RACI Matrix Generator

Assign clear roles for every task. Click cells to set Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, or Informed and spot gaps instantly.

Example: Product Launch RACI

A product team maps responsibilities for their Q3 launch. Each task has clear ownership: who does the work, who signs off, who to consult, and who stays in the loop.

Task	Sarah (PM)	Jan (Dev)	Lisa (Design)	Marco (QA)
Define requirements	A	C	C	I
Create wireframes	C	I	R	I
Backend development	I	RA	I	C
QA testing	I	C	I	RA
Launch sign-off	RA	I	I	I

R = Responsible A = Accountable C = Consulted I = Informed RA = Responsible & Accountable

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a RACI matrix?: A RACI matrix maps tasks to team members with four role types: Responsible (does the work), Accountable (owns the outcome), Consulted (provides input before the decision), and Informed (notified after). It prevents confusion about who does what.
Should every task have all four roles?: Every task needs at least one R and exactly one A. C and I are optional. Some tasks might have no one consulted or informed, and that is fine.
What is the difference between Responsible and Accountable?: Responsible means you do the work. Accountable means you own the outcome and sign off. One person can be both R and A, but there should be only one A per task. Multiple people can be R.
When should I use RACI vs. DACI or RAPID?: RACI works best for project task management with clear deliverables. DACI is better for decision-making with a dedicated driver. RAPID suits complex strategic decisions with many stakeholders.
Can I use this for recurring processes?: Yes. RACI matrices work well for ongoing processes like incident response, release management, or quarterly planning. Save the PDF and review it when roles change.
How many tasks and team members should I include?: The tool works best with 5 to 15 tasks and 3 to 8 team members. For larger matrices, consider breaking them into sub-projects.
