Product Discovery interactive guide
The assignment
Build an interactive guide that teaches YOU Product Discovery.
✳What Sonali shipped
A deployed, no-login web app organized into learning modules with lessons, quizzes, and progress tracking. Content is structured around the discovery risk categories of value, usability, feasibility, and viability, and includes an interactive RICE calculator and an Assumptions Grid tool that learners can use directly in the browser.
✳Our read on this build
Sonali shipped a deployed web app you can open. Parts of it sit behind a sign-in, so this read leans on what is public plus Sonali's own description.
What it demonstrates
- There is something here to do rather than read: quizzes and interactive modules put the learner in the driver's seat.
- The curriculum names real discovery craft — RICE and riskiest-assumption testing — which is the difference between teaching discovery and describing it.
- It also tries to be about you rather than about the subject: a saved account and progress tracking.
Take this awayCopy the shape, not the syllabus. The decision-forcing moment is what makes discovery stick — the content is the easy half.
✳Why this quest matters
Discovery isn't a chapter you read — it's a muscle. The strongest builds here force a decision out of the learner, because the fastest way to internalise discovery vs. delivery is to practise the judgment call, not memorise the definition.
✳What separated the strongest builds
The learner has to make a call
The builds that landed put a decision in front of you — a scenario, a branching choice, feedback on your answer. The ones that didn't were articles with a nav bar.
Discovery vocabulary that holds up
Mom Test interviews, opportunity trees, riskiest-assumption tests, small prototypes shown to real users — the framing that separates discovery from delivery.
It teaches you, specifically
Your product as the worked example, your notes kept, your progress tracked. The brief said teaches YOU — and the generic explainers all read interchangeably.
No numeric scores are published here. These pages are written reads of what each builder shipped — the build is the point, not a mark out of a hundred.
