Know what to build.
Before you invest time or money building an MVP, START helps you validate your idea, understand your customers and create the blueprint for a product people will actually want.
The quality of your MVP depends on the quality of the thinking that comes before it.
AI can build almost anything. It can't tell you whether you should build it.
Tools like Lovable and Replit have made building cheap. The scarce thing now is knowing what to build. START gives you the clarity AI can't — so when you do build, you build the right thing.
You'll leave START with your Founder Pack.
Not notes from a workshop — a tangible blueprint for a product people will pay for.
