Product Playbook Audit
Is your product playbook driving alignment—or just collecting dust?
You have a product process. But is it working?
Does it actually serve your team—or slow them down?
Is it strategic—or just ceremonial?
A Product Playbook Audit gives you a sharp, outsider’s lens on how your product team operates—and what’s getting in the way of real impact.
❓ Wait—What Is a Product Playbook?
A product playbook is the how behind your product decisions.
It defines how you prioritize, plan, build, validate, and ship.
It’s what connects vision to execution, and strategy to outcomes.
It’s not just a Notion doc—it’s the backbone of how your team works together.
❗ Don’t have a playbook—or not sure if you do?
You’re not alone. Many teams think they’re “doing product,” but without clear, shared practices, misalignment creeps in fast.
As part of the audit, we can help you define, document, and operationalize your playbook from scratch.
⚙️ Why Audit Your Product Playbook?
Because unchecked rituals turn into roadblocks.
Because outdated frameworks breed misalignment.
Because your team deserves clarity, not confusion.
Through this audit, we’ll uncover:
-
🔄 Where your process is breaking down—or never took root
-
🧱 What’s missing between strategy, execution, and delivery
-
🚧 Why your rituals (standups, planning, demos, etc.) aren’t producing results
-
📉 How your current tools and templates may be slowing velocity or quality
-
💡 Opportunities to realign your team and stakeholders—without a massive overhaul
🎯 What You’ll Walk Away With
This isn’t a vague “here’s what you could fix” report.
You’ll get a clear, actionable breakdown of:
-
✅ What’s working—and what’s not—in your product process
-
🧭 Strategic recommendations tailored to your stage and team structure
-
📄 Playbook templates and process upgrades that fit your goals, not generic best practices

🗺️ A plan for making your product rituals feel purposeful, not performative
