| Criterion |  Product Discovery Solution Interview |  Architecture ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs) |  Product Discovery Learning Card |  Product Discovery Problem Interview |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | When a solution idea is already on the table, it checks how it is understood and evaluated. It looks for resonance, objections, and missing fit early in the conversation. | 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. | When the picture of the problem still needs to become solid, it asks about real situations and consequences. It separates genuine suffering from mere interest in a solution. |
