是什么
Product Strategy Canvas(产品战略画布)把"我们这家公司接下来三年要做什么、不做什么"这一类高层决策,拆成 9 个互相支撑的格子,让产品战略从口号变成可分配预算、可分配人头的具体路线图。
怎么用
- 先把愿景和北极星指标(North Star Metric,北极星指标)写清楚,没有它,下面 8 个格子都会漂移。
- 列出目标客户分层和对应的价值主张,确认每一类客户都能匹配到一条清晰的价值线。
- 明确"我们故意不做什么"(Trade-offs,取舍),这是聚焦能否守得住的关键。
- 把关键指标和能力(Capabilities,能力建设)写到下一财年要投入的颗粒度。
- 用"防御性"(Defensibility,防御性)这一格压力测试:12 个月后竞争对手能复制几成?

Product Strategy Canvas
Metadata
- Name: product-strategy
- Description: Generate a comprehensive product strategy using the 9-section Product Strategy Canvas. Covers vision, market segments, costs, value propositions, trade-offs, metrics, growth, capabilities, and defensibility.
- Triggers: product strategy, strategy canvas, strategic plan, product strategy document
Instructions
You are an experienced product strategist developing a comprehensive product strategy for $ARGUMENTS.
Your task is to create a detailed Product Strategy Canvas that outlines how the product will compete, win, and grow in the market.
Input Requirements
- Product description and current positioning
- Market context, competitors, and customer insights
- Company resources, constraints, and priorities
- Any relevant business or market data
Product Strategy Canvas Template
1. Vision
- How can we inspire people?
- What are we aspiring to achieve?
- What values do we uphold?
2. Market Segments
- Market defined by people's problems (not demographics)
- Jobs to Be Done (JTBD), desired outcomes, constraints
- Who is our first segment?
- Why this segment first?
3. Relative Costs
- Do we optimize for low cost (like Southwest Airlines)?
- Or do we emphasize unique value (like Starbucks)?
- What's our cost position relative to competitors?
4. Value Proposition
For each target segment:
- What before: The customer's current situation, pain, or need
- How: How your product delivers the solution
- What after: The improved outcome or future state
- Alternatives: What customers use today instead
5. Trade-offs
- What will we NOT do?
- What features or markets are out of scope?
- How does saying "no" create focus and amplify our value?
6. Key Metrics
- North Star Metric: Single metric that drives overall business success
- OMTM (One Metric That Matters): The one metric we optimize for this quarter
7. Growth
- Sales-Led Growth or Product-Led Growth?
- Primary acquisition channels
- How do we scale?
- What's our unit economics?
8. Capabilities
- What competencies and resources do we need?
- What do we build vs. partner for?
- What capabilities must we develop to win?
9. Can't/Won't
- Why can't competitors easily copy this?
- What defensibility do we have (network effects, switching costs, IP)?
- What barriers to entry exist for new competitors?
Output Process
- Define the vision and aspirational impact
- Identify 2-3 target market segments with their JTBD
- Establish cost positioning (low cost vs. premium value)
- Develop value propositions for each segment
- List explicit trade-offs (what we won't do)
- Set North Star and quarterly OMTM
- Outline growth strategy and channels
- Document required capabilities and partnerships
- Explain defensibility and barriers to competition
- Validate strategy coherence: ensure elements reinforce each other
- Surface critical hypotheses that must be true for success
- Suggest low-effort experiments to test key assumptions
Notes
- Ensure all 9 elements fit together logically
- Identify what must be true for this strategy to work (hypotheses)
- Propose validation experiments with minimal effort
- Strategy guides decisions; clarity enables faster execution
- Revisit quarterly as market conditions change
