User Persona Template
Works best for:
Marketing, Desk Research, User Experience
A user persona is a tool for representing and summarizing a target audience for your product or service that you have researched or observed. Whether you’re in content marketing, product marketing, design, or sales, you operate with a target in mind. Maybe it’s your customer or prospect. Maybe it’s someone who will benefit from your product or service. Usually, it’s a whole collection of personalities and needs that intersect in interesting ways. By distilling your knowledge about a user, you create a model for the person you hope to target: this is a persona.

Idea Drafting Template
The Idea Drafting Template encourages you to tap into your innate creativity by drawing pictures to quickly generate ideas. The sketching process stimulates a cycle of creativity that supports the development of concepts. By externalizing your thoughts through sketches and seeing them visualized, you can generate variations and continue the creative process.
System Flowchart Template
The System Flowchart Template is a visual representation of the structure and organization of a concept, system, or solution. It helps teams understand how different components interact to form a functional system by focusing on the overall arrangement of elements rather than specific details. Symbolic drawings are used to illustrate the basic parts and their relationships in the diagram.
Scenario Mapping Template
Works best for:
Desk Research, Mapping, Product Management
Scenario mapping is the process of outlining all the steps a user will take to complete a task. The scenario mapping template helps you create a visual guide to what different personas are doing, thinking, and feeling in different situations. Use scenario mapping to outline an intended or ideal scenario (what should happen) as well as what currently happens. If you’re trying to outline the ideal scenario, user mapping should take place very early on in a project and can help inform user stories and the product backlog. If you’re just trying to get a better sense of what currently happens, you can do user mapping when conducting user interviews or observation.
Collaborative Prototyping Template
Rapid prototyping quickly tests concepts and solutions with low-fidelity functional models, reducing investments by identifying issues early. The Collaborative Prototyping Template generates ideas and tests them with a framework for sharing prototypes and getting feedback.
