The Complete Guide to RICE Prioritization
Master the art of feature prioritization with this comprehensive framework
Product teams face an endless stream of feature requests, bug fixes, and improvement ideas. Without a systematic approach to prioritization, teams often fall into common traps: building features that seem exciting but don't move the needle, spending months on low-impact work, or making decisions based on whoever speaks loudest in meetings.
The RICE framework, developed by Intercom, provides a data-driven approach to cut through the noise and focus on what truly matters. By scoring features across four key dimensions, teams can make objective prioritization decisions that maximize impact while considering resource constraints.
Formula
Higher scores = higher priority
The best way to learn RICE is by doing. Start with a small set of features, gather your team, and begin scoring. You'll quickly develop intuition for the framework and see how it transforms your prioritization discussions.
- Gather 5-10 features to start
- Include diverse team members
- Set aside 1-2 hours for your first session
