Where it started.
Early ideas often receive broad encouragement without exposing their assumptions. Founders need questions about customer utility, competition and feasibility before investing further effort.
02 / THE APPROACH
Making the problem concrete.
- 01
Capture a short idea or use an example pitch.
- 02
Evaluate it through investor, skeptic, customer and competitor perspectives.
- 03
Run market discovery alongside the persona analysis.
- 04
Expose prompts and structured output through Teach Mode.
03 / THE SOLUTION
A focused workflow.
A Streamlit interface organizes exploratory feedback from four AI personas. The application also provides a command-line entry point and an optional explanation mode for inspecting the process.
- Four contrasting persona responses
- Concurrent market discovery
- Example idea prompts
- Teach Mode with structured-output inspection
04 / TECHNICAL DECISIONS
The choices behind it.
Multiple viewpoints
Distinct prompts explore different concerns instead of presenting one response as a definitive verdict.
Inspectable workflow
Teach Mode exposes prompts and JSON structures to help users understand how the output is produced.
05 / MY CONTRIBUTION
Scope and responsibility.
Developed the prompt engineering pipeline and Streamlit interface, orchestrating multi-persona evaluations and market discovery prompts with structured output inspection.
06 / EVIDENCE & LIMITATIONS
What the evidence shows.
- Feedback provides exploratory perspectives for brainstorming, not binding financial or market validation.
- Requires configured generative AI API access to generate responses.
