The Product discovery sprint template turns a finite product-design outcome into a visible path through Frame, Research, and Decide. It gives a multidisciplinary team a shared sequence rather than a collection of disconnected workshops or tickets. The schedule connects Frame product opportunity, Plan research sessions, and Choose product direction. Milestones such as Discovery brief aligned, Evidence synthesized, and Discovery decision recorded make the evidence or approval required for the next handoff easy to find. After creating the project, replace relative days with real dates, assign accountable owners, and add internal details only where they belong. The public starter deliberately excludes Participant contact details and Raw research recordings. Included schedule ## 11 rows, 5 links, already sequenced.
