Idea Prioritization (ICE Framework)
Goal
Ingest an idea description and current state, score it on Impact, Confidence, and Ease, and compute the ICE Score = Impact x Confidence x Ease to propose an execution priority. All evaluations must follow explicit criteria and rely only on stated evidence; no inference or guesswork.
When to use
- To quickly order an idea backlog and select items for exploration and experiments
- When you have at least some explicit evidence (interviews/data/tests) and a rough team effort estimate
- Before drafting experiment plans for a leaf opportunity in an Opportunity Solution Tree
Input
- Idea title and description: goal, target metric, scope, and working hypothesis
- Idea analysis and current state: data/user/market/test evidence, execution hypothesis, risks, and effort estimate
- Optional:
- Target metric and expected change rate (%) or range
- Estimated effort (person-weeks)

Scoring model
For the full scoring model details, see references/ice-scoring-model.md.
Quick reference
- Impact: Map expected metric change (%) to a 0-10 scale
- Ease: Map estimated effort (person-weeks) to a 10-1 scale (less effort = higher ease)
