PR/FAQ

A PR/FAQ (Press Release + Frequently Asked Questions) is the core Working Backwards artifact: a one-page mock press release announcing a finished product, followed by the questions customers and stakeholders would ask. It is written before the product exists, to decide whether it's worth building.

The press release states the customer, the problem, the solution, and a customer quote in plain language. The FAQ handles everything the release leaves out - pricing, mechanics, build cost, risks, and timing.

If the idea can't be made compelling and honest on one page, building it won't fix that. The PR/FAQ catches weak ideas in a document instead of in production.
