Choose what to get done
Build an AI Coding Session Brief and Context File
The founder gets a structured session-brief template plus a populated project-context document so each AI coding session executes against fixed architectural guardrails and logs what it changed, preventing the compounding drift the book warns about.
Build an Enterprise Procurement Readiness Gap Register
The founder gets a structured procurement-readiness register that lists each expected enterprise artifact (docs, SLAs, support infra, controls), its present/partial/missing status, and a remediation order, so the work to satisfy a procurement review is sequenced before the contract stalls on it.
Build an MVP Scope Boundary Contract
The founder gets a structured scope contract that locks the MVP boundary in advance, so zero-friction scope creep is gated by a written evidence test for every excluded feature rather than founder enthusiasm.
Build Founder Equity Contribution-Factor Ledger
A structured ledger that records, per founder, each equity-adjustment factor applied (initiator, idea, beachhead, CEO, full-time, reputation, cash), the points added, and a justification, ending in final share counts and ownership percentages, so the split is defensible line by line.
Build Startup Compliance Obligation Register
A founder-acting-as-CFO receives a structured register of recurring compliance obligations across corporate, tax, contract, IP, and employment law, each with a cadence and due date, so nothing lapses.
Business model canvas
A nine-box business model canvas where every box is a falsifiable hypothesis with a pass/fail test, plus a market-size note, so you know what to test first.
Buyer interview signal scoring for a burning problem
Each problem and solution averaged, banded, and flagged against the burning-problem and likely-adopted bars.
Candidate work-sample assignment spec
A ready-to-send work-sample assignment with a fixed time box, deliverable definition, and a weighted scoring rubric.
Cash-flow watch register
A structured cash-flow watch register listing the cash metrics to track (cash balance, net burn, runway months, revenue), each with a current value, an alert threshold, a direction, and an accountable owner, so cash flow is monitored obsessively rather than discovered too late.
Classify an Innovation with the Three Disruption Litmus Tests
A deterministic function that takes the five disruption-test answers for an innovation and returns its disruption class (new-market, low-end, both, sustaining, or not-disruptable) plus which tests it passed, exactly per Christensen's three litmus tests.
Classify Capital Character: Patient/Impatient for Growth vs Profit
A deterministic function mapping a venture's funding terms onto Christensen's two-axis capital-character model and returning whether the capital is good or bad for a new-market disruption, with the quadrant label.
Classify Startup Growth-Engine Fit (Viral / Sticky / Paid)
A founder receives a structured engine-fit assessment that pins each of the three Lean-Startup growth engines to a pass/fail gate on its driving metric and names the recommended primary engine.
