Prompt
Create a mind map for user research synthesis with central topic "User research synthesis" and five branches. Four theme branches: Onboarding friction, Pricing concerns, AI trust, Workflow handoffs. Each carries 2 leaf insights. Fifth branch: Opportunities, with concrete product changes to ship.
Context
- - Each top-level branch is a theme that emerged.
- - Quotes pinned to the leaves keep the evidence visible.
- - Opportunities feed directly into product backlog.
Patterns
- - Themes as branches, evidence (quotes) on the leaves.
- - Dedicated Opportunities branch surfaces what to ship.

Notes from the field
- Avoid premature solutioning. Capture the pain first, then propose opportunities.
- Tag each leaf with the interview source so the link to evidence stays clear.
- Re-run the synthesis after every 5-10 new interviews.
Frequently asked
How many interviews do I need before synthesis?
Usually 5-8 before the second round of synthesis starts producing diminishing returns. Saturation is the real signal, not the number.
