Deliver User Stories

Test big ideas in just 5 days. Apply Google Ventures' proven methodology to go from problem to validated prototype without months of development. Use when: **New product concepts** that need validation before building; **Big feature decisions** with significant investment required; **Stuck teams** needing to break through analysis paralysis; **Startup pivots** when direction is uncertain; **High-risk bets** where failure is expensive

Create a user story map that lays out activities, steps, tasks, and release slices. Use when planning a workflow, backlog, or MVP around the user journey.

Specifies requirements for an analytics dashboard including metrics, visualizations, filters, and data sources. Use when requesting dashboards from data teams, defining KPI tracking, or documenting reporting needs.

Create user stories following the 3 C's (Card, Conversation, Confirmation) and INVEST criteria with descriptions, design links, and acceptance criteria. Use when writing user stories, breaking down features into backlog items, or defining acceptance criteria.

Plan a sprint with capacity estimation, story selection, dependency mapping, and risk identification. Use when preparing for sprint planning, estimating team capacity, selecting stories, or balancing sprint scope against velocity.

Escape the build trap and endless backlogs. Use Basecamp's methodology to ship meaningful work in 6-week cycles with fixed time, variable scope. Use when: **Product planning** to replace endless backlogs; **Feature development** with clear time boundaries; **Team autonomy** when you want self-directed teams; **Scope management** when projects tend to balloon; **Startup development** with limited resources
