Before choosing what to generate, ask yourself one simple question: 

What do I need clarity on right now? 

Uncover offers different generators for different thinking needs. They are intentionally flexible and can be used in any order.

Use these when the problem feels vague, broad, or poorly defined. 

What you can generate 

• 5 Whys 
• How Might We (HMW) 
• Problem Statement 

These help you move from symptoms to root causes, and from assumptions to clearer framing.

Use these when you need empathy, perspective, and context around real people. 

What you can generate 

• User Persona 
• User Journey Map 

These outputs help you understand your users needs, motivations, pains, and moments that matter while making assumptions visible. They are starting points, not research replacements.

Use these when ideas feel scattered or disconnected. 

What you can generate 

• Mind Map 
• User Stories 

These help you organize thoughts, surface gaps, and turn loose ideas into something you can reason about. They are especially useful when moving from exploration toward alignment.

Use this when you’re approaching solution space but still thinking conceptually. 

What you can generate 

• User Flows 
• User Journey Map

User flows & Journey Maps in Uncover are conceptual, not final UX specifications. They help you reason about sequences, decisions, and paths before designing screens.

• You don’t need to generate everything 
• There is no “correct order” 
• You can regenerate any output at any time 
• Each artifact is a building block, not a final deliverable 
• Uncover is designed to support iteration, not enforce a process.
