Informly (informly.ai) platform help — an AI startup-idea validation and pre-launch report generator that turns one idea description into a single 75+ page PDF: a viability score plus ~11 reports (idea validation, MVP roadmap, landing-page blueprint, marketing and sales strategy, competitive positioning, pitch deck, fundraising navigator, pivot playbook) built with real-time Google Search data, plus an AI business-advisor chat. Priced per report — a one-time purchase, no subscription, no credits — so each new idea is a fresh purchase. Use when running an idea through Informly, interpreting its viability score, understanding the per-report pricing, getting the reports out (PDF-only), or asking whether it has an API to export or automate reports. Note: UI-only, NO documented public API, no webhooks, no Zapier. Do NOT use for the tool-agnostic validate-before-building method or comparing idea validators across the market (use /sales-idea-validation), or building the smoke-test landing page (use /sales-funnel).

Informly Platform Help
Informly (informly.ai; the product runs at validator.informly.ai) is an AI startup-idea validation
and pre-launch report generator. You paste one freeform description of your idea and it returns a
single 75+ page PDF — a viability score plus a suite of ~11 reports (idea validation, MVP
roadmap, landing-page blueprint, marketing/sales strategy, competitive positioning, pitch deck,
fundraising navigator, pivot playbook, customer discovery), organized as Ideate → Validate → Plan
and grounded with real-time Google Search data. It also offers an AI business-advisor chat
(marketing, finance, sales, tech, fundraising, ops). Pricing is per report — $29.99 one-time, no
subscription, no credits — so each new idea is a fresh purchase. It's a fast idea-analysis tool and
document generator — not a substitute for real demand validation — and it has no documented
public API (a UI tool; PDF export only).
Step 1 — Gather context
If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated platform knowledge.
Ask only what you can't infer:
What do you want from Informly?
A) Run an idea through it and interpret the viability score / the report
B) Understand the pricing — $29.99 per report, one-time, and what a report includes
C) Use its downstream reports (MVP roadmap, landing page, marketing/sales, pitch deck, fundraising)
D) Get the report out or automate it (export / API reality)
What's the real question — "is this idea worth building?" or "how do I use this tool?" If it's
the go/no-go decision, that's /sales-idea-validation (a report is not demand) — route in Step 2.
Skip-ahead: if the user wants the validate-before-building method or to compare validators across
the market, that's a /sales-idea-validation question — route immediately.
Step 2 — Route or answer directly
If the user's question is about…
Route to
The validate-before-building method, or the go/no-go decision itself
/sales-idea-validation {question}
Comparing Informly against other AI validators (Validator AI, IdeaProof, DimeADozen…)
/sales-idea-validation {question}
Building the smoke-test / fake-door landing page to test real demand
/sales-funnel {question}
Growing a pre-launch waitlist / capturing real demand
/sales-audience-growth {question}
Turning the report's marketing/sales sections into a real content program
/sales-content {question}
When routing, give the exact command: "This is a {domain} question — run: /sales-idea-validation {original question}"
Otherwise, answer Informly-specific questions using Step 3.
Step 3 — Informly platform reference
Read references/platform-guide.md for the full reference — the report lineup and what each
section produces, the per-report $29.99 pricing and what a purchase includes, how the viability score
is built (and why an AI report reads optimistic), the real-time Google Search data pipeline, the AI
business-advisor chat, and the no-public-API automation reality (PDF export only).
Answer using only the relevant section — don't dump the full reference.
Step 4 — Actionable guidance
Treat the viability score and report as a directional gut check, not demand. The report is an
LLM opinion from a single freeform prompt, grounded with live web search but still generated;
independent reviewers note Informly gives no independent scoring rubric and its action plans
assume the idea should proceed ("assumes Go, not No-Go"). Tell the user to keep the structured
outputs (competitor/positioning sections, risks, the MVP-roadmap and customer-discovery prompts) to
sharpen the pitch, and take the go/no-go from real behavior — a smoke test or pre-sale — not from
the report. Route the real test to /sales-idea-validation.
Read the sourcing and the page count critically. Reports lean on real-time Google Search, but the
market-size and financial numbers are still AI estimates — tell the user to verify them against
primary sources before quoting them, and note the "45+ vs 75+ pages" claim is marketed
inconsistently, so judge it by usefulness, not length. A longer PDF is not more validation.
Budget per idea, not per month. Pricing is $29.99 per report, one-time — no subscription, no
credits — so every new idea (and every re-run after a pivot) is a fresh $29.99 purchase. Have
the user finalize the idea framing before buying so they don't pay again to fix a thin input, and note
the 7-day satisfaction guarantee allows a refund + re-generation (capped, ~2 uses). Prices move —
tell the user to confirm the current price on informly.ai.
Use it for starter drafts, then replace them with tested ones. The MVP roadmap, landing-page
blueprint, marketing/sales strategy, and pitch deck are fast first drafts — fine to launch a smoke
test with, but the copy and positioning that survive are the ones that convert. Push real
ad/landing testing to /sales-content and /sales-funnel; don't treat the generated plan as a
finished GTM. The AI business-advisor chat is a brainstorming aid, not an accountable advisor.
There's no public API — don't plan an integration around it. If asked to automate or export, say
plainly there's no documented public API, no webhooks, no Zapier/Make, no MCP — it's a UI tool
that outputs a PDF only. Give the user the two workable fallbacks: (1) download the PDF and
parse/extract it yourself if you need the text elsewhere, and (2) use a tool built for
programmatic validation if you need it scripted. Then point out the thing actually worth automating
is the real signal (landing-page conversions), not the generated report — route that real test to
/sales-idea-validation (decision) and /sales-funnel (build the page).
If you discover a gotcha or tip not in references/learnings.md, append it there with today's date.
Gotchas
Best-effort from research (2026-07) — Informly's pricing, report lineup, and page counts move; verify at informly.ai.
The report reads optimistic and is not demand. A single freeform prompt with no independent
scoring rubric, and action plans that assume the idea proceeds — a polished report validates nothing;
follow it with a real-behavior test (smoke test / pre-sale).
Page count is marketed inconsistently (45+ vs 75+). Judge the report by usefulness, not length —
a longer PDF is padding, not more evidence.
Priced per report, not per month. $29.99 one-time buys one idea's report; no subscription and no
credits, so every new idea and every post-pivot re-run is another $29.99.
Market-size / financial numbers are AI estimates. Real-time Google Search grounds the text, but
the figures still need verifying against primary sources before you quote them.
No documented public API, no webhooks, no Zapier/Make/MCP. It's a web tool that exports a PDF
only — you can't script or batch it; download and parse the PDF if you need the data elsewhere.
Thin independent review presence. Few third-party reviews (Reddit/Trustpilot/G2) and the company
is registered in Anguilla while operated from Melbourne — weigh marketing claims accordingly.

Examples
Example 1: "Informly scored my idea well and gave me a 75-page report — should I build it?"
User says: "Informly gave my idea a good viability score and a huge report. Is it validated?"
Skill does: Explains the report is an LLM opinion from one freeform prompt with no independent
scoring rubric — and that its plans assume the idea proceeds, so it reads optimistic and validates
nothing on its own. Tells the user to keep the competitor/positioning, risks, and customer-discovery
prompts to sharpen the pitch, then route the real go/no-go to /sales-idea-validation — a smoke test or
pre-sale where a stranger takes an action — rather than trusting the report or its length.
Result: The founder gets real demand signal before building, using Informly's structure, not its verdict.
Example 2: How does Informly's pricing actually work?
User says: "Is Informly a subscription? I want to validate a few different ideas."
Skill does: Explains pricing is $29.99 per report, one-time — no subscription and no credits — so
each of several ideas is a separate $29.99 purchase, and every post-pivot re-run costs again. Advises
finalizing each idea's framing before buying so a thin input isn't paid for twice, notes the 7-day
satisfaction guarantee allows a refund + re-generation (capped), and to confirm the current price on
informly.ai since pricing moves.
Result: The user budgets per idea and avoids re-buying to fix a rushed input.
Example 3: Can I export or automate Informly reports? (developer/automation)
User says: "I want to run 20 ideas through Informly and pull the reports into a database via API."
Skill does: States plainly there's no documented public API, no webhooks, no Zapier/Make, no MCP
— it's a UI tool that outputs a PDF only, so there's no supported way to batch or export
programmatically. Suggests downloading and parsing the PDF, or using a tool built for programmatic
validation, and notes the thing worth automating is a real demand signal (landing-page conversions),
not a generated report — pointing to /sales-idea-validation and /sales-funnel.
Result: The user avoids building on a non-existent API and picks a workable path.
Troubleshooting
The report seems glowing / it never tells me not to build
Symptom: The viability score is high and every section assumes the idea should proceed.
Cause: The report is a single-prompt LLM opinion with no independent scoring rubric; reviewers note
it "assumes Go, not No-Go" — it pattern-matches to encouragement.
Solution: Stop treating the report as the decision. Keep the structured outputs (competitors, risks,
positioning, customer-discovery prompts) and run a real demand test — smoke test or pre-sale — via
/sales-idea-validation.
The market-size / financial numbers don't have clear sources
Symptom: TAM/market and projections are stated with few clickable citations.
Cause: Reports use real-time Google Search for context, but the figures are largely AI-generated
estimates.
Solution: Treat the numbers as hypotheses to verify against primary sources (Statista, Crunchbase,
your own bottom-up math) before quoting them in a plan or pitch.
I want an API or a way to export/automate
Symptom: Want to script Informly or pull reports into another system.
Cause: Informly has no documented public API, webhooks, or iPaaS connectors; it's a web tool that
outputs a PDF only.
Solution: Download and parse the PDF, or use a tool intended for programmatic use; automate a real
demand signal (landing-page analytics) instead. See /sales-idea-validation.
I paid $29.99 but want to validate a different idea now
Symptom: Expected ongoing access after paying; a second idea asks for payment again.
Cause: Informly is priced per report — one-time, no subscription, no credits — so each idea is a
separate purchase.
Solution: Finalize each idea's framing before buying, use the 7-day satisfaction guarantee
(refund + re-generation, capped) if a report is off, and confirm the current per-report price on
informly.ai.
