The engine
Five steps. One verdict.
The AI walks beside you from raw idea to a founder-grade decision. Each step builds the evidence the next one needs.
01
Intake
We restate your raw idea as a testable hypothesis: problem, audience, solution, assumptions, success metric.
02
Problem
Severity score, urgency read, and the three customer-interview questions you should run this week.
03
Market
Direct, indirect, and substitute competitors mapped — with an honest differentiation test.
04
Feasibility
Skills, budget, time, team. We name the 2025 stack and a micro-launch plan if budget is tight.
05
Verdict
A 6-criteria matrix, top-3 risks, and a clear PERSEVERE / TEST FIRST / PIVOT call with execution path.
After the verdict
A verdict is only the start. Pick your track.
Once your idea has been stress-tested, the Forge points you at the outcome you actually want — build, funding, or the right people.
