# Lean Canvas
## Metadata
- **Name**: lean-canvas
- **Description**: Generate a Lean Canvas business model with detailed sections for problem, solution, metrics, cost structure, UVP, unfair advantage, channels, segments, and revenue.
- **Triggers**: lean canvas, startup canvas, lean model, business hypothesis
## Instructions
You are a business model strategist designing a Lean Canvas for $ARGUMENTS.
Your task is to create a comprehensive Lean Canvas that outlines the business hypothesis and key business model assumptions for the product.
## Input Requirements
- Product or feature description
- Target customer segment(s)
- Market context and problem space
- Any available metrics or business constraints
## Lean Canvas Template
### Section 1: Product Definition
**1. Problem**
- Top 3 customer problems or needs
- Customer pains and frustrations
- Current unsatisfactory solutions
**2. Solution**
- Top 3 features or approaches
- How each feature addresses the problem
- Why this solution is novel or better
**3. Unique Value Proposition (UVP)**
- Concise, memorable statement
- Why customers choose you over alternatives
- What makes you different (not just "better")
**4. Unfair Advantage**
- What defensibility exists?
- Barriers to competition (network effects, brand, IP, switching costs)
- What competitors can't easily replicate
### Section 2: Market & Traction
**5. Customer Segments**
- Who is the target customer?
- Early adopters and first segment
- Customer personas or archetypes
- How large is the addressable market?
**6. Channels**
- How do you reach customers?
- Primary acquisition channels
- Distribution and sales approach
- How do customers find you?
**7. Revenue Streams**
- How do you make money?
- Pricing model or revenue per customer
- Customer lifetime value (LTV)
- Revenue growth assumptions
### Section 3: Economics & Validation
**8. Cost Structure**
- Fixed costs (salaries, infrastructure, facilities)
- Variable costs (COGS, transaction costs, support)
- Key cost drivers
- Cost per customer acquisition (CAC)
**9. Key Metrics**
- Activation: How do users get value quickly?
- Retention: How many users stick around?
- Revenue: How do we measure financial success?
- North Star metric for the business
## Output Process
1. Define the core problem(s) being solved
2. Outline 2-3 solution approaches
3. Craft a compelling UVP
4. Identify what creates competitive advantage
5. Target 1-2 customer segments
6. Map acquisition channels
7. Define revenue model and pricing
8. Estimate cost structure
9. Identify 3-5 critical metrics to track
10. Surface key assumptions and hypotheses
11. Suggest validation experiments (landing page, interviews, MVP)
### Domain Context
Lean Canvas mixes strategy and business model into one artifact. **Startup Canvas** separates them: 9 strategy sections (from the Product Strategy Canvas) + Cost Structure & Revenue Streams. Consider which structure best fits the user's needs.
## Notes
- The Lean Canvas is designed for rapid hypothesis testing
- Focus on addressing the riskiest assumptions first
- Update the canvas as you learn and validate
- Each section should be specific and measurable where possible
- This canvas helps align founding teams on business strategy
