Turn a vague idea into a clear market opportunity map you can act on today.

Steps

  1. Open ChatGPT or Claude (free tier is fine) and start a new chat.
  2. Paste Prompt 1 below, replacing the variables in curly braces with your own details.
  3. Read the output, then run Prompt 2 using the top opportunity from Prompt 1 as the input.
  4. Iterate once: pick the weakest assumption from the output and ask the AI to stress-test it.
  5. Copy the final market opportunity map into a Google Doc or Notion page.
  6. Share it with one trusted advisor or co-founder for a 5-minute sanity check before building anything.

Prompts to Use

You are a pragmatic startup analyst. I am a founder exploring a new market. Here is my idea: {idea_description}. My target customer is {target_customer}. My unfair advantage or access is {unfair_advantage}. In under 300 words, identify the 3 most attractive market opportunities within this space. For each, give: (1) a one-line opportunity name, (2) the core customer pain it solves, (3) why now is a good time, (4) the top 2 risks. Use plain language, no hype, and format as a numbered list.
