What is a product canvas?

The Product Canvas template is a planning tool designed to help build products that have a great user experience by  focusing on feature development that answers your target user persona’s needs. The product canvas was introduced by Roman Pichler in 2012 and combines agile methodologies with lean UX principles to help validate product vision and product solutions. Product canvases bring together key pieces of information necessary to create new products:

  • With user stories and personas, storyboards, and diverse user scenarios, you can meet the needs of your target users and consumers.
  • The product’s design and functionality.
  • And the product’s contact with the user.

This collaboration tool is designed to assist your product and engineering teams in stating their ideas and assumptions, testing them, and incorporating the results into your product roadmap.

What is a product canvas used for?

The product canvas was designed to be integrated into the Lean Startup methodology, Lean UX, Business Model Generation and Scrum planning. This tool helps product managers, product owners and scrum masters validate solutions by identifying the target audience, market landscape and unique value proposition, outlining cost structures, marketing and sales funnels and key metrics to help prepare a roadmap for a new product. The product canvas template can be used in place of a traditional product backlog.
