What problem does it solve?
Helps early-stage founders pressure-test startup ideas by diagnosing whether they’re building something people actually want, and by turning “vague market talk” into user-centered validation.
Core Features & Use Cases
- User demand + PMF check: Evaluates whether users would be upset if the product disappeared, clarifying the gap between assumptions and evidence.
- Actionable startup strategy: Turns hesitation and “too hard” problems into concrete next steps (identify the schlep, talk to users, iterate).
- Founder decision-making frameworks: Applies “default alive vs. default dead,” relentless resourcefulness, and “do things that don’t scale” to guide what to do next.
- Use Case: You have a product idea and suspect it’s promising, but you don’t know if anyone would actually want it enough to pay—this skill helps you design the user conversations and iteration path that reveal PMF (or the lack of it).
Quick Start
Ask for a Paul Graham-style validation plan in Korean for your idea, including who the users are, what to ask them, what evidence would count as PMF, and what the next iteration should be.
