I’m disappointed to see the rise of generative AI tools that are designed to replace discovery with real humans. But when we use generative AI to replace customer interviews , to generate opportunity solution trees , or to do our thinking for us, we fundamentally misunderstand the purpose of discovery. Don’t get me wrong.

Surveying your mobile customers is a great way to find out more about who they are, what drives them back to your app, how they feel about your app, and what they’d like improved. Every customer has unique preferences, tastes, likes, and dislikes. Intuitively, customer individuality makes perfect sense.
