Product Hypothesis Generator

Transform validated pain points into concrete product hypotheses with differentiation angles, value propositions, and MVP scope definitions.

What You Get

Generate 4-5 distinct product concepts from validated pain points, each with unique positioning, realistic MVP scope, and testable assumptions—avoiding generic 'me too' products.

The Problem

Product researchers doing audience-first research struggle with generating product hypotheses from audience insights because the leap from 'this audience has problem X' to 'they would pay for solution Y' is non-obvious, which causes them to either propose generic solutions or miss innovative angles. The difference between a successful and failed product is often not the pain point selection but the solution design. Generic 'me too' products struggle to acquire users even when addressing real pain.

The Solution

This skill transforms validated pain points into concrete product hypotheses with differentiation angles. It bridges the gap between 'I know the problem' and 'I know what to build.' The skill applies structured product thinking to map solution spaces, analyze competitive gaps, generate 4-5 diverse hypotheses, define MVPs scoped for < 3 months build time, surface testable assumptions, assess risks, and recommend a starting point. Each hypothesis includes a product concept, value proposition, differentiation angle vs. existing solutions, target customer segment, MVP scope with features and pricing, 3-5 testable assumptions, and major risk factors.

How It Works

  1. 1 Analyze the validated pain point structure: extract core problem, target audience, evidence quality, existing solution landscape, and economic indicators
  2. 2 Map solution categories: identify 4-5 distinct approaches (physical products, software, services, hybrid models, information products, marketplaces) to explore
  3. 3 Perform competitive gap analysis: examine what existing solutions do well, what they miss, and where differentiation opportunities exist
  4. 4 Generate detailed product hypotheses: create 4-5 concepts with product descriptions, value propositions, differentiation angles, target customers, MVP scopes, testable assumptions, and risk factors
  5. 5 Structure output report: format complete report with pain point summary, detailed hypotheses with clear separators, and recommendation section
  6. 6 Write recommendation: analyze all hypotheses and recommend starting point based on investment, time to market, revenue model, differentiation strength, and risk profile

What You'll Need

  • Validated pain point with clear problem description (not just an idea)
  • Evidence of the pain (quotes, mentions, urgency indicators)
  • Information about existing solutions and why they're insufficient
  • Target audience description
  • Economic context (willingness to pay, opportunity cost, or market size indicators)
