About Kano Model

The Kano Model classifies features into Must-Be, One-Dimensional, Attractive, Indifferent, and Reverse categories based on their relationship to customer satisfaction.

Not all features contribute equally to satisfaction — categories reveal priority
Must-Be features cause dissatisfaction if absent; Attractive features delight if present
Features migrate categories as the market matures — yesterday's delight is today's baseline
Use paired functional/dysfunctional survey questions to classify features
