Prioritization Framework

1. Scoring Criteria

For each feature, score 1-5 on:

Impact Factors:

• Revenue impact (direct/indirect)
• User satisfaction improvement
• Strategic alignment
• Competitive advantage
• Retention/engagement boost

Effort Factors:

• Development complexity
• Design requirements
• Dependencies
• Risk level
• Maintenance burden

2. Prioritization Matrix

Feature Impact Score Effort Score Priority Score Recommendation ... .../25 .../25 (Impact/Effort) P0/P1/P2/Defer

3. Detailed Analysis

For each feature:

[Feature Name]

• Summary: One-line description
• Impact Assessment: Why it matters
• Effort Assessment: What it takes
• Dependencies: What needs to happen first
• Risks: What could go wrong
• Recommendation: Build now / Later / Don't build
• If we build it: Expected outcome
• If we don't: Opportunity cost

4. Recommended Roadmap

Now (Next Sprint):

• Feature 1: Rationale
• Feature 2: Rationale

Next (Following Quarter):

• Feature 3: Rationale

Later (Future Consideration):

• Feature 4: Rationale

Not Recommended:

• Feature X: Why not

5. Trade-off Analysis

• If we choose [A] over [B], we're betting on...
• Resource allocation implications
• What we're saying "no" to

6. Decision Framework

Questions to ask before final prioritization:

1. Does this move us toward our north star metric?
2. What's the cost of delay?
3. Can we validate before building?
4. Is there a smaller version we could ship first?
