The problem it solves

Deciding whether a new business idea is worth pursuing usually means gut feel or hours of manual research spread across feasibility, market value, and risk. You want a consistent way to screen ideas before committing real time to them.

Who it fits

Founders, innovation teams, and consultants who need to quickly screen and prioritize new business ideas.

How it works

  1. You submit a news article or topic through a form.
  2. AI generates several startup ideas from it and breaks each into strategic project milestones.
  3. Each idea is scored across technical feasibility, business value, and risk.
  4. A go, wait, or no-go verdict is calculated from the combined score.
  5. An interactive report is generated and published for your team to review.
What you get

Ideas ranked before you spend time on them

You get a scored shortlist of startup ideas with a clear go or no-go verdict for your team to review.

What you get

A scored, published report of startup ideas with a clear go, wait, or no-go verdict for each.

What you need

An OpenAI API key, a Google account for Sheets, and a GitHub account to publish reports.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
