Illustrative example: an invoice app for independent contractors. Your kit is tailored to the app you choose; this is not its generated content.

Feature spec

Goal: Send a clear invoice after finishing a job.

  • Add a client, line items, a due date, and payment instructions.
  • Preview the total before exporting a PDF.
  • Keep an editable draft if export fails.

Screen plan

Invoice editor: Client at the top, editable line items in the middle, total and preview action at the bottom.

States: Empty draft, validation errors beside each field, exporting, and a retry action that preserves the draft.

Differentiate and validate

Hypothesis: Contractors need faster repeat invoices more than more templates.

First experiment: Test duplicating a previous job with five contractors. Watch where they hesitate before expanding the feature set.

The full kit adds a phased build plan, evidence notes, tool prompts, and implementation guidance. It is a plan for your coding agent, not a finished app.

Usage: Mechanics are fair game; never reuse the original name, branding, assets, or verbatim copy.

App Store description

Google Photos is the home for all your photos and videos. Easily store, edit, organize, and search your memories with the help of Google AI. • 15 GB OF CLOUD STORAGE: Every Google account gets up to 15 GB of storage*, 3X more than many other cloud storage services. So you can back up and keep your memories safe automatically on all of your devices. • AI-POWERED EDITING TOOLS: Make complex edits in just a few taps. Remove unwanted distractions with Magic Eraser. Improve out-of-focus blurry photos with Unblur. Enhance lighting and brightness with Portrait Light. • SEARCH MADE SIMPLE: Your photos are easily searchable in a natural, descriptive way, like “Alice and me laughing,” “Kayaking on a lake surrounded by mountains” or “Emma painting in the backyard.” • EASY ORGANIZATION: Google Photos helps declutter your gallery by automatically organizing duplicates and similar photos into photo stacks. It also offers smart, intuitive folders for screenshots, documents, custom albums and daily camera roll organization, making your gallery feel orderly and personalized. You can even save sensitive photos and videos to a locked folder protected by your device screen lock. • RELIVE AND SHARE YOUR FAVORITE MEMORIES: Stroll down memory lane right in Google Photos. Share photos, videos, and albums with any of your contacts — even if they don't use Google Photos. • YOUR MEMORIES ARE SAFE: Your photos and videos are safe and secure from the instant you store them, protected by our advanced security infrastructure while in storage or when you share them. • ALL YOUR MEMORIES IN ONE PLACE: With backup on, you can easily transfer your photos from other apps, galleries and devices, so all of your content is in one place. • FREE UP SPACE: Never worry about running out of space on your phone again. Photos that are backed up in Google Photos can be removed from your device’s storage in just a tap. • PRINT YOUR FAVORITE MOMENTS: From your phone, to your home. Turn your favorite memories into photo books, photo prints, canvas wall art and more. Price varies by product. Printing services available in the US, EU, UK, and CA only. • GOOGLE LENS: Search what you see. This preview enables you to identify text and objects in your photos to learn more and take action. Google Privacy Policy: https://google.com/intl/en_US/policies/privacy * Google Account storage is shared across Google Photos, Gmail, and Google Drive. In some countries, every account gets 5 GB of storage with the option to unlock an additional 10 GB by adding a phone number.

Opportunities

AI-GENERATED OPPORTUNITY HYPOTHESES

These are generated suggestions, not verified review quotations. Check current App Store reviews and speak with users before treating a possible gap as a requirement.

Hypothesis 1

Offer better storage options or tiered storage plans.

Assumption to check: Limited storage for free users

Validate with people who use this workflow before building.

Hypothesis 2

Implement faster, more efficient backup algorithms.

Assumption to check: Slow backup speeds during peak times

Validate with people who use this workflow before building.

Hypothesis 3

Introduce more advanced sorting and filtering features.

Assumption to check: Difficult to navigate large libraries

Validate with people who use this workflow before building.

Hypothesis 4

Optimize performance for editing large images.

Assumption to check: Occasional crashes during heavy editing

Validate with people who use this workflow before building.

Build scope

Plan a focused first version with your coding agent. These are planning assumptions, not a delivery guarantee.

Define the first version

Choose one audience and one core workflow. Use the kit to agree on its screens, data, and acceptance criteria before building.

Set boundaries

Decide which secondary features, integrations, and platform support can wait. Your version does not need to reproduce everything in the original.

Check the hard parts

Validate external services, specialist technology, data access, and ongoing costs for your chosen scope.

A reliable timeline needs an agreed scope and a technical check. Ask your agent to estimate the phases in BUILD_PLAN.md after that review.
