What this skill does
Product Ideation Expert Overview Structured product ideation for both new product creation and existing product enhancement. This skill combines the Product Trio approach (PM + Designer + Engineer perspectives) with Teresa Torres' Opportunity Solution Tree framework to generate, evaluate, and prioritize product ideas systematically. Core Capabilities Product Trio ideation — generate ideas from PM, Designer, and Engineer perspectives (15+ per session) Opportunity Solution Trees — map desired outcomes → opportunities → solutions for existing products New-product lenses — core value, speed to validate, differentiation, market timing, scalability Weighted prioritization — score and rank the top 5 ideas across impact, alignment, feasibility, speed, differentiation Idea documentation — riskiest-assumption and validation plan per idea, ready for handoff Supplementary techniques — SCAMPER, How Might We, Crazy 8s, Worst Possible Idea When to Use New Product Ideation -- Exploring greenfield opportunities where the focus is on core value delivery, speed to validate, and market differentiation. Existing Product Enhancement -- Identifying opportunities within a live product using the Opportunity Solution Tree to connect desired outcomes to concrete solutions. Clarify First Before ideating, confirm these inputs. If any is unknown or vague, ASK — do not assume: [ ] New vs existing product — selects the approach (new-product lenses vs Opportunity Solution Tree mapping) [ ] Target outcome or problem — the desired outcome the session is anchored to (ungrounded ideation produces random ideas, not prioritizable ones) [ ] Hard constraints — tech stack, timeline, budget limits (bound the feasibility and speed scores in prioritization) Stop rule: ask only the 2-3 that most change the output. If the user says "just draft it," proceed and list your assumptions at the top of the artifact. …
