Explore more than 200 user stories from three real product backlogs Mike Cohn created, and use them as practical examples for your own team.

200 User Story Examples

Writing better user stories gets easier when you can study real examples instead of starting from a blank page. This collection includes more than 200 stories Mike Cohn wrote for three complete product backlogs.

Use the examples to see how stories can describe user needs across different products, levels of detail, and stages of discovery. They are practical models to discuss with your team—not rigid templates you have to copy.

Download the collection and use it to improve your next story-writing or refinement session.
