Time Machine

Test the pivot before you make it.

Every chapter is a decision point. Time Machine lets you rewind to any chapter, take the alternate path, and run the rest of the pipeline forward, in parallel with your main timeline. Compare the outputs side by side. Pick the one that won.

Path A. Enterprise SaaS

  • TAM: $24B (mid-market + enterprise)
  • Pricing: $25K/year
  • Brand: "Built for the boardroom"
  • Pitch: 18-month sales cycle, $250K ACV

Path B. SMB Self-Serve

  • TAM: $9B (250K SMBs)
  • Pricing: $89/month
  • Brand: "Software that runs your shop"
  • Pitch: PLG, 14-day trial, $1.2K ARPA
Scenario

What if we targeted SMBs instead of enterprise?

Fork chapter 3. See the new market sizing, brand voice, and pricing model run all the way through to a different pitch deck.

Scenario

What if we charged subscription instead of one-time?

Fork chapter 8. Watch unit economics, GTM strategy, and investor narrative reshape themselves through chapters 9–17.

Scenario

What if we shipped mobile-first?

Fork chapter 10.5. The brand, the prototype, the build all change. Compare the App Store path against the web path before you commit.

Three paths

Three pipelines. Three outcomes. One studio.

How it works

4 steps. 15 hours of your time. 1 investor-ready business.

01

Type your idea

Three sentences is enough. Claude asks what matters, you answer in plain language.

02

Chat with chapter experts

17 specialists, each with their own craft. You review, approve, and iterate — never write a prompt.

03

Review deliverables

Every chapter produces a real artifact. You see it rendered, not described. Approve or ask for changes.

04

Own your business

Code. Brand. Pitch deck. Business plan. It's yours. No lock-in, no recurring fees.

15 hours of your time. That's it.
