What problem does it solve?
Idea-refine helps you sharpen a rough idea into a concrete, testable product concept by clarifying the target user, stress-testing assumptions, and converging on a direction worth building.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Divergent expansion (Understand & Expand): Restates your idea into a clear “How Might We” framing, then generates 5–8 meaningful variations driven by lenses like inversion, constraint removal, and simplification.
- Convergent evaluation (Evaluate & Converge): Clusters resonant options into 2–3 distinct directions and stress-tests them for user value, feasibility, and differentiation, including explicit hidden-assumption auditing.
- Actionable output (Sharpen & Ship): Produces a markdown one-pager with problem statement, recommended direction, key assumptions to validate, MVP scope, a deliberate “Not Doing (and Why)” list, and open questions—then optionally saves it to docs/ideas.
Quick Start
Invoke idea-refine with your raw idea (for example, “Help me refine this idea: [your idea]”) and answer the first set of questions about who it’s for and what success looks like.
