Stop guessing which product to build next.
The Discovery Machine is a repeatable system that turns raw ideas into validated product candidates in 2–4 days. Templates, scoring rubrics, and cheap experiments—all in one kit.
This is for you if:
- You're already using AI daily but can't get consistent validation outcomes
- You've shipped before and want a repeatable system, not random prompts
- You're tired of building things nobody wants
- You value evidence over vibes
- You want a 2–4 day validation cycle, not months
This is NOT for you if:
- You've never shipped a product and want magic
- You're looking for a 'make money fast' scheme
- You don't want to do the work—templates don't replace effort
What your product validation looks like right now
Most builders skip validation entirely or do it wrong. Here's what that costs you:
Months spent building features nobody asked for
Random Reddit posts instead of structured research
No kill criteria—you just 'feel' when something is dead
Copying competitors without understanding their wedge
Expensive launches that validate nothing
The same vibes-driven mistakes on repeat
How the Discovery Machine works
A 4-step system that runs in 2–4 days per validation cycle
Mine 5 problem sources
Network, competitor reviews, forums, job posts, marketplaces. Collect raw pain points with evidence links.
Write candidates in 6-line format
Buyer role, trigger event, job-to-be-done, workaround, Week-1 win, wedge type. No fluff.
Score with the 8-category rubric
Pain intensity, buyer can pay, distribution clarity, wedge strength, proof speed, retention loop, build speed, giant risk. Pass threshold: 16/24.
Run the cheapest experiment
Smoke test, fake door, concierge MVP, or Wizard-of-Oz. Numeric kill thresholds tell you when to stop.

Questions
No. It's a complete validation system: templates, scoring rubrics, source playbooks, experiment designs, and kill thresholds. The AI prompt is one component—it helps you run the system faster, but the system works without AI too.
The kit is designed for builders who've shipped at least one thing before. If you've never built a product, start there first. This system assumes you know what 'shipping' means.
No. The operator prompt works with ChatGPT, Claude, or any capable LLM. You can also run the system manually with just the templates.
The templates are designed for B2B/B2C software products. If you're building hardware, physical goods, or regulated industries with unique constraints, you'll need to adapt the rubrics.
Yes. When the system improves, you get the updates. No subscription, no extra charge.
