#rice-framework

Build data-driven product roadmap using RICE scoring methodology. RICE = Reach × Impact × Confidence ÷ Effort. Reach: number of users affected per quarter (estimate based on analytics). Impact: revenue/engagement boost (3=massive, 2=high, 1=medium, 0.5=low). Confidence: certainty in estimates (100%=high, 80%=medium, 50%=low). Effort: person-months required (development, design, QA, PM time). Example: Feature A - Reach: 2000 users, Impact: 3, Confidence: 80%, Effort: 2 months = (2000×3×0.8)÷2 = 2400. Compare scores across features. Tools: ProductPlan, Aha!, or spreadsheet. Update quarterly with new data. Include technical debt and compliance work. Communicate timeline changes with stakeholders.
