To check your product requirements document for gaps, you can audit it for internal consistency and traceability. This process identifies uncovered goals, invented features, and constraint blindspots to ensure development readiness.

PRD validation is the process of auditing a Product Requirement Document to ensure Phase 1 traceability and goal coverage. It verifies that every goal has a serving feature and metric, confirming the document is ready for epic mapping.

You can validate feature coverage by auditing the PRD to ensure all Must-priority features have supporting Phase 1 artifacts. This check confirms that every feature is backed by necessary documentation and addresses conditional pass requirements.

Yes, a consistency check can scan your PRD for hard constraints and active unverified assumptions. This identifies potential blindspots or invalidations that could disrupt the product development lifecycle.

You can generate a validation report by running an audit on your product requirements document. The report highlights findings categorized as BLOCKING, REQUIRED, or ADVISORY to indicate the severity of gaps and inconsistencies.

Automated PRD consistency checks are limited to identifying structural gaps like missing metrics, uncovered goals, and invented features. They cannot assess the strategic viability or market accuracy of the documented requirements.
