Lean Canvas - Capture your idea in 20 minutes versus 20 weeks

Everyone says you need a business plan, but often you don't need more than what Lean Canvas provides.

Pros:

Rapid way to organize your thinking and identify gaps in your idea

Cons:

Exporting/sharing tools for the basic (free) version are limiting.

This is an awesome tool that every startup should use. Not just once, but regularly update your assumptions, as you gain traction. Highly recommended. Thanks @ashmaurya for not just building this, but working tirelessly on getting companies to reach product/market fits.

I've used it since Ash invented it. I've taught it to MBA students for over five years with great success​.

Pros:

Best business model tool for startups. You can quickly outline and begin testing ideas.

Cons:

Perhaps the Unfair Advantage could be renamed Secret​ Sauce.

I've followed Ash for a long time and appreciate his methodology and his thought leadership related to a cleaner and more relevant approach to business planning.

Pros:

simple to visualize

Cons:

N/A for my current uses

We use the lean canvas with every startup we mentor. Thats over 50 startups in the last 2 years

Pros:

simple, practical, easy to write and re-write based on learnings. The go to tool for startups

Cons:

nothing to add here

If you had follow up and steps to apply your strategy it will be a full planning and implementing solution.

Pros:

Clear UI, great calculations for an overview of an startup or a running business.

Cons:

none so far

Don't want to miss it. For early stage startups this is the first step before the business model canvas.

Pros:

Helps focus on critical topics

Cons:

Canvas itself cannot be improved. But it's good to have read Ash's recommendations

This tool is for mapping business model assumptions and then systematically validating those assumptions in sprints. Plus, there is rock-solid training videos in context.

Pros:

Great tool for LEARNING AND PRACTICING lean startup. Rooted in theory + practice. Succinct. Responsive designer.

Cons:

Less useful if you don't follow time-bound sprints.

This is a great tool that truly helps you validate your idea and ask the hard questions.

Pros:

Super easy to use and straightforward

Cons:

Nothing!

be replicated for the content of each country

Pros:

It is helpful and easy to use, provide cross linkage with the components to address the problem statement.

Cons:

nothing I overseen for now
