Creating Your First Validation

Before You Start

Before creating your first validation, take a moment to gather your thoughts about your startup idea. The more clearly you can articulate your concept, the more accurate and useful your validation results will be.

You don't need a fully developed business plan. Even early-stage ideas can be validated effectively if you understand the core problem you're solving and who you're solving it for.

Step-by-Step Process

1 Open Jumpstrt and tap "Validate"

From the home screen, tap the Validate tab at the bottom of the screen to begin.

2 Enter your idea name

Give your startup a working name. This helps you identify it later in your history.

3 Describe the problem you're solving

Clearly explain the pain point or gap in the market. Be specific about who faces this problem.

4 Explain your solution

Describe how your product or service solves the problem. Focus on the unique value you provide.

5 Submit and wait for results

Our AI analyzes your idea across multiple dimensions. Results typically appear within 30 seconds.

Writing an Effective Description

The quality of your validation depends heavily on how well you describe your idea. Here's what to include:

Do Include:

Target audience: Who exactly will use this? (e.g., "small business owners in Tier-2 cities")
Core problem: What specific pain point does this address?
Your solution: How does your product solve this problem?
Key differentiator: Why is your approach better than existing solutions?
Business model: How will you make money? (subscription, commission, etc.)

Avoid:

Vague statements like "it's the Uber of X"
Technical jargon without explanation
Overly long descriptions (aim for 150-300 words)
Assumptions without context

Pro Tip

Think of your description as a 30-second elevator pitch. If you can explain your idea clearly and concisely, our AI can analyze it more accurately.

Understanding Your Results

After submission, you'll receive a validation score from 0-100, along with detailed analysis across four pillars:

Patent & IP: Assesses intellectual property landscape and freedom to operate
Market Potential: Evaluates market size, growth, and timing

Feasibility: Reviews execution complexity and resource requirements

Iterate on your idea based on the insights
Re-validate to see if your score improves
When ready, consider applying to pitch to investors
