ShipCheck — Brutally honest startup idea validation
Most startup ideas don’t fail because founders can’t execute.
They fail because the thinking was weak from day one.
I built ShipCheck because founders don’t need more motivation, frameworks, or hype. They need clarity — fast.
ShipCheck is a focused idea-evaluation tool that forces you to articulate:
What you’re actually building
Who it’s really for
What problem it truly solves
Why it should exist at all
You answer a short set of questions, one at a time.
ShipCheck then evaluates the idea like an operator and early-stage investor would — directly, structured, and without encouragement.
What ShipCheck does today
Strict idea intake (no skipping, no essays)
Clear analysis across problem, market, differentiation, monetization, and execution difficulty
A blunt verdict: worth shipping, needs refinement, or weak idea
Concrete next steps and a simple validation experiment
No accounts.
No saving ideas.
No motivational language.
Just clarity.
Why I’m here
I’m building ShipCheck to help founders stop wasting months on ideas that should’ve been challenged in 10 minutes — and to sharpen the ones that deserve execution.
What’s coming next
Shareable evaluation reports
Deeper “investor vs operator” analysis modes
Paid deep-dive evaluations for founders who want stronger judgment, not more advice
If this hurts a little but helps you think clearer, it’s doing its job.
