Case Study: HireRight achieves strategic product focus and roadmap transparency with Aha!

We have started thinking more strategically because of Aha!

HireRight, a global background-screening provider based in Irvine, CA, sized 1,001–5,000 employees, struggled with inconsistent product planning: no standard roadmap template, limited long‑term strategy, release‑by‑release feature work, and no centralized way to collect or quantify user feedback. This made it difficult to keep stakeholders informed and ensure teams were building high‑value features.

Implementing Aha! gave HireRight standardized product and portfolio roadmap templates, required product strategies and goals before feature work, and introduced regular roadmap review sessions. The Aha! Ideas portal centralized feedback and prioritization, boosting transparency, stakeholder alignment, cross‑team collaboration, and strategic discipline—resulting in more focused roadmaps and a democratic, data‑driven approach to prioritization.
