The flame check
How well tested is your idea?
Eight questions against the public Roast Rating Standard, and one about what is at stake. Sixty seconds. You get a rating from 0 to 5 flames, the level it puts you on, and the one step that earns the next flame. No account, nothing stored until you ask us to send it.
The scale it uses
0 flames Untested belief. An idea exists.
1 flame Problem named: a specific buyer, a specific pain, and the way it most likely dies.
2 flames Survived the roast: the fatal flaw has an answer and the assumptions are written down.
3 flames Receipts checked: prices, rivals and market size against dated sources.
4 flames Tested: a pass mark set before the test, the test run, the result logged.
5 flames Proven: strangers paid a price that could sustain the business.
The rating grades how well tested a decision is, not whether it will succeed. A Kill with 4 flames is a good result. Read the Standard.
