The Mom Test

The Mom Test is a customer-discovery framework for evaluating product ideas through evidence of actual behavior. It emphasizes asking about specific past problems, actions, workarounds, and their costs rather than asking whether someone would use a proposed solution, which tends to produce compliments and speculation.
