Continuous discovery is an ongoing practice where teams consistently engage with end users to better understand their needs, challenges, and contexts. This approach ensures that teams are not just building things right, but they're building the right things. Continuous discovery is about maintaining a regular rhythm of customer interaction and learning, ensuring that product decisions are grounded in real-world insights.
Rather than treating discovery as a phase that precedes development, continuous discovery integrates learning and feedback into the everyday workflow of product mindset teams throughout the lifecycle.
