Squad

Squad is a product strategy tool that helps teams build products that meet both business and customer needs. It uses AI to help teams develop products more efficiently, ensuring everyone is aligned and working on the most important tasks. By combining business outcomes, customer feedback and analytics, Squad enables teams to build outcome-based roadmaps and get actionable insights.

Squad is designed to help product teams overcome common challenges. In the past, tools haven't been able to bridge the gap between business and customer needs, resulting in problems like building products around HiPPO (Highest Paid Person's Opinion) instead of customer needs, backlogs and bad data. Squad helps by linking desired business outcomes to internal and external feedback so teams can make data-driven decisions.

Some of the key features include:

• Outcomes-based Roadmaps: Gives teams top-down visibility so everyone is aligned and working on the most important tasks.
• Actionable Insights: AI-powered analysis of user feedback to identify trends and opportunities for improvement.
• Automated Documentation: Generates product documentation, requirements and test cases so teams don't have to do the heavy lifting.
• Integrations: Connects to analytics tools to track performance and task management tools for workflow.

Squad uses AI to extract insights from customer feedback and align them with business outcomes. It combines multiple data sources, including customer and internal feedback, and product analytics, to recommend the best approach to address opportunities. This process produces a concise solution document and breaks it down into features and stories, including BDD requirements and test cases.

Squad is designed to help teams build products that are centered on the customer while still meeting business objectives. By automating busywork and providing actionable insights, Squad empowers teams to build with purpose. Anyone who wants to build and manage software with a customer-centric mindset should consider Squad as a useful addition to their product development workflow.
