Roadmap Prioritization — Canonical Workflow
Roadmap Prioritization: provisional AI workflow implementation reference with candidate models, providers, tools, and architecture.
Overview
Roadmap prioritization takes a backlog of candidate features, initiatives and bug fixes and produces a structured scoring against strategic fit, user evidence, estimated effort and dependency risk. A reasoning model evaluates each item against the product strategy document, retrieves supporting user feedback from the evidence store, and assigns a weighted composite score. Items are clustered into thematic groups to surface strategic coherence, and a reviewer-ready trade-off narrative explains the top-ranked items and any tensions between high-scoring candidates. The output is a prioritised roadmap draft ready for planning review.

Coverage means the model is a candidate worth evaluating for this workflow, not a ranking or a recommendation. Models whose reference pages are still in review are omitted.
Benchmarks relevant to this workflow
- Chatbot Arena ELO — LMSYS crowd-sourced pairwise preference leaderboard across open and closed models.
- IFEval — Instruction-following evaluation with verifiable constraints.
- MMLU — Massive Multitask Language Understanding — 57 academic and professional subjects.
These are the benchmarks whose task shape bears on this workflow. Each one only describes its own protocol and date, so confirm the harness matches your workload before treating a score as evidence.
