Raw Blame History

Product Context

Problem Statement

Traditional AI tools provide direct answers, replacing human thinking rather than amplifying it. This leads to:

Dependency on AI-generated solutions without understanding
Generic, one-size-fits-all approaches that don't adapt to project needs
Loss of human creativity and strategic thinking
Lack of structured methodology for complex software projects

Solution

BMAD-METHOD provides a structured framework where:

AI agents guide rather than dictate - Through strategic questioning and expert facilitation
Workflows adapt to complexity - 5 levels (0-4) from quick fixes to enterprise scale
Specialized agents provide domain expertise - PM, Architect, Developer, etc.
Reflection drives better solutions - Guided thinking processes unlock creativity

Target Users

Software developers building web, mobile, embedded, or game applications
Teams needing standardized AI collaboration workflows
Project managers orchestrating complex development efforts
Creators building custom AI agents and workflows (via BMB)

User Experience Goals

Key Differentiators

Scale-Adaptive: Automatically adjusts workflow complexity
Reflection-Driven: Guides human thinking vs replacing it
Agent-Specialized: Domain experts vs general-purpose chat
Update-Safe: Customizations survive framework updates
Framework-First: Extensible platform vs closed system
