Template · one page
Lean Canvas
Ash Maurya · leanfoundry.com Freemium Beginner
A one page template that forces you to write down the problem, the customer, and why you are placed to solve it, all on a single sheet you can revise fast. Filling it in surfaces the weak spots in your idea quickly, especially whether the customer group is reachable and the problem is specific. Use it as a scoring sheet for a new idea rather than a formal business plan.
- Forces problem and customer to the front, ahead of the solution
- One page makes gaps and hand-waving in your idea obvious
- Cheap to redo, so you can compare several ideas side by side
