What is Feature Prioritization?
The process of ranking candidate features by value, effort, and confidence to decide what gets built next.
Feature prioritization is the activity that consumes the most product-management time and produces the least visible output. The frameworks (RICE, ICE, MoSCoW, Kano, Weighted Shortest Job First, Value vs Effort) all serve the same purpose: make trade-offs explicit and defensible. The frameworks matter less than the discipline, pick one, score consistently, and revisit the model when it stops matching reality. Prioritization is a forcing function for strategy: if you can't rank, you don't have one.
