- Competitive gaps
2. **Create RICE Input CSV** - Structure features with RICE parameters:
```csv
feature,reach,impact,confidence,effort
User Dashboard,500,3,0.8,5
API Rate Limiting,1000,2,0.9,3
Dark Mode,300,1,1.0,2
```
- **Reach**: Number of users affected per quarter
- **Impact**: massive(3), high(2), medium(1.5), low(1), minimal(0.5)
- **Confidence**: high(1.0), medium(0.8), low(0.5)
- **Effort**: person-months (XL=6, L=3, M=1, S=0.5, XS=0.25)
3. **Run RICE Prioritization** - Execute analysis with team capacity
```bash
python ../../product-team/skills/product-manager-toolkit/scripts/rice_prioritizer.py features.csv --capacity 20
```

- **Quick Wins**: High RICE, low effort (ship first)
- **Big Bets**: High RICE, high effort (strategic investments)
- **Fill-Ins**: Medium RICE (capacity fillers)
- **Money Pits**: Low RICE, high effort (avoid or revisit)
5. **Generate Quarterly Roadmap**:
- Q1: Top quick wins + 1-2 big bets
- Q2-Q4: Remaining prioritized features
- Buffer: 20% capacity for unknowns
6. **Stakeholder Alignment** - Present roadmap with:
- RICE scores as justification
- Trade-off decisions explained
- Capacity constraints visible
**Expected Output:** Data-driven quarterly roadmap with RICE-justified priorities and portfolio balance
**Time Estimate:** 4-6 hours for complete prioritization cycle (20-30 features)
**Example:**
```bash
# Complete prioritization workflow
