Commodification of Design

The process where design services and outputs become standardized and interchangeable, often leading to competition based primarily on price rather than quality or creativity. Important for understanding market trends and pressures that reduce the perceived value and uniqueness of design work, impacting pricing and differentiation strategies.

ModelOps

ModelOps (Model Operations) is a set of practices for deploying, monitoring, and maintaining machine learning models in production environments. Crucial for ensuring the reliability, scalability, and performance of AI systems throughout their lifecycle, bridging the gap between model development and operational implementation.

LTV

Lifetime Value (LTV) is a metric that estimates the total revenue a business can expect from a single customer account throughout their relationship. Crucial for informing customer acquisition strategies, retention efforts, and overall business planning by providing insights into long-term customer profitability.

WSJF

The risk that the product being developed will not deliver sufficient value to the users, meaning it won't meet their needs or solve their problems. Critical for ensuring the product will be desirable and valuable to the users, which is essential for its success.

Exit Modal

A pop-up dialog that appears when a user attempts to leave a page or application, which can be used to prevent loss of progress or data, or to confirm user intent.
