Discovery Debt – When your product forgets faster than it learns.
You talked to users and did research, but the system forgets. Discovery Debt is rotting context: insights learned, then lost. Work ships, learning vanishes. Fix it by wiring memory into decisions and backlogs so every ticket ties to evidence, assumptions, and outcomes. Make learning visible Always
You talked to users. You ran discovery. You captured insights.
But somehow… You’re still building in the dark.
You’re shipping. But you’re not getting smarter.
This isn’t a research problem. It’s not a tooling problem. It’s not because your team doesn’t care.
It’s because your system has amnesia.
