SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? SaaS founders and builders routinely overbuild their first version, stuffing v1 with features nobody asked for. This Skill forces disciplined scoping: one core user, one problem, the smallest solution that delivers real value, and an explicit list of what to defer. ## Core Features & Use Cases - MVP Scoping: Narrows an idea to a single core user, one problem statement, and the core value the product must deliver. - Feature Cutting: Produces a minimal feature set around one core loop plus an explicit "not now" list of deferred features. - Risk Identification: Surfaces the single riskiest assumption and how the MVP tests it. - Use Case: A solo founder with a broad expense-tracking idea uses this Skill to cut the plan down to "upload receipt, auto-extract amount, list view" while deferring multi-user support, reports, and integrations. ## Quick Start Help me turn my SaaS idea into a minimal MVP by defining the core user, the one problem, the smallest feature set, and what to leave out.

FAQPage Schema
How do I decide what features to include in an MVP?▼

Define the single core value the user must get, then include only the features forming one core loop that delivers it, such as sign in, do the one thing, get the result. Everything else goes on an explicit not-now list.

How do I validate a SaaS idea before building it?▼

State the problem in one sentence, name the single user who feels the pain most, and identify the riskiest assumption such as whether users will pay. Then scope the MVP so it directly tests that assumption.

What should I do when my MVP idea targets everyone?▼

Pick the sharpest segment that feels the pain most strongly and build the MVP only for them. Broadening to additional user segments should happen after the core value is validated.

How do I scope an MVP for a two-sided marketplace?▼

Seed one side of the marketplace first rather than building both sides at full strength. Validate demand on the constrained side before investing in the full marketplace mechanics.

When is an MVP still too big and needs more cutting?▼

If the plan cannot be built within your time and resource constraints, or includes features outside the single core loop, cut again. Regulated domains can be scoped to a non-regulated slice or a manual-in-the-loop version.
