Vision & Strategy: AI Skill for Product Management
Vision & Strategy is an AI skill that writes visions that can reject a feature and strategies that make real trade-offs: one segment, one differentiation path, and an explicit won't-do list.

What this skill does
Helps an AI assistant write a product vision and strategy that guide decisions, not a buzzword poster that justifies anything.
- Keeps vision, strategy, roadmap, and mission distinct and ladders product up to company.
- Writes user-centric, simple, future-facing visions with a 3 to 5 year horizon.
- Bans empty superlatives and applies the decision-filter test: a vision must reject features.
- Frames strategy as interconnected choices: where to play, how to win, what not to do.
- Picks one primary segment; "everyone" means no one.
- Chooses a differentiation path competitors can't or won't copy.
- Holds focus areas to 3 to 5 and ties each to an outcome and metric.
- Sets the stability rule: stubborn on vision, flexible on strategy.
When to use it
Use it when you need an AI assistant to:
- write or critique a product vision statement;
- define a product strategy with real trade-offs;
- separate vision from strategy from roadmap;
- ladder a product vision up to the company vision;
- pick a target segment and differentiation path;
- decide between a vision pivot and a discovery pivot.
Decisions this skill helps you make
| Decision | Options |
|---|---|
| Strategy framework | Playing to Win, Porter's, Blue Ocean, Kano, or Three Horizons: pick the 1 or 2 that answer the question |
| Vision format | Written statement first; story, video, or visiontype adapted to the audience |
| Statement form | Draft with the template for completeness, then cut to the most memorable phrasing |
| Portfolio laddering | Vision near-equals company vision for one product; explicit boundaries for many |
| B2B vs. B2C emphasis | Multi-stakeholder value and longer cycles, or individual buyers and network effects |
| Inputs by stage | Market research and interviews for new products; usage data and feedback for existing ones |
| Depth | A short version teams remember plus a detailed version with reasoning |
