Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured Template: A fillable persona template covering identity, bio, quotes, pains, goals, decision-making authority, influencers, and validation steps.
- Guidance & Quality Checks: Advice on authentic quotes, behavioral context, anti-patterns, and where to mark assumptions for later research.
- Examples & Provenance: Sample proto-personas and source notes to speed adoption in early-stage product scoping, stakeholder alignment, and research planning.
