PRDs and tickets hide dependencies
A product spec can look complete while hiding unresolved questions, missing states, risky assumptions, and dependencies between teams. Linear docs are good for detail; they are less good at showing how the details affect one another.
A visual map of the product logic
DeeplyClear maps requirements, decisions, risks, flows, and open questions so the team can inspect the shape of the work before building. The goal is not to replace the spec. It is to make the spec easier to reason about.
Product use cases
Use it when the product idea needs a shared mental model before execution.
- Feature planning
- Spec review
- Architecture discussion
- Stakeholder alignment
- Risk review
Clarity Tours for decisions
A Clarity Tour lets a PM, founder, or engineer walk others through why the requirements exist, how the flow works, where the risks sit, and what still needs a decision.
Workflow
A simple workflow for getting the idea into shape
- 1
Start with the product material
Use a PRD, ticket set, brainstorm, prompt, or rough feature outline.
- 2
Map the building blocks
Separate users, goals, flows, requirements, dependencies, risks, and questions.
- 3
Review the relationships
Look for hidden assumptions, missing links, and decisions that block implementation.
- 4
Create a Clarity Tour
Explain the product logic in a sequence stakeholders can follow.
- 5
Share before build
Use the map to align the team before requirements turn into scattered implementation work.
FAQ
Common questions
Can DeeplyClear replace a PRD?
Usually, it works best alongside a PRD. The PRD stores detail; the map exposes structure, dependencies, decisions, risks, and open questions.
Who should use product requirements mapping?
PMs, founders, engineers, designers, and product teams can use it when a feature or system has enough complexity that a linear spec alone is hard to reason about.
How does a Clarity Tour help product teams?
A Clarity Tour turns the map into a guided explanation. It helps stakeholders follow the reasoning behind requirements, flows, tradeoffs, and unresolved decisions.
What should I map before building?
Map users, goals, core flows, requirements, dependencies, risks, constraints, decisions, and open questions. Those categories make hidden complexity easier to discuss.
