Q: Who is the target market: housewives, working couples, bachelors, students? There are nuances that could vary the value of features

Q: Is this for Store usage or Grocery delivery or both? 

Q: Is this being developed by a single Grocery company (& free) or for a Delivery Company (across Grocers) or simply as a consumer service

Q: Is this purely mobile App or mobile + desktop web?

Q: What's the marketing and distribution plan . .. are we starting with a small test market and test audience to iterate or are we trying a big budget launch? How long do we have to iterate

Q: Is the fulfillment aspect being delivered or ready in parallel.

Let's say working couples; Grocery delivery, Across multiple Grocery store brands

Feature prioritizationFeature/NeedValueEffortPriority

Ability to build a shared grocery list

HighLowHigh

Per item, capture item name (potentially link to real grocery site link), image, the Grocery Company from where wanted, current price

   

Always show running total of current price

   

Capture a date of list creation, date of item addition

   

Ability to quickly cross off an item when done and capture date and who did it

   
Ability to setup payment/billing method   
Ability to get to "agreement on completion" &  "submit" an order,    
Ability to track delivery and send notifications   
Ability to "park" items on a wishlist until one of the users moves it to an "order"   

 

Would ask at this point if prioritization is important or think deeper about the MVP needed for a real launch
