# Business Copilot

> Turn an open question into a testable decision and plan

<div dir="ltr" lang="en">
  # IFH Business Copilot

  A workspace for founders and business teams. Choose a pathway, prepare your project context, and use a template to structure an initial decision and a clear next step.

  <Note>Templates are available now. AI chat requires Mintlify assistant activation and verification; it has not been activated by this update.</Note>

  ## Develop a startup idea

  Customer, problem, alternatives, value proposition and first product scope.

  ```text theme={null}
  Market: [ ]. Customer: [ ]. Problem: [ ]. Stage: [ ]. Budget and currency: [ ]. Use the portal framework to identify assumptions, propose a validation experiment, first product scope and a 30-day plan. Ask for missing information; do not assume proven demand.
  ```

  ## Design a revenue model

  Subscription value, service costs, contribution margin and break-even.

  ```text theme={null}
  Product: [ ]. Monthly price per customer: [ ]. Variable cost per customer: [ ]. Monthly fixed costs: [ ]. Currency: [ ]. Calculate contribution margin and break-even, then present scenarios with explicit assumptions. Do not describe estimates as guaranteed profits.
  ```

  ## Choose a technology pathway

  Product requirements, build-or-buy options and vendor evaluation questions.

  ```text theme={null}
  Product: [ ]. Market: [ ]. Expected users: [ ]. Data and integrations: [ ]. Budget and timeline: [ ]. Compare internal development, buying from a vendor and partner integration. Separate confirmed information from questions requiring official verification.
  ```

  ## Prepare a partnership brief

  Value proposition, pilot scope, responsibilities and a draft outreach message.

  ```text theme={null}
  Project: [ ]. Target customer: [ ]. Partner type: [ ]. Value we offer: [ ]. What we need: [ ]. Draft a partnership brief, pilot scope, success measures and outreach message. Do not claim an agreement or send the message.
  ```

  ## What does a useful output look like?

  1. Need summary and missing information
  2. Options and rationale for an initial choice
  3. Assumptions, sources and verification gaps
  4. 30-day plan: task, proposed owner and success measure
  5. Next action or one question that resolves the decision

  ## Worked example: a business subscription

  Illustrative assumptions, not a forecast for your business: monthly price AED 300, variable cost AED 100 per customer, monthly fixed costs AED 6,000. Contribution margin = 300 − 100 = AED 200. Break-even = 6,000 ÷ 200 = 30 customers. At 20 customers the result is −AED 2,000; at 40 it is +AED 2,000, before taxes and omitted costs. Validate customer acquisition costs, retention and collection before relying on the model.

  ## An initial 30-day validation plan

  | Stage | Task |
  | - | - |
  | Week one | Interview potential customers; document the problem, current alternative and willingness to pay. |
  | Week two | Test a clear value proposition and price with a limited prototype. |
  | Week three | Compare technology options and obtain official quotes and partner requirements. |
  | Week four | Review results and decide whether to continue or adapt, using a defined success criterion. |

  Use general descriptions and sample data. Licensing, financing and Sharia decisions require review by relevant authorities and specialists. This pathway does not execute transactions or send messages on your behalf.

  ## Next institutional pathway

  An incubator application preparation assistant: document completeness, inconsistency flags, a reviewer brief and a follow-up draft. Mintlify's documentation chat is distinct from the proposed operational Cloudflare application; neither sends applications or executes financing here.
