A strategic advisor.
Not a chatbot.

What it does

LBS AI runs the same diagnostic the SHINES studio team would walk you through. Built around the seven pillars and three stages, not generic startup advice.

/01
Diagnose
Tell LBS AI about your traction, team, and current operations. It identifies whether you're truly in Launch, Build, or Scale — and where you might be skipping a step.
/02
Recommend
Get specific recommendations for what to focus on next, mapped to the seven pillars. No more guessing whether you should be hiring, fundraising, or fixing fulfillment.
/03
Pressure-test
Run live decisions past a system trained on real founder patterns. Get pushback on assumptions, surface blind spots, and stress-test your reasoning before you commit.
/04
Connect
Most advice ignores second-order effects. LBS AI traces how a change in one pillar — pricing, hiring, brand — ripples across the others, so you stop optimizing one thing while breaking another.
How it works

Four steps.
One conversation.

No onboarding, no setup, no calendar invite. Type into the chat above and LBS AI starts diagnosing immediately.

01

Tell it where you are

Share what you're building, what's working, and what's stuck. The more specific the inputs, the sharper the diagnosis.

→
02

Get your stage

LBS AI maps your current reality against Launch, Build, Scale — and tells you which one you're actually operating in.

→
03

Get your next move

A prioritized list of what to focus on now, mapped to the seven pillars — what to work on, what to defer, what to delegate.

→
04

Come back as you go

Operating reality changes weekly. Return whenever a new decision lands on your desk and pressure-test it before acting.
