Purposedifferent | The 5-Minute VC Check clarifies opportunities and strategic options at the earliest idea stage.

The format creates movement without jumping prematurely at the first seemingly elegant answer. | Helps clarify architecture context, options, and consequences in concrete terms. It organizes technical context, alternatives, and consequences. The result is captured as an Annotated Diagram, a Prioritized Risk List, and an Action Backlog. |
