Preflight Canvas

Preflight Canvas

Guided Lean Canvas workflow—capture assumptions, stress-test, collaborate, and export before major spend.

Move from framing to export with guided prompts for each canvas block, a visual print-friendly layout, collaborator review, a live brief preview with audience lenses, and Markdown or PDF exports that include a dedicated canvas section for planning or fundraising (classic Lean Canvas layout).
