Make user needs easier to discuss without confusing an archetype with a real person.

Illustrative idea, not a published runnable template. Grunt is prelaunch; live service is paused and live provider connections and outcomes remain unverified. The steps, providers, and outcomes below describe a concept.

For a defined product, region, and research purpose, organize permitted market evidence into draft user archetypes and save a report with optional illustrative imagery. Cite and date sources, describe sample and market-size limitations, avoid sensitive trait assumptions or stereotypes, use aggregate evidence instead of identifiable personal data, and have a researcher validate the archetypes before they influence product, marketing, or access decisions.

Actual availability depends on published steps, supported connections, permissions, and provider approval.

What this workflow could do

Helps a product team develop draft user archetypes from selected market research and illustrate them for discussion.

Review points proposed in this idea

Market reports and estimated audience sizes can be incomplete, while invented personas can reinforce stereotypes. Keep evidence and assumptions separate, avoid sensitive personal profiling, label visuals as illustrative, protect research materials, and validate findings with actual user research before decisions.

Proposed setup considerations

These are planning notes for the concept, not instructions for a currently available template.

  1. 01

    Approve sources and research purpose

    Use reliable, permitted material relevant to the product and intended audience.

  2. 02

    Set fair and privacy-preserving criteria

    Avoid sensitive attributes, individual identification, and unsupported audience assumptions.

  3. 03

    Separate facts, estimates, and hypotheses

    Keep citations, dates, confidence, and market-size caveats visible in the report.

  4. 04

    Require researcher validation

    Treat persona drafts as workshop aids until checked against suitable user research.

Read the prelaunch status

Published templates and verified customer availability remain pending.
