# Scoping & Cutting

Decide what to leave out so the thing actually ships

## What this does

You have more ideas than time, and the plan keeps getting bigger instead of smaller. This helps you decide what the first version really needs and what can wait. Reach for it when you are defining an MVP, watching scope creep, or trading one feature off against another.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Carve a first version down to its core
- Push back on scope that keeps growing
- Weigh two features against each other

## About Scoping & Cutting

Scoping work is mostly deciding what not to do. This helps you scope a project and cut features, so the version you commit to is one you can finish.

Bring it in when you are defining an MVP, when scope is creeping past what you agreed to, when you want to ship faster, or when you have to choose between things worth building and can only pick some.
