Product Backlog Template (Free)

A ready-to-use product backlog template with prioritization scoring, dependencies, and rollout tracking.

Backlog Columns

What to include

  • Title (short, action-oriented)
  • Description (user story format)
  • Acceptance criteria
  • RICE score components (R × I × C ÷ E)
  • Effort estimate (person-weeks)
  • Priority tier (P0 / P1 / P2 / P3)
  • Owner + team
  • Dependencies (upstream/downstream)
  • Status (draft / groomed / in progress / shipped / archived)
  • Metric to move

How to Keep It Lightweight

Rules of thumb

  • Never groom more than 3 sprints out
  • Archive anything untouched for 90+ days
  • Refresh RICE scores quarterly
  • One PM owns the backlog (not committee)

Master These with a Coach

The cohort drills every framework and template with live feedback from FAANG PMs.
