Startup ideation involves running six forcing questions to surface demand reality and the status quo before building. This process reveals real product constraints, identifies risks, and saves a design doc capturing decisions and next steps for review.
Design-thinking brainstorming for side projects is best run through Builder mode, which guides ideation for learning goals, hackathons, and open-source ideas. It proactively engages when you describe a project and saves a design doc for alignment.
Yes, you can use it before plan reviews or planning meetings to surface risks, opportunities, and a concrete design path. It proactively prompts you when you describe a new product idea or ask whether it's worth building.
This ideation process automatically saves a design doc workflow capturing decisions and next steps for later review and alignment. You receive a concrete design path and a documented record of the brainstorming session outputs.
Design-thinking brainstorming in Builder mode targets side projects, learning goals, hackathons, and open-source ideas. It should not be used for deep technical architecture planning, as it focuses on ideation and saving a design doc rather than implementation logic.
