FAQPage Schema

How do I stress-test a plan before implementation?▼

Start a grilling session and present your plan or design. The AI interviews you with persistent, probing questions that expose weak assumptions, unexamined trade-offs, and gaps in reasoning before you commit to execution.

What is a grilling session for design review?▼

A grilling session is a structured adversarial interview where the AI relentlessly questions your design decisions. It simulates the pressure of a tough review board, forcing you to defend or revise each choice.

Can I use this for non-technical plans like business proposals?▼

Yes. The interview format works for any plan or design, including business proposals, project roadmaps, and product strategies. The questioning adapts to whatever material you present.

When should I not use an adversarial plan review?▼

Avoid it when you need generative brainstorming or encouragement for early-stage ideas, since relentless questioning can shut down fragile concepts. Use it once a plan is concrete enough to defend.
