Lean CPTO HQ Play the free game
Coming soon · Pro

Play it with your own startup

Describe your real idea. Get twelve weeks of scenarios built around your customer, your risks and your stage, with Matt as a mentor you can ask. Finish with a lean plan you can actually run.

The free game teaches the moves on four made-up startups. Pro puts your own startup through the same twelve weeks.

What you get

Your startup

A quick intake turns your idea into a game profile: your customer, your three biggest risks, your burn.

12 tailored weeks

The same sprints, case files, curveballs and verdicts, but every call is about your business.

Ask Matt

Stuck on a call? Ask Matt, your Lean CPTO, a few questions every week.

Your lean plan

Your riskiest assumptions, 4 weeks of experiments with pass or fail lines, an interview script and a pricing test, emailed to you.

How it works

  1. Tell Matt what you're building, for whom, and what worries you most.
  2. Play the first two weeks free with your own startup.
  3. Unlock the full twelve weeks, Demo Day and your personalised lean plan.
  4. Strong finishers get an invitation to book a session with Matt.

Questions

When does Pro open?

The waitlist goes first, in small groups, so every early plan gets Matt's attention. Joining is free and doesn't commit you to anything.

Is my idea private?

Yes. It's used only to build your run and your plan, never shared or used to train AI, and deleted on request. Details in the privacy policy.

Is this advice?

It's a learning tool based on lean product practice, not legal, financial or investment advice. See the terms.

Can I still play for free?

Always. The 12-Week Accelerator stays free, with the weekly challenge and leaderboard.
