Let me review your roadmap for you. It looks like you have some good features planned. You'll want to make sure your roadmap aligns with what customers actually need. PMF is important—you should look at retention to understand if you have product-market fit. Customer feedback is valuable too. Do you have any retention data or usage metrics I could look at? That would help me give you better feedback on whether these features make sense.
Afterwith Cpo Review
ROADMAP VALIDATION: JTBD + PMF Audit

CUSTOMER JOBS (Not features)
Extract from support tickets, interviews, churn surveys:
Job 1: "I need to close deals faster without losing data in the handoff between sales and CS"
  → Roadmap alignment: Feature X (CRM integration) ✓ addresses this directly
  → Test: 80% of churned customers mention handoff friction? If <20%, this job is invented

Job 2: "I want to see trends over 6-month windows to predict churn before it happens"
  → Roadmap alignment: Feature Y (analytics dashboard) partially addresses (3-month window only)
  → Gap: Annual trends feature not planned; misses customer job

PMF VALIDATION (Retention Curve)
Pull cohort retention from last 6 months:
• Month 0 (churn): Expect 40-50% (normal)
• Month 2: Expect >60% (PMF signal: retention inflection, users depend on product)
• Month 6: Your data shows 51% (weak PMF signal; retention flat-lining, not sticky)

Risk: Roadmap assumes PMF is proven and focuses on expansion features (job creation, automation). If Month 6 retention is 51%, you're fixing the wrong layer. You need retention fixes first.

THE TRAP: Feature Factory
Q3 roadmap has 6 new features, 2 integrations, 1 performance optimization.
None directly target retention cohorts that are leaking customers.
→ Likely outcome: Launch features, retention stays 51%, burn rate increases

PRIORITY REORDER (JTBD-driven)
BEFORE building expansion features:
1. Identify 2-3 customer jobs that predict retention (survey churned users)
2. Measure: Do retained users complete these jobs faster/easier than churned users?
3. Only if yes → dedicate 50% Q3 engineering to nailing these jobs
4. Remaining 50% → planned roadmap (expansion)

GO/NO-GO GATES
☐ Retention cohort Month 6 reaches 65% (or explain why 51% is acceptable)
☐ Top 3 churn reasons documented + roadmap items trace to each
☐ Feature validation: Test with 5 customers before building (not after)
☐ Metrics dashboard: Track retention by feature usage (not just overall cohort)

FINAL CALL: Roadmap is not validated against PMF. De-risk by validating retention first.
