💡
Exploration

Starting

You have an idea. Maybe several. You need to explore, validate, and think clearly - not collect tools.

For you if: You're exploring ideas and haven't committed to one yet
Optimises for: Momentum and clarity over perfection
Skip if: You already know exactly what to build

Shipping

Building

You know what to build. Now you need tools that help you ship, not tools that help you plan or dream.

For you if: You've validated an idea and need to make it real
Optimises for: Shipping speed with a production-ready foundation
Skip if: You change direction daily or haven't picked an idea

Scaling

Growing

You have users. Real ones. Now you need to understand behavior, catch issues, and build systems that scale.

For you if: You have real users and need to understand their behaviour
Optimises for: Reliability, insight, and sustainable systems
Skip if: You don't have paying users yet

Clarity

Simplifying

You've accumulated too much. Time to cut, consolidate, and regain clarity. Less tools, more focus.

For you if: You have tool overlap, context switching fatigue, or maintenance debt
Optimises for: Clarity and reduction - fewer tools, deeper use
Skip if: You're still building your first product
