PREMORTEM: AI idea red team. Submit a startup idea. Six AI agents simultaneously try to tear it apart — market, tech, competition, unit economics, and more. A seventh writes the memo.
Before you drop your idea, because of it -> I've tested on few fast growing startups with track record. Red-team still didn't like the pitch. It's not a good judge if proven examples are still worthless to it.
the idea is good to have those kind of things to evaluate ideas but it is but the score is not really clear, if I have 4/10 does it means my idea is 4 out of 10 to build or the red team gives it a 4/10 on the 'do not build it' scale
Fair point, the polarity is easy to misread. The score is how viable the idea looks after the red team (higher is better), not a "do not build" score. I will make that clearer in the UI.
I don’t understand this type of business. It’s basically a set of prompts? Why wouldn’t I just ask Claude to do the same? It can spawn multiple agents and have them red-team any idea

I like the name, and the idea. Not sure 6 AI Agents could give you the feeback that the free market naturally provides. Cool idea though
Sounds like a great way to aggregate a bunch of other people's startup ideas...
Hahaha, I thought about that too, I have to admit, it’s a really great idea

six agents roasting my idea in 90 seconds is way cheaper than pitching it to friends at dinner. any chance of a round two where I get to fight back?
isn't most of this in gstack?
- you know what you should actually build?
- an agent that builds an mvp and auto markets it to get the first 100 customers
- and then measures how long it took, how many people it reached, how many people converted
- and then rates an idea from 1 to 10

Generous take: they've fine-tuned the prompts with some experience
Skeptical take: laundering responsibility
