Design Critique Facilitator

A structured, goal-focused design critique that gives designers specific, actionable feedback tied to user outcomes.

Prompt Template

The design is for [PRODUCT_OR_FEATURE_NAME] and is intended to help [USER_TYPE] accomplish [USER_GOAL]. The design is currently at [DESIGN_STAGE — e.g., concept / wireframe / high-fidelity]. Provide critique in the following structured format: (1) First impression — describe what the eye goes to first and whether that matches the intended hierarchy, (2) Goal alignment — evaluate whether the design successfully helps the user accomplish [USER_GOAL]; cite specific elements that help or hinder, (3) What's working — 3–4 specific design decisions that are effective and why, (4) Opportunities — 3–4 specific, actionable improvements framed as questions or suggestions (not orders), each with a rationale, (5) Open questions — 2–3 questions the designer should answer before the next iteration, (6) Priority recommendation — one most important change to make before the next review.
