Heard in 2 episodes across 1 show since Jun 2026

A product requirements document (PRD) is a foundational document that outlines all the requirements and capabilities of a specific product. It is written to clearly communicate what the product should do, while generally avoiding defining how the product will do it. This allows designers and engineers to leverage their expertise to build the optimal solution.

  2. One-page PRDs help clarify ambiguous features’ goals, use cases, and failure modes.

    “for features that are particularly ambiguous, it does help to write out just a one pager on what the goals are, what the delightful use cases are, what the failure modes currently are that we need to fix.”
