Core Concepts

Understand the fundamental concepts and terminology used in AI Product Manager.

Projects

A project is the container for all your product planning work. Each project represents a single product, feature, or initiative.

Example: "Mobile App Redesign", "New Payment System", or "AI Integration Feature"

Projects contain your PRD, architecture design, roadmap, and generated tasks.

Product Requirement Document (PRD)

A PRD is a comprehensive document that defines what your product does, who uses it, and how it solves problems.

Key Sections

  • Problem Statement: What problem does your product solve?
  • Target Audience: Who are your primary users?
  • Features: What are the main capabilities?
  • User Stories: How users interact with your product
  • Acceptance Criteria: How to validate feature completion

System Architecture

System architecture describes the technical structure of your product, including components, data flow, and technology choices.

Includes

  • High-level system diagrams
  • Technology stack recommendations
  • Database schema overview
  • Integration points with external systems
  • Scalability considerations

Roadmap

A roadmap is a time-phased plan that shows when features will be built and released.

Typical Phases

  • MVP Phase: Core features needed for launch
  • Phase 2: Secondary features for market expansion
  • Future Phase: Long-term vision and enhancements

Tasks

Tasks are actionable items for your development team, broken down from the features in your PRD and roadmap.

Task Properties

  • Title: Clear, descriptive name
  • Description: Detailed technical requirements
  • Story Points: Effort estimation
  • Dependencies: Related tasks
  • Acceptance Criteria: How to verify completion

Versions and History

Each time you generate or update your project, a new version is created. You can track changes over time and revert if needed.

Version History: Complete record of all changes to your project
