Agile Product Roadmap
Works best for:
Roadmap, Planning, Mapping
The Agile Product Roadmap template enables teams to visualize and communicate the strategic direction of their product development in an agile environment. It allows for flexibility and adaptation to changing requirements while providing a clear overview of priorities and timelines. By incorporating feedback loops and iterative planning, teams can ensure alignment with stakeholder expectations and deliver value incrementally.
Jobs to be Done template
Works best for:
Ideation, Design Thinking, Brainstorming
It’s all about a job done right — customers “hire” a product or service to do a “job,” and if it's not done right, the customer will find someone to do it better. Built on that simple premise, the Jobs To Be Done (JTBD) framework helps entrepreneurs, start-ups, and business managers define who their customer is and see unmet needs in the market. A standard job story lets you see things from your customers’ perspective by telling their story with a “When I…I Want To…So That I …” story structure.
Product Vision Statement
Works best for:
Product Management, Planning
The Product Vision Statement template helps product teams articulate clear and inspiring visions for product development. By defining long-term goals, market aspirations, and customer value propositions, this template aligns teams around a shared vision for success. With sections for outlining strategic objectives, guiding principles, and success metrics, it provides clarity and direction for product development efforts. This template serves as a compass for product teams, guiding them towards meaningful outcomes and driving innovation and growth.
