both positive and negative feedback
|
||||
|
||||
**When identifying themes:**
|
||||
- Use descriptive names, not generic labels
|
||||
- Provide evidence for each theme
|
||||
- Quantify when possible ("7 out of 10 users...")
|
||||
- Connect themes to business objectives
|
||||
|
||||
## Quality Checks
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Themes identify patterns across multiple participants, not individual responses
|
||||
- [ ] Insights connect to specific product decisions, not just observations
|
||||
- [ ] Each claim includes supporting evidence (quotes, counts, or examples)
|
||||
- [ ] Observations and interpretations are clearly separated
|
||||
- [ ] Findings are prioritised by impact, not just listed
|
||||
|
||||
## Anti-Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Do not list every individual comment — synthesis must identify patterns across participants
|
||||
- [ ] Do not make interpretive leaps without supporting evidence from the data
|
||||
- [ ] Do not focus on feature requests before understanding the underlying problem — always identify the job-to-be-done first
|
||||
- [ ] Do not ignore contradictory data — conflicting findings must be surfaced and noted
|
||||
- [ ] Do not present results without quantifying prevalence — state how many participants held each view
|
||||
|
||||
## Example Theme
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
**Theme: Information Overload During Onboarding**
|
||||
|
||||
**Description**: Users consistently expressed feeling overwhelmed by the amount of information presented during initial setup, leading to incomplete onboarding and delayed time-to-value.
|
||||
|
||||
**Prevalence**: 9 out of 12 participants mentioned this issue unprompted
|
||||
|
||||
**Supporting Quotes**:
|
||||
- "I just wanted to get started, but it felt like I needed to read a manual first" [P3, Marketing Manager]
|
||||
- "By the third screen of instructions, I started clicking 'Next' without reading" [P7, Sales Rep]
|
||||
- "I wish there was a 'quick start' option for people like me who just want to try it" [P11, Product Designer]
|
||||
|
||||
**Implication**: Our current onboarding flow prioritizes completeness over engagement. We should consider a progressive disclosure approach where users can start using the product quickly and learn advanced features contextually.
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommended Action**:
|
||||
- Design a "Quick Start" path that gets users to first value in <3 minutes
|
||||
- Move advanced configuration to contextual help within the app
|
||||
- Test with 5-10 new users before full rollout
|
||||
- Expected impact: +20-30% activation rate improvement
|
||||
