How it goes wrong
The loudest voice wins.
The roadmap is whatever survived the last meeting.
What Weivo does instead
1 Every stakeholder carries an explicit weight.
Influence is set in the open and printed on the report.
Stakeholders rate what they need. You rate what each feature delivers. Weivo ranks the roadmap and shows whose weight put each item there.

How it goes wrong
The roadmap is whatever survived the last meeting.
What Weivo does instead
Influence is set in the open and printed on the report.
How it goes wrong
It looks like rigor and convinces nobody.
What Weivo does instead
There is no feature on the ballot to push, so scoring your own pet project stops working.
How it goes wrong
One person's model of the company, stale the day it is written.
What Weivo does instead
Each one rates the needs from a private link. You rate only what each feature delivers.
Rate the needs. Never the features. That one rule is the whole method.
Every level of detail
Every number comes from the inputs, so the ranking holds up at any depth. Shown on the demo project.
Weivo is in private beta. Get an email the day it opens to everyone.
From ranking to plan
Every feature ranked by value for effort, with a flag wherever stakeholders disagree and a breakdown of every score.
How the ranking is built →Set a capacity and see what fits this period, must-haves first, and what is deferred and why. Compare two strategies before you commit.
Roadmap scenarios →Give the model a total, in hours, in your own currency, or both, and it splits it across programs in proportion to their weighted value.
Budget allocation →Built for
Internal and platform PMs
Structure the intake as objectives, let each consuming team rate them with a weight that reflects reality, and fit the quarter to the capacity you have.
Read more →Product PMs
Turn them into weighted stakeholders, let them rate what the product needs to do, and rank the backlog on what it delivers.
Read more →PMOs and portfolio offices
Sponsors rate the objectives, programs are rated on what they deliver, and the budget splits itself in proportion to weighted value.
