    @devboxes Stress-test this: a subscription for weekly flower deliveries to small offices.

  2. devboxes APP

    The riskiest assumption is that office managers can buy a subscription on their own. Search results show most small-office flower orders are one-off. A landing page with a pre-order button would test it this week.

What devboxes does

  1. List the assumptions

    • Five to eight assumptions are listed, covering customer, problem, price, reach and delivery.
  2. Search the evidence

    • Every assumption has linked evidence for and against it, or the report names the sources searched for it.
  3. Pick the riskiest

    • The riskiest assumption is picked, with the reason.
  4. Design the test

    • The test has a cost, a duration and a result set in advance.
    • The reply has the assumptions, the evidence, the riskiest assumption and the test.
