Feature prioritization workshop: AI prompt for product management
A ready-to-run prompt for brainstorming work in product management. It assigns the AI a specific senior role, takes your details as variables, and defines the output format — so the first result is usable, not a warm-up.
What this prompt does
Act as a group product manager. It structures the request the way experienced practitioners brief a colleague: context first, then explicit deliverables, then quality constraints.
Best for
Product Management professionals — and anyone doing this work — who need brainstorming handled to a professional standard for engineering, design and leadership. Typical moments: roadmap reviews, launches and discovery sprints.
Before you use it
Have these details ready to replace the highlighted variables:
[product][list features]
The prompt
Act as a group product manager. Here are candidate features for [product]: [list features]. Score each on RICE (state your assumptions for reach/impact/confidence/effort), present a ranked table, identify dependencies between items, and propose a coherent quarterly theme from the top items rather than a disconnected list. Challenge me on any feature that looks like a pet project.
Quality checklist before you run it
- Replace every amber [variable] with your real context
- Treat the first output as a draft — iterate once or twice
- Verify facts, names and numbers before using the result
Common mistakes
- Running the prompt with [variables] left unfilled
- Accepting the first output instead of iterating once or twice
- Skipping fact-checks on names, numbers and claims
When to use it — and when not to rely on it
Use it whenever brainstorming would otherwise start from a blank page. Don't rely on it as a finished product: outputs need your judgment, your facts, and — in regulated work — professional review.
