Financial evidence, kept separate
ARR and MRR are recurring run-rate metrics. Revenue is not net profit; financing and valuation are separate from customer earnings. Missing values are unknown, not zero.

A small, falsifiable pilot
ToolJovia analysis / suggested experiment (D). These steps are not reported founder actions or verified demand.
Mechanism worth testing
D · unverified / analysis As of 2026-10-22ToolJovia research proposal or inference, not a claim about achieved demand, revenue or replication outcomes.
Use a non-sensitive sample from an actual consenting prospect. Agree on expected rows/totals first, compare a manually verified baseline, and request a paid pilot only if the outputs meet the agreed test.
Your pilot workflow
D · unverified / analysis As of 2026-10-22- Collect the actual business question and a synthetic or consented sample.
- Define expected columns, totals and edge cases.
- Use existing local CSV/JSON tools for preparation.
- Export an editable job brief and test log; record pilot outcome.
ToolJovia research proposal or inference, not a claim about achieved demand, revenue or replication outcomes.
Risks and failure conditions
D · unverified / analysis As of 2026-10-22- Incorrect formulas or silent data-quality errors.
- Sensitive spreadsheet uploads and unclear field meanings.
- A rebrand and broader product cannot establish historical growth causes or current margins.
ToolJovia research proposal or inference, not a claim about achieved demand, revenue or replication outcomes.
- Before spending, define an observable buyer action and a deadline in the validation planner.
- Run a small, consented pilot. Record actual review time, rework, replies and payments in your downloaded worksheet.
- Compare observations with your predeclared stop rule. Filling out a plan does not prove demand.
Tools for this mechanism
AI Business Validation Planner
Turn an AI business assumption into an evidence ledger, a bounded pilot and explicit success and stopping rules without an invented earnings score.
AI Client Scope Workbench
Map customer requests to proposed deliverables and acceptance criteria, surface missing boundaries, and calculate an explicit effort assumption.
