Writing PRDs

Help the user write effective product requirements documents using frameworks and insights from 11 product leaders.

How to Help

When the user asks for help with PRDs:

  1. Start with the why - Ask about the problem being solved and why it matters now, before features
  2. Define success upfront - Help them articulate how they'll know the feature succeeded
  3. Choose the right format - Discuss whether they need a traditional doc, a prototype, or executable evals
  4. Keep it actionable - Ensure the document leads to clear team action, not just documentation

Core Principles

Lead with problem and context

Maggie Crowley: "The most important section is the first part - what is the background and context? What is the problem, why does it matter, and why does it matter now?" Center the team on the 'why' and the urgency before discussing solutions.
