| Criterion |  Architecture ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs) |  Product Discovery Learning Card |  Operations Learning Review |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | ARID examines how well developers can work with a technical design. It focuses on a part of the system that can still be revised, between the architecture overview and the detailed specification. | The Learning Card connects traceable test results to a reasoned next action while keeping the limits of the insight visible. | After a project phase with mixed results, the method makes learning from the individual case reusable. It connects events, decisions, and systemic conditions into robust insights. |
Complexitydifferent | Medium | Low | Medium |
Timedifferent | 2–4 h review as a planning range; preparation and evaluation additional | 25-40 min | 1-3 h |
Participantsdifferent | Designers, developers as users, and facilitation | 1-5 | 3-10 |
Formatdifferent | Workshop + async | Workshop + async | Workshop |
Outputdifferent | Prioritized development tasks, Jointly produced code or pseudocode, Observed difficulties and open design questions, Proposed design revisions | Learning Card with evidence and next action | Learning Review Notes, System Factors, Improvement Actions |
