# PRD Generation Feature
## Overview
The PRD (Product Requirements Document) Generation feature is a powerful addition to the Audio Transcription Tool that transforms meeting key points into structured product requirements documents. This feature leverages AI to analyze meeting discussions and automatically generate comprehensive PRDs following industry-standard templates.
## Feature Workflow
```
Audio File → Transcription → Key Points → PRD Generation → Download PRD
```
### Step-by-Step Process:
1. **Upload Audio**: User uploads meeting recording
2. **Generate Transcription**: AI transcribes the audio content
3. **Extract Key Points**: AI identifies and summarizes key meeting points
4. **Generate PRD**: **NEW** - AI transforms key points into structured PRD
5. **Download PRD**: User can download the PRD as a markdown (.md) file
## PRD Template Structure
The generated PRD follows a comprehensive 8-section template:
### 1. Executive Summary
- High-level overview of the product/feature
- Key value propositions
- Strategic alignment
### 2. Problem Statement
- Clear definition of the problem being solved
- Current pain points and challenges
- Market opportunity
### 3. Goals & Objectives
- Primary and secondary objectives
- Success criteria
- Business goals alignment
### 4. User Stories/Requirements
- Functional requirements
- User personas and use cases
- Acceptance criteria
### 5. Success Metrics
- Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
- Measurable outcomes
- Success benchmarks
### 6. Timeline/Milestones
- Development phases
- Key deliverables
- Timeline estimates
### 7. Technical Requirements
- System requirements
- Technical constraints
- Integration needs
### 8. Risk Assessment
- Potential risks and challenges
- Mitigation strategies
- Contingency plans
## Usage Instructions
### Basic Usage
2. **Upload Audio File**
- Click "Upload Audio File"
- Select your meeting recording (MP3, WAV, M4A, etc.)
```bash
uv run transcribe_gradio.py
```
2. **Upload Audio File**
- Click "Upload Audio File"
- Select your meeting recording (MP3, WAV, M4A, etc.)
3. **Generate Transcription**
- Click "🎯 Transcribe Audio"
- Wait for transcription to complete
4. **Generate Key Points**
- Click "🔑 Generate Key Points"
- Review the extracted meeting key points
5. **Generate PRD** *(NEW)*
- Click "📋 Generate PRD" (appears after key points)
- Wait for AI to process and structure the PRD
- Review the generated PRD in markdown format
6. **Download PRD**
- Click the download button to save as `.md` file
- File naming: `PRD_YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM.md`
### Advanced Usage
#### Using Services Independently
```python
from services.openai_service import OpenAIService
from services.file_service import FileService
# Initialize services
openai_service = OpenAIService()
file_service = FileService()
# Generate PRD from key points
key_points = "Your meeting key points here..."
prd_content = openai_service.generate_prd_from_key_points(key_points)
# Create downloadable file
prd_file = file_service.create_prd_download_file(prd_content)
print(f"PRD saved to: {prd_file}")
```
## Configuration Options
### Environment Variables
Add to your `.env` file:
```env
# PRD Feature Configuration
ENABLE_PRD_GENERATION=true # Enable/disable PRD feature
PRD_OPENAI_MODEL=gpt-4 # OpenAI model for PRD generation
PRD_MAX_TOKENS=2000 # Maximum tokens for PRD generation
PRD_TEMPERATURE=0.3 # Temperature for PRD generation (more structured)
PRD_FILE_PREFIX=PRD_ # Prefix for downloaded PRD files
```
### Feature Toggle
The PRD generation feature can be enabled/disabled via configuration:
```python
from config.settings import settings
if settings.enable_prd_generation:
# PRD feature is available
prd_button.visible = True
else:
# PRD feature is disabled
prd_button.visible = False
```
## Technical Implementation
### Service Layer Enhancements

"Executive Summary",
"Problem Statement",
"Goals & Objectives",
"User Stories/Requirements",
"Success Metrics",
"Timeline/Milestones",
"Technical Requirements",
"Risk Assessment"
]
PRD_UI_LABELS = {
"generate_prd_button": "📋 Generate PRD",
"prd_output_label": "Product Requirements Document",
"prd_download_label": "Download PRD (.md)",
"prd_generating": "Generating PRD...",
"prd_error": "Error generating PRD"
}
```
## Example Output
### Sample PRD Generated from Meeting
```markdown
# Product Requirements Document
*Generated from meeting analysis on 2025-01-21*
## Executive Summary
Based on the meeting discussion, we are developing a new user dashboard feature that will provide real-time analytics and customizable widgets for improved user engagement and data visibility.
## Problem Statement
Current users struggle with accessing key metrics quickly, leading to decreased productivity and poor decision-making due to scattered information across multiple interfaces.
## Goals & Objectives
- **Primary**: Increase user engagement by 40% through improved dashboard experience
- **Secondary**: Reduce time-to-insight by 60% with real-time analytics
- **Business Goal**: Drive user retention and reduce churn rate
## User Stories/Requirements
- As a user, I want to see real-time metrics on my dashboard
- As an admin, I need customizable widgets for different user roles
- As a manager, I require exportable reports from dashboard data
## Success Metrics
- User engagement increase: 40%
- Time-to-insight reduction: 60%
- Dashboard adoption rate: 80%
- User satisfaction score: >4.5/5
## Timeline/Milestones
- **Phase 1** (Weeks 1-2): Design and wireframes
- **Phase 2** (Weeks 3-6): Core dashboard development
- **Phase 3** (Weeks 7-8): Widget customization features
- **Phase 4** (Weeks 9-10): Testing and deployment
## Technical Requirements
- React.js frontend with responsive design
- Real-time data streaming via WebSocket
- RESTful API for dashboard configuration
- Database optimization for analytics queries
## Risk Assessment
- **Risk**: API performance under high load
- **Mitigation**: Implement caching and rate limiting
- **Risk**: Complex widget customization UX
- **Mitigation**: User testing and iterative design
```
