# AI tools for founders

Founders switch between customer conversations, rough budgets and unfinished product pages. Turn one idea into a small test with a real customer before treating a polished plan as evidence of demand.

## Before using AI at work

Does a polished pitch prove the idea will work?

No; use conversations, observed behavior and small tests to challenge the assumptions.

Can AI estimate my market size?

Treat suggested figures as leads to verify, with clear definitions and sources.

When should I build a website?

Start when you know the service and next customer action well enough to explain them accurately.

Should I enter investor or customer details?

Use anonymized planning information unless the tool and account are approved for those records.

## Test the assumptions in your service idea

1. ### Expose the assumptions in the service idea  
Draft a one-page plan for \[business idea\] with assumptions about customers, equipment and operating hours.

3. ### Learn from potential customers first  
Example: Talk to three cyclists about their last repair problem and revise the plan based on what they actually say.
