How it works

From idea to verdict.

IdeaCritic compresses what a senior venture analyst would do over a week into a structured 45-second report. Here's exactly what happens.

01

You describe your idea

Submit a title, a description (the more specific the better), your intended target audience, and the business model you're imagining. We use all four to ground the analysis in your reality, not a generic abstraction.

02

We run a 12-section framework

The analyst evaluates: market sizing (TAM/SAM/SOM with reasoning), problem severity, target persona, direct & indirect competition, full SWOT, monetization & unit economics, MVP scope & tech, GTM, ranked risks, and reasons it may not work.

03

You get a verdict and 3 pivots

A 0–100 opportunity score and a verdict: build, pivot, or avoid. If your idea scores below 70, we give you three specific alternative products in the same domain that have stronger market signal.
