Product roadmap
Now / Next / Later — and the strategic narrative tying them together.
Themes
What we're betting on this half. 2-4 themes max. Each theme:
- Theme name — one-line description. Why now, what we expect to learn, what success looks like.
Now
Use the Now surface. Active work. Columns: feature, theme, owner, target ship date, status.
Next
Use the Next surface. Spec'd, ready when capacity opens.
Later
Use the Later surface. Validated as worth doing eventually but not yet. Re-evaluate quarterly.
Cadence
- Weekly: review Now table, surface blockers
- Bi-weekly: pull from Next into Now as items ship
- Quarterly: re-prioritize Later, update Themes
