Get the AI-Era Idea Engine Prompt Pack

Y Combinator just dropped its framework for picking a startup idea in the AI era: stop hunting the perfect idea, commit to ONE, go deep enough that you could run your customer's business, and mine every failure for the better idea hiding underneath. This field guide turns that whole framework into 6 copy-paste prompts you can run today with any free AI model — (1) Force the Pick (score your shortlist on curiosity x unfair advantage), (2) Could You Run Their Business (a brutal operator interview + your 20-question customer script), (3) Bottleneck Radar (find the model-edge gap that could become the company), (4) Own the Outcome (verticalize from software to the thing your customer actually wants), (5) 3x More Ambitious (rewrite the idea until it has a moat), and (6) The Post-Mortem (surface the structural problem underneath a failed v1). Each prompt comes with when to use it and what good output looks like.
