The focus of this tool is to recollect information about the business (goals, desires, and needs), users (customer journey, and user vs customer), data (north star and key metrics), technology (ecosystem, and production), and the product itself (enablers, uniqueness, and drivers).Once the information is collected, you can create a hypothesis to validate your product.

  6. The fifth column is about Enablers, drivers, and Ecosystems. Think about the difference between your product against others and how your ecosystem is going to support this product,

  7. The sixth column is about Data, uniqueness, and benchmark. What are the metrics you are measuring, what is the differentiator, and who are your competitors?
