Founder stage · the source of truth
Stage 2: Pre Seed
Plan the sprint, ship the product and use AI workflows so a small team moves like a large one.
Current challenges
- MVP is live but traction is still thin
- Investor narrative not yet sharp enough for a first raise
- Go to market is founder led and unrepeatable
Recommended support
Recommended next milestone
Pitch deck v2 and three design partners in the pipeline

Founder journey
You are 5 stages in and currently building.
What's happening now
Full brief →Validate the pain, not the pitch
Current objective
Run five problem-discovery interviews with clinic operators before shipping v2.
Why this matters
You are building for a segment you have not validated yet, so this de-risks the next six weeks.
Expected outcome
A clear ICP, three validated pain points and one committed design partner.
Estimated completion
6 days · aligned with the Sprint 2 review
Current blockers
Only 2 of 5 interviews are confirmed. You need warm intros to clinic operators in EMEA.
Recommended next action
Ask the AI Coach to draft outreach and book 3 intros via the Product Powerhouse Pod.

Hi Maya. I noticed you have spent three weeks building but have not spoken to customers yet. Most founders get stuck here.
I recommend:
- Customer Discovery Sprint
- GTM Clinic
- Validation Template
