Refine Your Idea and Define Features for a Breakthrough Prototype

Refining your idea begins with user research to uncover the "why" behind your product. Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • How to use surveys, interviews, and focus groups to gather valuable insights.

  • Tips for asking open-ended questions and avoiding bias in your research.

  • Techniques like the “Five Whys” to uncover deep user needs.

Once you’ve refined your idea, it’s time to define your product’s feature set. Using the MoSCoW Method, this blog will show you how to categorize features into "Must-Have," "Should-Have," "Could-Have," and "Won’t-Have" priorities. Learn how to balance user expectations with development realities, create a roadmap for success, and prepare for the next steps in building your prototype. Dive in to turn your vision into a market-ready product!

Freight rates increased on some routes and dropped on others, with the Drewry index rising 6% to $3,533 per container, much lower than pandemic highs but well above pre-pandemic levels, and further increases expected due to a possible port strike in 2025.
