> RICE vs cost-of-delay vs simple-now-list: pick per team maturity and decision cadence.

**Track:** 📋 Product Management · **Domain:** Prioritization & Roadmaps · **Level:** foundation · **~25 min**

**Who this is for:** Product Managers, Product Owners, Founders, Product Analysts

## When to Use This Skill

RICE vs cost-of-delay vs simple-now-list: pick per team maturity and decision cadence.
Use it whenever a matching task appears in conversation — the agent loads these instructions on demand.

## Steps

1. Inventory current backlog candidates with owners attached
2. Early stage: rank by founder judgment + one metric; speed beats ceremony
3. Scale stage: RICE with calibrated effort from eng estimates
4. Platform investments: cost-of-delay thinking over point scores
5. Cap WIP explicitly; priorities without capacity are fiction
6. Recalibrate scores quarterly against realized outcomes

## Common Pitfalls

- Precision theater: scores to three decimals on guesses
- Framework outputs ignored when HiPPO speaks
