Choose what to get done
Defect density per module with ranked hotspots
Defect density per module against your chosen size unit, the overall density, and a ranking of the most defect-dense modules.
Defect removal efficiency
Defect Removal Efficiency from pre-delivery vs escaped defect counts, with an optional per-phase breakdown.
Deploy pipeline and hosting
The app is deployed and the health endpoint returns 200.
Deploy runbook with rollback
An ordered, role-assigned deploy runbook with preflight checks, deploy steps, verification, and a rollback path that every failure step routes to.
Design a cheap parallel channel-test plan with pass/fail thresholds
I get a parallel channel-test plan where every test names one of the 19 canonical traction channels and carries a metric, a small budget, a duration, and a numeric pass threshold, so I can run several cheap experiments at once and read every result the same way.
Design a conjoint analysis attribute/level/profile set
I get a runnable conjoint design: an attribute/level grid that respects the 6-7 attribute ceiling and >=2 levels per attribute, plus choice tasks of valid, non-duplicate profiles built only from those levels.
Diagnose the Fatal Pinch
A pure function that classifies a startup against Paul Graham's fatal-pinch definition: default-dead AND slow growth AND not enough time, returning the overall verdict and which of the three conditions are true.
Financing Deal-Stage Tracker
The founder has a complete, sequenced map of the financing process, split at the term sheet signing and ending at funds received, with every stage named, owner-assigned, and closed by a gating artifact, and a duration roll-up checked against the cap set at intake.
Financing-round closing checklist
A structured closing checklist that echoes your frozen round stage, close date, and raise amounts, covers every closing step you require (a canonical six-step sequence by default), and enforces the minimum-commitment and wire-sequencing gates arithmetically.
Goal decomposed into an executable task plan
A goal broken into ordered, tool-assigned steps with a resolved, acyclic dependency graph, so an agent (or a team) can execute it without ambiguity.
In-House Build-vs-Buy Tendency Scorer
A founder weighing whether to sell an AI capability as a service gets a 0-6 in-house-tendency score and a build/buy verdict per the book's exact criteria, flagging capabilities customers will just build themselves.
Incident response playbook
A severity-tiered response playbook (roles, response targets, escalation, comms) so responders follow a plan instead of debating process mid-outage.
