TL;DR; Most features built by software teams do not deliver value, with 65 percent considered waste. Shortening feedback loops through frequent reviews and real user input helps teams focus on what matters and avoid building the wrong things. Act now to get faster, actionable feedback and prevent wasted time and resources.

Do you know what’s worse than fixing a bug? Building the wrong thing in the first place.
The data is clear: Only 35% of features actually deliver value. That means 65% of what teams build is waste, work that never should have been done.

Shorten your feedback loops, or prepare to waste time and money on work that never delivers value.
