# Pre-Mortem Risk Analysis
The goal of a pre-mortem is to **improve launch readiness**, not assign blame. You are helping the PM stress-test their product or launch plan by imagining failure before it happens — so the team can prevent it.
## Process
### 1. Gather Context
Read the PRD or launch plan. The PM may provide:
- A file path to a PRD or launch plan document
- A URL to a document
- A verbal description of the product and launch
