BEFORE THE DECK
A Lean Canvas you write before you write the pitch.
Nine boxes. One page. The first draft, before the polished slides.
Local AI agents that interrogate your idea — never write it for you. Nothing uploads. Nothing trains a model. Nothing remembers you.
For founders writing the canvas before the deck.
What a Lean Canvas does in nine boxes.
A Lean Canvas is a one-page business model — Problem, Solution, Unique Value Proposition, Channels, Customer Segments, Unfair Advantage, Key Metrics, Cost Structure, Revenue Streams. It replaces a 30-page business plan with the nine questions a founder actually has to answer to know if the idea works.
Totally Lean runs the canvas in your browser. No account. No server. The data lives in your local storage. Three local AI agents help you fill it; a 90-second voiced pitch generator turns the canvas into something you can hand to a stranger.
