RICE scoring without the spreadsheet
Maya Lindqvist

RICE is a good framework held back by bad inputs. Reach is usually a guess, and impact is whoever argued loudest.
Reach from real requests
In Tagline, reach is the number of unique accounts that asked for a theme, weighted by plan if you choose.
Keep effort honest
Ask engineering for T-shirt sizes and map them to numbers. Precision matters less than consistency.
The result is a ranked list you can defend in a planning meeting.
