What is the Kano Model?

The Kano model is a user research technique developed in the 1980s by Professor Noriaki Kano, which categorises product features into five categories:

  1. Must-have - or "basic expectations"
  2. Performance - customer satisfaction increases in line with the quality of the feature
  3. Delighters - if present, people are surprised and delighted
  4. Reverse - actively disliked by customers
  5. Indifferent - nobody cares if these features exist or not

Using these categories, you can prioritise your roadmap and invest the right amount to maximise customer satisfaction.
