Acceptance criteria sheet
Hand a developer or agency a story with its definition of done written down: testable expected behaviours, error cases and edge cases, each traced to a rule or design state, with the unclear terms and open questions listed for the product owner.
AI visibility audit for an online store
A store owner or marketer gets a dated audit of how the store reads to AI assistants and shopping agents, from its own saved public pages: eighteen fixed checks with evidence, a fix list in priority order, and a record of what the assistants actually said. Nothing on the store is changed.
Analysis plan
Before anyone opens the spreadsheet, the owner or manager gets a one-page plan: the question restated, the hypotheses, the fields and periods needed, and the result that would change the decision. It runs no analysis and states no finding. You own the question and the criteria.
Assumption map
For a product owner whose plan rests on beliefs nobody has tested: each belief is written down, set against the evidence you hold, ranked by what it would do to the plan, and given a cheap test to choose from. You decide what to test; no evidence is invented.
Audit evidence index
The quality lead gets an index of everything an audit has asked to see: each request linked to the document that answers it, its version and owner, the records found and the gaps. The quality owner decides what is shared; nothing is certified or sent.
Batch distribution trace
When the quality lead needs to know where one production batch went, they get a map from the batch record to every recorded shipment: quantities, transfers and repacking links, with each gap in the trace written as a question. It decides no hold and contacts nobody.
Budget-versus-actual variance commentary
Before the month's results go to management, the finance lead gets written commentary on every line that moved past the threshold: the figures, the budget owner's explanation marked confirmed or to be confirmed, a bridge from budget to actual, and the questions still open. No cause is invented.
Business continuity plan
For an owner or operations manager: the activities the business cannot stop for long, how long each can be down and how much data it can lose, what each depends on, the fallback for each, and named owners, deputies, contacts and a test date, ready for a competent reviewer and the owner's approval.
Business model assumptions review
Before you commit money to a new or revised business model, see it block by block with every claim marked evidenced or assumed, the riskiest assumptions ranked, and the cheapest test for each. You choose what to test; no projection or valuation is made.
Client campaign performance report
At the weekly or monthly reporting cutoff, the analyst gets a client report in the agency's format from the exports supplied: source figures, a drafted narrative, anomalies and discussion points. Gaps stay gaps, and every explanation is labelled a hypothesis.
Client report check log
Before a batch of client reports is released, the reporting lead gets a log, report by report, of household membership, periods, totals against the custodian statements, fee figures and missing sections, with every difference marked for correction. Nothing is released or sent.
Cloud spend variance bridge
When cloud or tooling costs move away from budget, the finance lead and the engineering manager get a bridge from budget to actual by service and cost owner, with usage beside each large move, the unallocated and shared costs, and the questions each side must answer.
Comparison claim check
A manager holding a claim such as "version B converts better" and two groups of numbers gets back the method used, the size of the difference, how uncertain it is, the assumptions checked, and plain wording for what the data does and does not support. The manager decides what to do.
Completed engagement file review
The quality partner gets a worksheet that tests finished engagement files against the firm's own checklist: each item linked to the engagement letter, workpaper or sign-off that answers it, with any open finding, and the missing evidence listed. The quality partner confirms findings and assigns remediation.
Component inventory audit
When patterns come up for review, the design-system owner gets an inventory built from the library export and its documentation: every component with its naming, token and state gaps, and the pairs that may overlap. Nothing is merged on appearance; the owner decides.
Cost of poor quality worksheet
An owner or operations lead who senses that rework, scrap and returns are costly gets one worksheet: the failure costs already on record, sorted by category, with estimates, gaps and unresolved allocations listed. The owner decides what to fix first.
Course catalog quality check
The registrar's office gets one comparison of a department's course updates against the current catalog export: codes, titles, credits, descriptions and linked components, row by row, with every conflict set out as a question for academic review. No catalog record is changed.
Course sequence and workload review
A course lead revising an outline for the next cohort gets a module map: learning goals, prerequisites, activities and the instructor's own time estimates, with crowded weeks and coverage gaps marked and every gap written as a question. The course lead decides what changes.
Creative fatigue review
When a campaign's reach or response pattern prompts a creative review, the paid media lead gets frequency and response set against the campaign's own baseline, by creative and audience, with other explanations marked and options to test.
Creative test evidence review
When a batch of ad creative is ready for review, the creative strategist and media lead get an evidence table by creative, angle, format and hook, with tentative learning and next-test options. No winner or loser is named, and thin evidence is held back.
Creator campaign performance report
When a creator campaign closes, the marketing lead gets one report built from the store's own orders: what each creator brought in and cost, every creator ranked under a metric set beforehand, and a proposed next step for each. Every number is labelled measured, supplied or estimated.
Current experience baseline
Before a redesign, the design lead gets a baseline built from the captures and page list they supply: each page read with its content and design observations, the patterns that recur, and the pages outside the evidence. The lead confirms the baseline and sets the scope.
Customer feedback themes
Each month your support lead sees what customers keep telling you: tickets, disputes, reviews and survey comments grouped into themes with counts and quotations, the three issues most worth fixing with a proposed fix and owner, and a note for customers once a fix ships. A person decides every fix.
Customer interview synthesis
Turn a stack of customer call notes into the answer to one question, in your customers’ own words. Every quotation is cited to the note it came from, every theme shows its confidence and the evidence against it, and nothing is claimed that the notes do not say.
