What problem does it solve?
Creative user personas are essential for guiding design decisions, but generating diverse, evidence-based personas can be conversational and time-consuming. This skill provides a structured, open-ended workflow to elicit, cluster, and refine user personas during research through design, turning insights into actionable archetypes.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Phase-based conversational workflow (Align on Purpose, Share Evidence, Cluster and Name Patterns, Construct Persona Hypotheses, Stress-Test with Design Scenarios, Make Assumptions Explicit, Reflect and Reposition)
- Evidence-based persona generation that surfaces constraints, tensions, and design implications
- Reusable reference materials (examples) to anchor hypotheses and support living artifacts
Quick Start
Start a guided persona discovery session to elicit 2–4 candidate personas for a given research brief and document core goals, behaviors, constraints, and design implications.
