Align your product trio. Clear the system. Spot what’s missing.
This template helps product teams, especially PdMs, designers, and developers build a shared understanding of the product structure.
Not just the roadmap or backlog, but the actual system: what’s at the core, what’s experimental, what’s orbiting.
Use it to:
Map core modules, features, experiments, and integrations
Clarify team roles and ownership
Surface unknowns, misalignments, and dependencies early
Engage quieter team members through structured collaboration
How to use
Start with the Core: fill in the key systems or modules at the center.
Expand to the Orbits: place features, hypotheses, and external connections in layers around the core.
Use the sticky notes inside each planet to note owners, questions, or status.
Review together: async or live — and update as the product evolves.
Bonus: there’s a team roles section to clarify contributions from PM, design, and dev.
