What is the minimum surface area needed for a prototype to get genuine user reactions?▼

The minimum surface area for a prototype focuses on creating a throwaway artifact that provokes genuine user reactions, enabling you to test viability and collect feedback from 5 users before investing in a full MVP.

How do I scope user feedback synthesis for idea validation?▼

Scope user feedback synthesis by collecting reactions from 5 users interacting with the prototype, then analyze the data to determine whether to proceed with building, pivot the concept, or redraw entirely.

Can I use a Wizard-of-Oz archetype for proof-of-concept creation?▼

Yes, you can use a Wizard-of-Oz archetype for proof-of-concept creation. It is one of the cheapest archetypes available, alongside video, concierge, and functional models, specifically chosen to facilitate learning.

What is the best way to test idea viability without writing production code?▼
