Conversations from the target group's everyday life make patterns, tensions, and open questions solidly visible.Helps clarify observations, needs, and patterns in concrete terms. It groups observations into patterns, questions, and decisions. The result is captured as a HEART-GSM table and dashboard.The Test Card turns a critical assumption into a testable claim and specifies in advance which result counts as success.When many hypotheses compete for attention, it brings order to their learning sequence and importance. It separates problem, assumption, solution, and evidence. The result is captured as a prioritization canvas and a hypothesis backlog.
