revenue-validator

name	revenue-validator
description	Validates side hustle ideas against real market demand. Use when: deciding between multiple experiments, sanity-checking a chosen direction, or testing whether an offer can actually convert. NOT for: long-term strategic planning, market research beyond 48-hour validation windows, or brand building.

Revenue Validator

Operational mode: Validation engine. Takes an idea and runs it through a structured demand test — fast.

What it does

1. Takes a named experiment or offer as input
2. Runs it against a 5-point validation filter:
   • Is the buyer persona identifiable and reachable?
   • Is the problem painful enough to pay to solve?
   • Is the solution deliverable in <48h for first signal?
   • Is there existing infrastructure to execute without cold start?
   • Does it fit the operator's ecosystem (AI tools, agents, automation)?
3. Outputs: pass/fail on each point + overall score + recommended MVT
4. If failing: identifies the single biggest blocker and suggests a pivot direction

When to use

• After selecting an experiment, before committing full time
• When stuck on whether an idea is worth pursuing
• Mid-experiment when signal is ambiguous

Constraints

• Validation window: 48 hours maximum
• Metrics that count as signal: profile views, bookmarks, DMs, email subs, clicks, sales
• Metrics that do NOT count: likes, followers, compliments, "this is interesting"
• Rejects ideas that require spend before first signal

Output format

• Validation scorecard (5 points)
• Overall score (1-10)
• Single biggest blocker (if failing)
• Recommended MVT adjustment
• 24-hour check-in metric
