SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Product teams struggle to decide which features to build first and which are merely table stakes versus differentiators. This Skill applies the Kano Model methodology (Kano et al., 1984) to classify features into Must-be, Performance, Attractive, Indifferent, and Reverse categories using functional/dysfunctional survey question pairs, then computes Customer Satisfaction (Better/Worse) coefficients to produce a priority matrix. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Survey Design: Generates ready-to-administer Kano questionnaires with functional/dysfunctional question pairs and the standardized 5-point response scale. - Response Classification: Maps survey answers through the canonical 5x5 evaluation table, computes Better/Worse CS coefficients, and builds a 4-quadrant priority matrix. - Confidence Calibration: Adjusts classification confidence by sample size (5-8 respondents = directional/MEDIUM; 20+ = statistical/HIGH per Berger et al., 1993) and flags split classifications for domain expert resolution. - Use Case: You have a backlog of 12 dashboard features and survey responses from 25 users. Invoke the skill to classify each feature, rank Must-be gaps for immediate implementation, and identify Attractive delighters for differentiation. ## Quick Start Ask the ux-orchestrator to classify your feature backlog with Kano analysis by providing a feature list and, optionally, completed survey response data.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prioritize product features with the Kano model?

Provide a feature list and survey responses collected with functional/dysfunctional question pairs. The skill classifies each feature via the 5x5 evaluation table, computes Better/Worse CS coefficients, and produces a priority matrix ranking Must-be features first, then Performance, Attractive, and Indifferent.

How many respondents do I need for a Kano survey?

Berger et al. (1993) recommend at least 20 respondents for statistically reliable classification. With 5-8 respondents the skill produces directional results labeled MEDIUM confidence, and fewer than 5 are flagged as anecdotal and not suitable for design decisions.

Can I use Kano analysis without existing survey data?

Yes. When no survey responses are provided, the skill enters survey design mode and generates a complete Kano questionnaire with functional/dysfunctional question pairs, the standardized 5-point scale, and administration guidance for your team to distribute.

What are Better and Worse CS coefficients in Kano analysis?

Better = (A+O)/(A+O+M+I) measures satisfaction potential when a feature is present; Worse = -(O+M)/(A+O+M+I) measures dissatisfaction risk when absent. Reverse and Questionable responses are excluded from the calculation per Berger et al. (1993).

What happens when a Kano feature classification is split?

When no category exceeds 50% of responses, the feature is flagged as a split classification with the full distribution breakdown. The skill adds a domain expert resolution prompt presenting the top two competing categories, since resolution requires business context the AI cannot supply.

When should I not use the Kano model for UX work?

Do not use it for usability evaluation of existing interfaces, accessibility auditing, ongoing UX health metrics, or open-ended user motivation research. Kano requires a defined feature list; use JTBD or heuristic evaluation skills for those other scenarios.
