Announced in the Lately @ Lucid launch on April 3rd, Lucid has acquired airfocus ! airfocus is an AI-powered product management and roadmapping platform that keeps teams and stakeholders aligned—no matter how differently they operate. We believe that the flexibility of the Lucid canvas, coupled with the structure of airfocus, will support product teams throughout their entire workflow. Product managers and teams are challenged to be organized and transparent, while also being creative and collaborative. Updating executive leadership and maintaining alignment across stakeholders in engineering, UX, and marketing is a difficult task. This challenge is exemplified with complex roadmap visualization, scattered data, lack of visibility into stakeholder work and bandwidth, and misaligned priorities. This can lead to wasted resources, missed deadlines, and costly rework. That’s where Lucid + airfocus comes in - blending flexibility and structure to support product teams from strategy to ideation to reality. So how exactly does it work? You can learn more about the acquisition in our blog post , but let’s take a look at a real-world example of the Lucid Cards for airfocus integration. From Lucid to airfocus A group of product managers have recently collected user feedback and they’re ready to talk through new feature ideas. Within Lucid, the team groups user pain points, brainstorms ideas on sticky notes, maps out connections, sketches rough concepts, and utilizes Visual Activities to create team alignment. They invite cross-functional teams and stakeholders to brainstorm, gathering their insights and feedback before finalizing ideas. After choosing the most promising ideas, the PMs convert some sticky notes into airfocus cards within the Lucid canvas. Their newly created airfocus cards link to corresponding airfocus items, all housed in a structured backlog within airfocus. Now within airfocus, product managers can use the tools below to see where their new ideas fit in with the greater product vision. Prioritization tools: Prioritize items in the backlog with scoring frameworks, user insights, and Priority Poker - an interactive and collaborative way to align on priority ratings. Visualize quick wins and time wasters in a priority chart. Roadmap planning: Build and share clear roadmaps. See data across multiple views like priority charts, timelines, gantt charts, and kanban workflows. OKR management: Connect OKRs to roadmaps and workflows all within airfocus, driving team alignment across a unified strategy. Capacity planning: Set capacity limits and plan for multiple scenarios to ensure that your objectives align with available resources. Integrations: Ensure that your work stays in sync with Jira and Azure DevOps integrations. Embed Lucid documents in airfocus : Access Lucid documents in airfocus within your workspace or within an airfocus item. From airfocus to Lucid Let’s say a product manager on the team is interested in refining an existing feature. The PM starts in airfocus to evaluate the current priority rating and track customer feedback. To map out a new user journey based on possible feature changes, they switch into Lucid. Within Lucid, the product manager invites other product team members, and a UX team, to collaborate in a Lucidspark board. They’re able to map user journeys, run a design sprint, and sketch wireframes. The team imports corresponding airfocus items into the canvas for easy reference, and maps dependencies within Lucid to visualize the roadmap all within the same board. Within Lucid, the product team can use the tools below to collaborate before documenting any changes in airfocus. Visual Activities : Vote on ideas, categorize and prioritize tasks, and gather group feedback to achieve consensus. Dynamic Tables : Organize cards in a dynamic table and arrange by categories such as epic, status, or owner. Dependency mapping : Easily visualize project dependencies on the Lucid canvas to identify risk, and adjust tasks to ensure meeting deadlines. Agile estimation : From estimation shape banks, add estimate shapes (like story points) to cards directly. Lucid + airfocus Lucid provides an open canvas that adapts to any workflow—allowing product, engineering, and UX teams to collaborate in ways that work well for them. With airfocus, you can bring all team ideas, roadmaps, and prioritization frameworks into a structured, single source of truth. airfocus also offers a modular approach to product management, with highly customizable views for different audiences. Both platforms offer structured templates to guide teams, but they ultimately allow product teams to tailor their experience. Together Lucid and airfocus can support any working style!
