I LOVE this Denise! You make this so approachable!

I have a hypothesis about how we should be turning our expertise into tools that *give us this kind of data back* - not just PDFs or CustomGPTs where it's a black box and we don't know where people got stuck or what part of the methodology can be improved. We need data!!!!

Can't wait to see the Visibility Momentum Map when you're ready.

I've made a bunch of AI tools (most of them free!) Just because... I get so much out of it and enjoy it and find them useful/helpful and hopefully others do too

I've learned so much from building the tools. And it's fun!

Having worked with you through your own beta testing and on my own very basic app, I think you’ve captured the thinking and the steps beautifully. Maybe the biggest surprise for me has been how the thinking itself has nothing to do with technology…only human nature, your own expertise, and your own knowledge of how you want to help your audience.

And a note about feedback…while some of it may inform you as to an important change, you shouldn’t overlook the fact that the person who gave the feed back may not be your target audience. ;-).

You’re right about target audience. In my case, it was the words I was using vs. the audience. You’ll see when I share the next iteration. 😎

Can’t wait!

One thing worth flagging for anyone trying this: the tools that stick aren't the ones with the most sophisticated logic, they're the ones with the tightest scope. I've seen founders try to cram their entire methodology into v1 and end up with something nobody finishes. Did you scope the Momentum Map down before building, or did that happen through iteration once real users started clicking through it?
