Domain Context

Startup Canvas vs Business Model Canvas vs Lean Canvas

Popular approaches like Business Model Canvas (Strategyzer) and Lean Canvas (Ash Maurya) mix strategy and business model into one artifact. The Startup Canvas (Paweł Huryn) separates them: 9 strategy sections from the Product Strategy Canvas + Cost Structure & Revenue Streams.

Why not Business Model Canvas?

  • No vision — why should your team wake up every day?
  • No Can't/Won't test — what stops competitors from copying you?
  • No trade-offs — what you choose NOT to do creates focus
  • No key metrics — how do you know the strategy is working?
  • Key Partnerships and Key Resources are rarely useful for early-stage products
