What problem does it solve? Product teams often jump straight to building features without first understanding the customer problems worth solving. This Skill structures product discovery using Teresa Torres' Opportunity Solution Tree framework, connecting a measurable business outcome to customer opportunities, candidate solutions, and validation experiments. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Outcome Definition: Articulates a single, measurable desired outcome at the top of the tree, aligned with OKRs or product strategy. - Opportunity Mapping & Prioritization: Extracts 3-7 customer needs from research data, frames them from the customer's perspective, and ranks them using Opportunity Score (Importance x (1 - Satisfaction)). - Solution & Experiment Design: Generates multiple solutions per opportunity from PM, Designer, and Engineer perspectives, then defines fast experiments with hypothesis, method, metric, and success threshold. - Use Case: A product manager with interview notes and a retention goal can produce a full hierarchical OST showing which customer pains to target, which solutions to consider, and which experiments to run first. ## Quick Start Build an Opportunity Solution Tree from my customer interview notes with the desired outcome of increasing 7-day retention to 40 percent.
