About

IdeaGrit has four different workflows depending on what you're building — SaaS, physical/local business, service & consulting, or course/education. Each one generates a set of predefined cards covering what actually matters for that category.It surfaces red flags, blind spots, and weak assumptions. It scores the strength of the idea, shows a detailed report, provides an actionable roadmap, and runs a pre-mortem by comparing the idea with six failed products that share similar patterns.Users can also refine specific red flags. After evaluation, the score and red flags may improve or downgrade depending on whether the core risks have been meaningfully addressed.IdeaGrit is not built to simply encourage your idea. It is built to pressure-test it before you commit months of time, money, and energy to building the wrong thing.

predefined cards = hardcoded decision trees. what framework powers the actual logic?

four workflows before proving one works is scope creep

what stops ppl from just using free lean canvas templates instead

just a rigid lean canvas wrapper. wheres the actual validation logic.

predefined cards seem way too rigid for real idea validation.
