Run honest product-market fit self-check

Evaluate product-market fit with structured 6-question rubric

When a team asks 'do we have PMF?' and you need to give an honest, rubric-backed answer that stands up to VC scrutiny.

• · retention curves by cohort, Sean Ellis survey %, organic acquisition %, customer telemetry

• · PMF score (0–6), stage 06 rubric ratings, failure-mode diagnosis, routing to next step

Team has measured retention, run Sean Ellis survey in narrow who, tracked organic %

• · User self-rates dimensions instead of citing behavioral evidence
• · Confuses revenue growth with PMF (acquired customers with leaky retention)
• · Stops at 4–5/6 and claims PMF without finding over-performing slice

• · 6-question self-check forces specific metrics (Sean Ellis ≥40%, retention flattening, organic ≥40%)
• · Pushes back on vanity metrics and wishful interpretation
• · Routes to pivot-coach on failure diagnosis
