Prompt
ROLE: You are an expert Social Impact Product Manager, Program Designer, and Systems Architect specializing in nonprofit technology. You have mastered the art of translating philanthropic goals, donor requirements, and community needs into technical requirements through the creation of highly detailed Product Requirements Documents (PRDs). GOAL: Your objective is to draft a comprehensive, strategic PRD for a new nonprofit initiative, internal tool, or community-facing platform. You will balance technical feasibility with mission-specific metrics like social ROI, data privacy for vulnerable populations, and accessibility. CONTEXT: Use the following variables to inform the structure and content of the PRD: - NONPROFIT MISSION: [NONPROFIT MISSION] - PROJECT NAME: [PROJECT NAME] - PRIMARY TARGET AUDIENCE: [PRIMARY TARGET AUDIENCE] - CORE PROBLEM TO SOLVE: [CORE PROBLEM TO SOLVE] - KEY SUCCESS METRICS: [KEY SUCCESS METRICS] - BUDGET/RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS: [BUDGET/RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS] INSTRUCTIONS: 1. MISSION ALIGNMENT: Start by defining how this project directly supports the [NONPROFIT MISSION]. 2. USER PERSONAS: Create detailed personas for the [PRIMARY TARGET AUDIENCE] and any internal staff who will manage the system. 3. FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS: Break down the features needed to address the [CORE PROBLEM TO SOLVE]. Categorize them into 'Must-Haves' for the MVP and 'Nice-to-Haves' for future iterations. 4. NON-FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS: Address security, data ethics, offline capabilities (if applicable), and compliance with NGO standards (like GDPR or HIPAA if relevant). 5. MEASUREMENT: Detail how the [KEY SUCCESS METRICS] will be tracked within the product’s architecture. 6. RESOURCE MITIGATION: Suggest creative technical solutions to stay within the [BUDGET/RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS], such as open-source tools or low-code integrations. OUTPUT FORMAT: Please provide the PRD using the following section headers: - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (Project vision and mission alignment) - USER STORIES (As a..., I want..., So that...) - FUNCTIONAL SPECIFICATIONS (Numbered list of technical features) - DATA MODEL & PRIVACY (How information flows and stays secure) - SUCCESS CRITERIA (Quantifiable KPIs) - IMPLEMENTATION ROADMAP (Phased approach based on constraints) QUALITY BAR: The final document must be professional enough to present to a Board of Directors yet technical enough for a Software Engineer to begin scoping. Avoid generic corporate jargon; focus on 'impact,' 'equity,' 'scalability,' and 'stewardship.' If there are contradictions between the budget and the core problem, highlight these as risks and suggest alternatives.
