Example (filled in)

📍 Speedboat — Week 3 Snapshot
   12 – 16 May 2026

🟢 LANDED
   • Bulk export API — Customer — Enterprise customers can now export >10k rows; unblocks 3 renewal conversations
   • Updated onboarding flow copy — Business — Sales demo now includes revised first-run experience

🔵 PREVIEW DECISIONS
   • AI summary feature → Kill — Latency too high for inline UX (~800ms). Parked until model improves.
   • Dashboard redesign → Promote — Validated with 3 customers in demo. Moving to Build with Partial Reuse label.

🔴 INTENDED BUT DIDN'T LAND
   • Webhook retry logic — blocked on decision from Platform team re: retry strategy. Carrying to W4.

⚙️ RUN
   Reactive: P1 login timeout (resolved Tues, ~4h)
   Proactive: Dependency upgrade for auth library
   Estimated Run %: ~15%

📊 WIP
   Preview: 2 active (limit: 3)
   Build: 3 active (limit: 3)

💡 KEY LEARNING
   AI summary PoC taught us that any inline AI feature needs <200ms round-trip to feel native.
   We should add latency budget as a Preview exit criterion for AI features going forward.
