Getting Inspiration for Feature Elicitation: App Store- vs. LLM-based Approach
Over the past decade, app store (AppStore)-inspired requirements elicitation has proven to be highly beneficial. Developers often explore competitors’ apps to gather inspiration for new app features. With the advance of Generative AI, recent studies have demonstrated the potential of large language model (LLM)-inspired requirements elicitation. LLMs can assist in this process by providing inspiration for new feature ideas. While both approaches are gaining popularity in practice, there is limited insight into their comparison. We report on a comparative study between AppStore-inspired and LLM-inspired approaches for refining features into sub-features. By manually analyzing 1,200 sub-features recommended from both approaches, we identified their benefits, challenges, and key differences.
