Everything on User Research

Agentic systems provide superior traceability in user research compared to human analysis, linking every PRD assumption to specific source quotes. This creates a defensible evidence base that reduces bias and improves strategic validity.

Impact: Enhances the credibility of product decisions and reduces the risk of building features based on unverified assumptions.

Manual onboarding of early users, including non-technical profiles, is a critical validation step that reveals friction points and use cases that internal dogfooding misses. This prevents building products that are only useful to power users.

Impact: Reduces churn by ensuring the product solves real problems for a broader audience, not just technical early adopters.
