Startup idea generator that argues back

The founder's real job description is making close calls without a room to argue with: which segment, which pivot, which feature, which name, what to cut. Cofounders sleep, advisors bill by the fortnight, and the group chat says "both good!" Brainstorming for founders is not a workshop problem; it is a sparring problem.

Brainstormer spars. State the decision the way you would to a smart friend and the wall diverges into directions you were not circling, each tagged with its angle. Seed it with the plan you already half-believe and yes-and mode strengthens it while the Six Hats lens files the risks you were avoiding. Then converge: clusters, scores, one pick with reasons you can re-read at 2am.

Validate a direction: run the challenge "should we go upmarket" and watch the wall argue both sides before scoring. Name things: the naming scenario generates candidates by mechanism (craft words, coined words, found language) like a idea generator pointed at brand. Pivot options: reverse brainstorming ("how would we kill this company") surfaces the threats that become the pivot list; the method is in our reverse brainstorming guide. Retention, positioning, pricing experiments: one challenge each, ten minutes each.

Pro is $39 per month billed yearly: less than one hour of any advisor, coach or contractor you would otherwise think out loud at. It does not know your market (nothing does but you); it makes your thinking wider and your decision faster, and your challenges stay private and untrained-on.

Run the churn scenario in the studio above, the one founders use most, then get started.
