RICE Scoring System (Complete)
RICE评分系统(完整版)
Formula
计算公式
RICE Score = (Reach × Impact × Confidence) / Effort
Reach: How many users affected? (1-100+)
- 10+ = 10
- 100+ = 100
- 1000+ = 1000
Impact: Per-user impact (3, 2, 1, 0.5)
- 3 = Massive (10x improvement)
- 2 = High (significant improvement)
- 1 = Medium (noticeable improvement)
- 0.5 = Low (minor improvement)
Confidence: How confident? (0.25-1.0)
- 1.0 = High (research backed)
- 0.8 = Medium (some validation)
- 0.5 = Low (minimal validation)
- 0.25 = Very low (assumption)
Effort: Engineer-weeks needed (1-20+)RICE Score = (Reach × Impact × Confidence) / Effort

RICE置信度等级
High (1.0) - Research-backed
- Customer interviews conducted
- Data from analytics
- Customer support tickets confirming
- Clear customer demand
Medium (0.8) - Some validation
- Logical assumption
- One or two customers requesting
- Industry trends suggest it
- Similar features successful elsewhere
Low (0.5) - Minimal validation
- Educated guess
- Competitive pressure (they have it)
- Opportunity emerged
- Needs deeper validation
Very Low (0.25) - Pure assumption
- "Seems like good idea"
- No customer feedback
- No validation whatsoever
- High risk of waste
高置信度(1.0)- 有研究支撑
- 已开展客户访谈
- 有分析数据支持
- 客户支持工单确认需求
- 客户需求明确
中置信度(0.8)- 部分验证
- 逻辑合理的假设
- 1-2位客户提出需求
- 行业趋势指向该需求
- 同类功能在其他场景成功落地
低置信度(0.5)- 少量验证
- 有依据的猜测
- 竞品已推出该功能(竞争压力)
- 出现新的机会点
- 需要进一步验证
极低置信度(0.25)- 纯假设
- “看起来是个好主意”
- 无任何客户反馈
- 未做任何验证
- 资源浪费风险高

Value vs Effort Matrix
价值-投入矩阵
Low Effort High Effort
High Value QUICK WINS STRATEGIC
(Do first) (Plan carefully)
Low Value FILL-INS AVOID
(If time) (Skip)Quick Wins: High value, low effort
- Implement first for momentum
- Build confidence
- Show stakeholders progress
- Examples: Bug fixes, small features
Strategic: High value, high effort
- Long-term competitive advantage
- Requires planning and resources
- Examples: New platform, architecture
Fill-Ins: Low value, low effort
- Polish features
- Technical debt
- Do when capacity available
Avoid: Low value, high effort
- Waste of resources
- Say "no" clearly
Low Effort High Effort
High Value QUICK WINS STRATEGIC
(Do first) (Plan carefully)
Low Value FILL-INS AVOID
(If time) (Skip)快速制胜项: 高价值、低投入
- 优先落地以积累动力
- 建立团队信心

MoSCoW Method (Simpler)
MoSCoW方法(简化版)
Must Have (Non-negotiable for launch)
- Core functionality
- Without these: launch doesn't happen
- Usually 40% of work
Should Have (Important but deferrable)
- Significant value
- Could launch without but less attractive
- Usually 30% of work
Could Have (Nice to have)
- Polish, nice features
- Do if budget/time allows
- Usually 20% of work
Won't Have (Explicitly out of scope)
- Clearly deferred
- Helps stakeholders understand priorities
- Usually 10% of work
必须具备(Must Have)(上线必备,不可协商)
- 核心功能
- 缺少则无法上线
- 通常占工作量的40%
应该具备(Should Have)(重要但可延期)
- 价值显著
- 没有也能上线,但吸引力下降
- 通常占工作量的30%
可以具备(Could Have)(锦上添花)
- 功能优化、特色功能
- 预算/时间充足时再做
- 通常占工作量的20%
不会具备(Won't Have)(明确排除在当前范围外)
- 明确延期至未来版本

- 通常占工作量的10%
Kano Model (Customer Satisfaction)
卡诺模型(客户满意度导向)
Three feature categories:
Basic Factors (Threshold)
- Expected to be present
- Absence = very dissatisfied
- Presence = satisfied (not delighted)
- Example: Core app functionality
- No competitive advantage
Performance Factors (Linear)
- More = more satisfaction
- Less = less satisfaction
- Competitive advantage
- Examples: Speed, customization options
- Scales continuously
Delighters (Excitement)
- Unexpected features
- Presence = delighted
- Absence = neutral
- High competitive advantage
- Examples: Surprising UX, hidden features
Strategy: Must haves first, then performance, then delighters for differentiation
三类功能:
基础型需求(Basic Factors)(门槛项)
- 用户默认应该存在的功能
- 缺失会导致用户极度不满
- 存在仅能让用户满意(不会惊喜)
- 示例:应用核心功能
- 无竞争优势
期望型需求(Performance Factors)(线性关联)
- 功能越好,用户满意度越高
- 功能越差,用户满意度越低
- 能带来竞争优势
- 示例:速度、自定义选项
- 满意度随功能提升持续增长
兴奋型需求(Delighters)(惊喜项)
- 用户未预期的功能
- 存在会让用户惊喜
- 缺失用户也不会不满
- 高竞争优势
- 示例:超出预期的UX设计、隐藏功能
策略: 先满足基础型需求,再处理期望型需求,最后通过兴奋型需求实现差异化
