What it does

Generates concrete solution directions from a focus or a How Might We question. The output is meant to be a starting point you argue with, not a shortlist.

When to reach for it

After synthesis, when findings need to become options. Or when a team has been circling the same three ideas and needs volume to break the pattern.

⚠ What it is not

Not a stack of one-liners: one run asks for five to eight ideas, each described in one to three sentences, where a Brainstorming round appends five to ten short ones on top of the last. A re-run replaces every idea you did not lock or edit, rather than adding a layer on top. Reach for Crazy 8s instead when the discipline of exactly eight panels is the point.

What it feeds

Crazy 8s for sketching, Kano or MVP for narrowing, Wireframes for making one real.
