Pressure-test a startup idea before you write a line.
Free & open · no signup · read-only — every stage ends by asking · nothing leaves your machine
One niche, end to end: map it, prove the pain, tear down the field, size it, position the entry, stress the model, then rule.
The conductor fetches each brief in turn and writes its report before moving on — later briefs can build on earlier findings. Or copy any single stage to run it alone.
7 reports in reports/, plus the run's own INDEX.md: NICHE.md, DEMAND.md, COMPETITORS.md, MARKET.md, POSITIONING.md, MOAT.md, VERDICT.md. Feed them to the optional Studio to turn findings into commits, or run 28 · Roadmap Synthesis to merge them into one plan.
Copy the conductor into your agent inside the repo you want checked. It runs each Goal Prompt in sequence, honoring each one's ask-first rule.
One niche, fully mapped — the players, buyers, channels, watering holes, jargon, money flows, and unwritten rules — before you decide to enter it.
Proof people actually hurt — verbatim complaints mined from reviews and forums, search and hiring signals, and what they already pay to make the pain stop.
Everyone already fighting for this money — features, pricing, positioning, and traction compared, their customers' complaints mined, and the gaps nobody covers.
Bottom-up sizing with the arithmetic shown, growth read from primary signals, and the why-now case argued both ways — no analyst-deck TAM theater.
How to enter and be understood — the beachhead customer, the against-what frame, the category call, and message options tested against real competitor language.
Why this survives contact with incumbents and arithmetic — monetization options, napkin unit economics, defensibility paths, and the kill risks named out loud.
The decider. Reads every venture report at this root, scores the candidate against bars set before scoring, and rules go, pivot, or kill — reasoning shown.
