Lean Product Canvas Interactive Figma Templates
When we approached two of the most influential voices in product thinking — Jeff Gothelf and Josh Seiden, co-authors of Lean UX, Sense & Respond, and Who Does What By How Much?, we knew we had an opportunity to shape something meaningful for the global product design community.
Their vision? Create the official Figma and FigJam versions of their newly refined framework: the Lean Product Canvas — the evolved successor to what was formerly known as the Lean UX Canvas.
Together, we set out to not only digitize the canvas but to rethink it for the modern, collaborative product team — optimized for digital workshops, co-creation, and strategic alignment in distributed environments.
🔄 From Lean UX Canvas to Lean Product Canvas
What began as the Lean UX Canvas — a framework for aligning cross-functional teams around outcomes — has matured into the Lean Strategy Canvas, a more holistic and strategic tool designed to help teams set direction before diving into execution.
This canvas doesn’t just ask, “What are we building?”
It asks, “Why are we building this?”
The renamed Lean Product Canvas becomes the essential first step in the product journey, encouraging teams to align around a shared purpose, identify obstacles early, and define actionable outcomes using the proven OKR (Objectives and Key Results) framework.
🤝 The Collaboration
Working directly with Jeff Gothelf, we helped translate the canvas into a dynamic, workshop-friendly format using Figma and FigJam. Rather than a static board or PDF template, our goal was to:
- Make it interactive and intuitive for live facilitation
- Support collaborative editing and asynchronous updates
- Ensure visual clarity while maintaining the structure of the original canvas
- Integrate comments, instructions, and examples right inside the file
Whether you’re a product strategist, UX facilitator, or startup founder, the new digital canvas allows you to run high-impact strategy sessions without switching tools or losing momentum.
✨ What the Lean Product Canvas Helps Achieve
Here’s what teams are already unlocking with this new digital version:
- Strategic Clarity: A shared understanding of vision and desired outcomes
- Goal Alignment: Clear connection between business objectives and team execution
- Obstacle Awareness: Identification and prioritization of roadblocks early
- Focused Execution: A tighter bridge between strategy and delivery
🧠 Designed for Modern Teams
This isn’t just a template — it’s a strategic tool for the way we work now. The Lean Strategy Canvas in FigJam is ideal for:
- Product leaders and heads of strategy
- Cross-functional teams aligning on vision
- Execs and stakeholders setting quarterly OKRs
- Remote workshops and strategic planning sessions
And because it lives in Figma and FigJam, it integrates seamlessly into the design and product workflows teams already use.

🚀 What’s Next
At Arsonist AI, we believe in building tools that don’t just look good — they ignite collaboration and clarity. Partnering with Jeff Gothelf and Josh Seiden to evolve this canvas was more than a design project. It was a chance to help shape how teams think, align, and build with purpose.
The Lean Strategy Canvas is now available for use in both Figma and FigJam, free to duplicate and adapt.
