About this template
A structured place to run the daily idea-writing habit properly: one entry per idea, tagged as scratch-your-own-itch, address-a-niche or improve-existing, reviewed weekly rather than judged on the spot.
Who it's for
Founders and would-be founders building a repeatable idea-generation habit, before they have a specific idea to assess.
When to use it
Use daily, alongside or instead of the Tool, once you want to build the idea-generation habit rather than get a single direction.
When not to use it
Not useful once you already have a specific idea in mind — go straight to Product Idea Assessor instead.
