What it does

16 evidence-first PM skills, each shipped with a worked example. Strongest on the areas the other catalogue PM packages don't cover deeply — roadmaps, metrics, experimentation, competitive analysis, strategy, and Shape Up scoping.

Sub-skill	Best for
user-interview	Mom Test + YC's Five Questions — unbiased user interviews
problem-validation	Score problems on frequency × intensity × willingness-to-pay
jtbd-analysis	Jobs-to-be-Done + Forces of Progress
research-synthesis	Turn interview notes into atomic insights and patterns
opportunity-mapping	Opportunity Solution Trees (Teresa Torres)
competitor-analysis	Feature matrix, positioning map, strategic gaps
product-positioning	April Dunford's Obviously Awesome framework
strategy-doc	Playing to Win + Rumelt's Strategy Kernel
feature-prioritization	RICE scoring with enablers vs blockers lens
scope-cutting	Shape Up appetite — fixed time, variable scope
bet-sizing	Shape Up pitch format + Type 1/2 decision framework
prd-writing	Evidence-first, concise, measurable PRDs
launch-plan	Launch tiers (silent / soft / big-bang) with checklists
metrics-framework	North Star + input/output tree + counter-metrics
experiment-design	Hypothesis-driven A/B tests with a sample-size plan
roadmap-planning	Now/Next/Later roadmaps — outcomes, not features
