A PRD is a product requirements document that structures feature specs by defining problem statements, goals, non-goals, user stories, and acceptance criteria to align product teams. It captures success metrics, timelines, and open questions to guide delivery.

To write user stories with acceptance criteria, start from your raw feature idea and define the problem statement and goals. Then, generate specific user stories paired with clear acceptance criteria and apply MoSCoW prioritization to categorize requirements.

The best way to prioritize requirements using the MoSCoW method is to categorize your user stories and feature specs into Must-have, Should-have, Could-have, and Won't-have buckets during PRD creation, ensuring clear scope alignment for product teams.
