| Criterion |  Growth Flywheel |  Product Discovery Fake Door Test |  Product Discovery Test Card |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | Growth often breaks down where a reinforcing mechanism builds up too much friction. A Flywheel shows the cycle of value, repetition, and reinforcement meant to sustain growth. | When demand is still unclear, it measures interest in a feature before it is built. It separates real behavior from polite agreement and deliberately keeps build effort small. | The Test Card turns a critical assumption into a testable claim and specifies in advance which result counts as success. |
