Idea Refiner

AI-native canvas for founders to track validation loops — shareable with advisors.

Market Gap Finder

No tool offers structured, persistent validation records. Miro is too freeform, Notion too static.

Founding Hypothesis

Structured canvas after each command → faster loops, more decisive validation.

Future Press Release

Founders share a living map of decisions and insights with advisors in one link.

Market Research

TAM $4.2B, SAM $420M. Beachhead: pre-seed technical founders using LLMs.

Competitive Analysis

Miro too generic, Notion no structure, Linear dev-centric. Gap is uncontested.

ICP Strategist

Pre-seed technical founder. Loses context between sessions. Trigger: pitch prep or co-founder onboarding.

User Journey Map

First run → canvas populates → shares with advisor → loops faster. Highest leverage: the share moment.

Design Direction

Dark canvas, purple header, orange accents. Public Sans + Liberation Mono. Structured but alive.

PRD Generator

P0: Static shell with sidebar, dot-grid canvas, zoom controls, and decision prompt. No auth or API.

Prototype

Next.js 16 + Tailwind v4 on Vercel. 15 mock nodes, decision prompt active on load.

Customer Discovery Guide

Probe past behavior, not intent. Key: "Where did context get lost?" and "Who did you share with?"

Persona Pressure Test

Synthetic interview with "Maya." Objection: "I use Notion." Pivot: "Show me that doc."

Interview Synthesizer

6/8 lost context between sessions. Top signal: "couldn't show my co-founder." Partially confirmed.
