Step 1
Map your product in plain language
Describe users, jobs-to-be-done, and constraints. No template wrestling.
Reduce rework before coding starts
From messy product thought to build-ready backend spec
Most teams lose time and money because they jump into coding with unclear backend scope. Idea turns rough ideas into a structured `idea.md` with entities, endpoints, auth rules, and implementation notes your team and AI tools can execute on.
How onboarding works
Step 2
Answer high-signal architect prompts
Idea asks only backend-critical questions so you avoid random token drift.
Step 3
Ship with a concrete `idea.md`
Hand your team and coding assistants one source of truth before implementation.
Why this actually helps
This onboarding flow is designed to de-risk backend builds before implementation. Stronger requirements and clearer flow decisions reduce avoidable project churn.
