SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

User research is essential but time‑consuming to design, execute, and analyze; teams often lack structured guides and deliverables, leading to incomplete insights.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Research method overview: tables of suitable methods, sample sizes, and timelines.
  • Interview guide template: a structured agenda to run effective user interviews.
  • Analysis frameworks: affinity mapping, impact/effort matrix, journey mapping, and jobs‑to‑be‑done.
  • Deliverable generation: ready‑to‑use research plan, interview guide, synthesis report, and highlight reel.
  • Use case: a product manager quickly creates a full research plan and final report for a new feature launch.
