About Design Sprint

A five-day design sprint framework with daily activities, solution sketches, voting, user-test records, and facilitator checklists.

What’s included

  • Daily problem-to-test schedule
  • Solution sketches, heat-map voting, and straw polls
  • User-test sessions, observations, and facilitator checklists

How to use it in practice

Define the problem and decision maker before scheduling the sprint. Recruit suitable test participants and check the daily activities against team capacity. Record observations separately from conclusions, then decide what evidence supports the next step after testing.

Set it up in your workspace

  1. Open the original Notion Marketplace listing and add the template to your chosen workspace while signed in. Keep its example records until you understand how the pages connect.
  2. Define the problem and decision maker before scheduling the sprint.
  3. Try one complete example before adding a large backlog. Check that its views and any calculations show what you expect, then replace the sample content with your own.

Who it suits and what to consider

Product teams running a time-boxed design experiment with structured facilitation. A sprint’s test results are limited by its participants and prototype; they do not independently validate a whole product.

Questions about this template

Does voting prove which idea users will prefer?+

No. Voting helps a team choose an option to investigate. Use the subsequent test and other relevant evidence to assess the idea’s actual strengths and limits.
