How Verifex Evaluates Startup Ideas
Verifex is an AI-powered validation platform that helps founders evaluate whether a startup idea is worth building — before committing months of execution.
Methodology Summary
Verifex's validation process consists of three key agents:
- The Hunter: Scours the web for competitor data, market signals, and demand evidence.
- The Analyst: Synthesizes data into structured insights, identifying risks and opportunities.
- The Skeptic: rigorous challenges every assumption to prevent false positives.
This multi-agent system ensures a balanced, unbiased verdict on your startup idea.
Why Idea Validation Fails for Most Founders
Most founders rely on methods that feel reassuring but fail to test assumptions rigorously:
Verifex exists to replace optimism with structured reasoning.
The Verifex Methodology
Structured Idea Framing
You begin by articulating your idea using a guided framework that forces clarity on who the user is, what problem exists, and why this solution exists now. This prevents vague, narrative-driven ideas from slipping through.
Canonical Question System
Every idea is evaluated using a fixed canonical question tree spanning problem reality, demand signals, competition, differentiation, and execution risk. Up to 60+ structured questions are evaluated depending on report depth.
Multi-Agent Analysis
Verifex uses 17 specialized AI agents, each focused on a specific dimension of viability (problem, demand, pricing, etc). Each agent evaluates independently to reduce single-model bias.
Dual-Score Architecture
We separate Idea Strength (intrinsic quality assuming competent execution) from Validation Confidence (strength of evidence provided). This ensures good ideas aren't rejected early—and weak ideas aren't falsely validated.
Verdict & Guidance
Every report ends with a clear verdict: Build, Build with Conditions, or Do Not Build (Yet), along with explanation and guidance on what to validate next.
