Overview: Why Domain-First Design is Critical for AI-Native Products

Traditional software development starts with user stories and features. AI-native product development must start with understanding how domain experts think and reason. The goal is to abstract expert cognition into intelligent systems that can reason alongside or better than human experts.

The Fundamental Shift

Traditional Product Design: User needs → Features → Implementation Domain-First Design: Expert reasoning → Intelligence architecture → Product layers

This approach ensures that your AI-native product doesn't just automate tasks—it thinks like an expert in your domain.
