Decisions Logged
  1. The "Find the Right Product" moment (xd-moment-find-product) is the canonical design target for Sprint 2 — it received the highest friction vote and is the moment most directly tied to reputation risk.

  2. The "Get Proof of Resolution" moment (xd-moment-proof) is the amplify opportunity to pursue in Sprint 2 — no current digital artifact exists and the need is cross-trade.

  3. Spec confirmation must work offline or with minimal connectivity — contractors are often in basements or behind walls where data signal is poor.

  1. The "Spec Confirm" initiative is Priority 1 — barcode scan to confirm spec match against the current job's requirements, delivered in-app at the product detail screen.

  2. The "Job Resolution Card" is Priority 2 — a shareable PDF artifact generated from purchase + job number, emailed to the property manager and stored in the Pro app job record.

  3. "Pro Chat Expert" (text-based spec confirmation with a live Pro associate) is Priority 3 — high impact but high effort. Pilot in 3 metro markets before full rollout.
