Overview

An Experience Brief is data driven documentation developed by UX strategy and business to define and gather existing data metrics around the design problem, agree upon the definition of success, and identify the measure of success with post-project analytics. The brief defines the experience and goes beyond ‘look and feel’ and asks, ‘What is the experience we want the user to have?”.
