Have you ever handed off a feature request with barely any detail and expected the developer to just figure it out?
In the latest episode of the No Compromises podcast, we discuss why writing clear requirements is one of the most valuable things a business can do before development starts.
We make the case that even imperfect requirements beat none at all because they determine where the discovery happens, closer to the finish line rather than somewhere in the middle of the country.
We also cover why letting AI write your requirements for you is a trap, and how AI can help you review and cross-check requirements instead. And why the more detail you put in upfront, the less money you spend on surprises later.
