Five copy-paste prompts. One sprint-ready User Story (with Acceptance Criteria, Gherkin scenarios, and INVEST check) in 10 minutes instead of 90. Works with any AI tool you already use.
Sound familiar?
More time formatting than thinking about what to build. Multiply by 10 stories per sprint.
Missing acceptance criteria, vague requirements, no edge cases. Every sprint.
Your team debates wording instead of value. Half the meeting is writing from scratch.
| Metric | Manual | With C.R.A.F.T. |
|---|---|---|
| Time per story | 30–90 min | 3–10 min |
| Acceptance Criteria | Often missing | 4–7 testable |
| Edge cases | 2–3 | 8–15 |
| Gherkin scenarios | Rarely written | Auto-generated |
| INVEST check | Manual (if at all) | AI-verified |
| Meetings | 2 hours | 30 minutes |
At 10 stories per sprint that's 6+ hours every two weeks. About 156 hours per year. Almost a full month of work spent formatting instead of thinking about what to build.
The solution
80% of refinement is pattern-based labor. AI handles patterns. Your expertise stays yours. One minute prompting, seven minutes editing.
1 minute prompting + 7 minutes editing.
Quality gate built into the process.
AI surfaces 8–15 from pattern recognition.
10 × 10 min vs 10 × 45 min = 5h 50m back.
This isn't for everyone. Skip it if:
The framework
Tell AI your product, users, tech stack, and conventions. Write it once, reuse for months.
→ AI references your actual team context from now on
Paste the exact stakeholder words. Don't clean up. The messy email IS the input.
→ AI asks 3–5 clarifying questions for your stakeholder
One prompt generates the complete User Story: title, As a/I want/So that, 4–7 AC, dependencies, risks.
→ You'll never stare at a blank page again
AI catches 8–12 edge cases and classifies each as AC, separate story, or team risk.
→ Surprises happen in your prompt, not your standup
Generate Gherkin scenarios + color-coded INVEST scorecard. If it passes, it's sprint-ready.
→ No more rejections in Sprint Planning
Before / After
A real example from the Moj Raspored case study (the scheduling app that started this whole framework). Stakeholder request on the left. C.R.A.F.T. output on the right. Ten minutes apart.
"Hey Dejan, I run a small clinic with 4 doctors and patients keep calling at random hours to book. Can you build something? Like Google Calendar but simpler. Patients should book themselves online so reception isn't on the phone all day. Cancellations too, we get a lot of those. Reminder texts would be nice. Need it in like a month?"
No acceptance criteria. No edge cases. No definition of "simple." Two hours of refinement waiting to happen.
User Story
As a clinic patient, I want to book an appointment with a specific doctor online, so I don't need to call reception during office hours.
Acceptance Criteria (7 testable)
Edge cases caught: 8
Two patients clicking the same slot. SMS bouncing on a typo. Doctor blocking personal time mid-day. Cancellations under the 4-hour rule. (Plus 4 more in the case study walkthrough.)
INVEST scorecard
I ✓ N ✓ V ✓ E ✓ S ⚠ (split candidate) T ✓
Module 4 of the course walks through every prompt that produced this output, including the messy ones that didn't work the first time.

Your instructor
Chief Information Officer • Agile Educator • 70+ Certifications
As a CIO, Dejan translates between the technical and business worlds — making complex frameworks work for people who didn't ask for them.
With a Master's in Computer Science and 20+ years across Developer, Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Agile Coach roles, he's trained 140,000+ students with a 4.4-star average across 7,600+ reviews.
This course was born from a real project: a friend called asking for "a simple scheduling app." Dejan used AI prompts to turn that phone call into a 12-section functional specification. That process became C.R.A.F.T.
Early-bird pricing
The course is being built. Waitlist members lock in the lowest price and get first access.
Saves most students 6 hours per sprint.
Pays for itself before sprint review. Price increases after launch.
User Story Mastery (full course)
The complete companion course on writing user stories from scratch. Yours free when you join the waitlist. Stack it with C.R.A.F.T. for end-to-end story craftsmanship: USM teaches the fundamentals, C.R.A.F.T. teaches the AI-assisted workflow.

Use C.R.A.F.T. on your next 10 user stories. If those 10 don't save you at least 5 hours compared to your current process, here's what happens:
Valid 30 days from purchase. One refund per customer. The standard money-back guarantee, but with my time built in.
FAQ
C.R.A.F.T. stands for Context Injection, Raw Request Capture, Ask for Structure, Force Edge Cases, and Test & Validate. Five copy-paste prompts that turn any vague request into a sprint-ready User Story.
Product Owners and Scrum Masters with 1–5 years of experience who understand Scrum basics but waste hours manually refining vague requests.
All of them: ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Gemini, or on-premise solutions like Ollama, Azure OpenAI, and Copilot Enterprise.
Currently in production. Join the waitlist for $29 to lock in the early-bird price and get first access when it goes live. Price increases after launch.
No. C.R.A.F.T. replaces manual prep. Your meetings become 30 min instead of 2 hours because the team starts from an 80%-complete draft.
The Product Bible solves this. Module 5 teaches you to build a reusable context block. The case study uses a niche TV production domain as proof.
Yes, plus a personal upgrade. The 10-Story Promise: try C.R.A.F.T. on your next 10 stories. If they don't save you at least 5 hours, email me your prompts and outputs. I'll rewrite them for your domain free of charge. If they still don't save you time, full refund within 30 days. You keep the videos, PDFs, and the User Story Mastery bonus regardless.
