Exploration and validation interview modes

Smart Personas: Your Specification Validators

How intelligent interviews create bulletproof specifications

Why Interview Modes Matter for Specifications

Great specifications come from understanding both the messy reality of user needs and the structured requirements of implementation. Our dual-mode interview system ensures your specs capture both human complexity and technical precision.

Exploration Mode: Discover the Unknown

Uncover hidden requirements and edge cases before they become expensive problems

  • Surface blind spots: Personas reveal workarounds and frustrations you hadn't considered

  • Find edge cases: Natural conversation uncovers scenarios that break assumptions

  • Validate problem-solution fit: Ensure you're solving real pain points, not imagined ones

Impact on Specifications: Exploration interviews ensure your PRDs address real user complexity, not simplified assumptions. This leads to specifications that AI builders can implement without constant clarification.

Validation Mode: Refine for Implementation

Transform discoveries into crystal-clear requirements that AI tools understand

  • Prioritize features: Get structured feedback on what matters most

  • Clarify acceptance criteria: Define exactly what success looks like

  • Validate technical approach: Ensure your solution aligns with user mental models

Impact on Specifications: Validation interviews create the structured requirements that make your specs machine-readable. This dramatically improves accuracy when using Claude Code, v0, or other AI builders.

The Power of Smart Personas

More than profiles — they're your specification quality gatekeepers

Our AI personas aren't static profiles. They're intelligent critics who:

  • Challenge vague requirements with specific scenarios
  • Identify missing edge cases before development starts
  • Validate that your specs match user mental models
  • Ensure accessibility and usability aren't afterthoughts

Best Practice Workflow

  1. Start with Exploration Mode to understand the problem space

  2. Switch to Validation Mode to refine specific solutions

  3. Export insights directly into your specification templates
  4. Let AI builders implement with confidence, knowing specs are validated
