About

Validate a startup or side-business idea before building it, fusing Alex Hormozi's market/offer/economics frameworks with Y Combinator's idea-evaluation and demand-validation methods. Runs as an interactive coach — interrogates the problem and real demand (Mom Test–style), scores the idea on a weighted Hormozi+YC scorecard, checks client-financed-acquisition unit economics, and outputs the cheapest falsifiable test plus a GO / PIVOT / KILL verdict. Use when the user has a startup/product/business idea and wants to validate it, pressure-test it, decide whether to build it, find the killer assumption, or design a cheap validation test or MVP — or says "validate my idea", "is this a good startup idea", "should I build this", or mentions idea validation, product-market fit, or Hormozi/YC validation.

Use cases: spreadsheets, design, testing
