The Strategic Theme Allocation Script

Recommended Spoken Script
"Our Q3 roadmap allocates 50% engineering capacity to Core Revenue Expansion (WhatsApp voice bridges), 30% to Enterprise Reliability (sub-300ms latency), and 20% to UX Friction Reduction. We evaluated 45 feature requests using RICE scoring; this allocation directly moves our target metric of 40% user retention."
