Pinpoint Core Growth and Retention Gaps
The founder analyses the scored pillars and evidence register to highlight the primary bottlenecks preventing repeatable growth and high retention. They prioritise these gaps based on their immediate threat to product-market fit and commercial viability.
Completing this action focuses the founder's resources on resolving the most critical systemic failures in their route-to-market engine. It converts broad diagnostic findings into a prioritised list of urgent operational interventions.
The founder must present a Prioritised Gap Analysis identifying the top three to five structural blockers to product-market fit. Each gap must be paired with its root cause analysis and impact assessment on venture runway and growth.
