Objective, verifiable software product features and capabilities. Define functional capabilities using camelCase naming with prefixes: "has", "is", "accepts", "supports".
Naming Convention Rules
  • • Use camelCase formatting (e.g., "hasWorkflowBuilder", "hasAPIIntegrations")
  • • Start with prefixes: "has", "is", "accepts", "supports"
  • • Examples shown below can be extended - no limitations on additional capabilities
  • • All values are boolean (true/false) for objective verification
