We are thrilled to release the new MoSCoW Prioritization Framework app, a smart and free AI-Powered MoSCoW framework tool that guides you through the prioritization process step-by-step. This intelligent wizard helps you and your team make decisive choices about what to build next, ensuring your efforts are always aligned with your most critical goals.
The Challenge of Competing Priorities
When you’re faced with a long list of potential features and tasks, it’s difficult to know where to start. Trying to categorize everything at once can be overwhelming and lead to unfocused debates. To prioritize effectively, you need a structured process that allows you to consider each level of priority carefully and deliberately.
Introducing the MoSCoW Framework Tool: A Guided Path to Decisive Action
We built this tool to provide a clear, simple, and effective wizard for implementing the MoSCoW framework. Instead of presenting you with a single, complex matrix, our ai moscow priortization tool guides you through each category—Must-have, Should-have, Could-have, and Won’t-have—one at a time. This focused approach ensures a more thoughtful and less overwhelming prioritization process.
- Follow a Guided 5-Step Process: The tool walks you through the complete MoSCoW cycle, with dedicated steps for defining your Must-haves, Should-haves, Could-haves, and Won’t-haves, before compiling a final report.
- AI-Assisted Brainstorming: At each step, our AI can help you brainstorm relevant features and requirements for that specific category, ensuring you don’t miss anything important.
- Focused, Step-by-Step Prioritization: By tackling one category at a time, your team can focus its discussion, leading to better, faster, and more aligned decisions.
- Clearly Define What’s Out of Scope: The dedicated “Won’t-have” step is crucial for managing expectations and preventing scope creep later in the project.
- Generate a Consolidated Report: After completing the steps, the tool automatically generates a clean, complete MoSCoW matrix, providing a clear guide for your development team.
How to Prioritize Your Features with MoSCoW
Bringing focus to your project is just a few clicks away. Here’s how to access the tool:

Once you’re in the app, follow the five-step wizard:

- Step 2: Define Should-Haves: List the features that are important but not critical.
- Step 3: Define Could-Haves: List desirable but not necessary features that can be included if time and resources permit.
- Step 4: Define Won’t-Haves: Explicitly list what will not be included in this release to manage expectations.
- Step 5: Generate Report: The tool will compile all your inputs into a final, organized MoSCoW matrix.
