01 / Who it's for

Is this you?

A good fit if

  • Product and business teams with an idea that needs shape before funding
  • Programmes about to start build without a shared picture of the problem
  • Leaders who want evidence from real users, quickly

Probably not if

  • The direction is already decided and funded. Go straight to delivery with a contract Scrum Master or BA. See how
  • Nobody who can make the call can give it a week. The day-3 decision needs them in the room.

05 / Questions

Before you ask

Who needs to be in the room?

A decision-maker for the day 3 decision, plus four to six people who know the problem, the customer and the technology.

Can it run remotely?

Yes. It runs remotely on Miro or FigJam, in short daily blocks.

Do we need users ready?

We help you recruit five users for day 5. Booking them early is the one hard dependency.

What happens after?

Most teams move into Requirements Rescue or straight into delivery with a clear outline backlog.
