ChatPRD’s Post

The past 2 weeks, I've been testing out different ways to draft a PRD. By far, the fastest is ChatPRD: (This is not a sponsored post) OUR OPTIONS When we PMs walk into a company, we have 1 of 2 situations: 1. We're handed this PRD template the company has 2. It's a free-for-all with no PRD template     If there's a template, it takes roughly an hour and a half to get a first draft of a feature you have begun aligned on the problem for. If there's no template, I found it takes even longer. Around 2 hours of work. ENTER LLMS It's incredibly difficult to actually find those time blocks without working late nights. So, my latest practice had been to use a tool like GPT-4o with a mega-prompt. And this works pretty well. But there's so much editing you have to do. If you're really good, though, you can get a draft out in something like 45 minutes. So I was genuinely surprised when I tried ChatPRD. The reason is: its PRD's don't need that much editing!. It does a really good job of sounding like a PM. That's always the major challenges with LLMs, but ChatPRD is built around it. It makes sense, if you think about it. LLMs are made for generalized use cases. With a GPT atop the LLM, 3x CPO Claire Vo has exported her brain into the product. ENTER THE COLLAB With ChatPRD, I've found you can actually draft your PRD in ~30 minutes. But to make sure everyone can get to that level, I reached out to the team behind ChatPRD to write the ultimate guide. I tested all the different ways to use it, and also worked with the awesome Alisa Haman, Claire's partner in crime, to add my PRD template to ChatPRD. So, it's just one click and a few prompts to get to an Aakash-inspired draft. Check out the full guide here: https://lnkd.in/e6nsDWKt LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK I think it's worth a try for any PM or product leader facing a blank page or template and ready to jump into editing faster. 𝗔𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝘀𝘁: it gives you an idea of what an LLM would say—so you can do better. 𝗔𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁: it could cut your time to a working draft by 75%. Share your honest opinion in the comments.
