The Kano model is a feature prioritization framework developed by Professor Noriaki Kano in 1984, aimed at identifying and categorizing product features based on their ability to satisfy customers and enhance loyalty. It classifies features into five categories—basic, performance, excitement, indifferent, and reverse features—based on customer satisfaction levels and implementation costs. The model emphasizes conducting surveys among loyal customers to assess potential features, plotting them on a graph to evaluate the nonlinear relationship between functionality and satisfaction. This approach helps product teams prioritize features that maximize customer delight and competitive advantage, while minimizing time and resources spent on less impactful features. The Kano model is particularly useful for developing new products or enhancing existing ones, especially when teams face time and resource constraints, and can be integrated into a strategic product roadmap to improve customer satisfaction and retention.
