You have an idea.
You need an
honest verdict.

For founders and business owners who have identified a concrete target customer and want a senior, independent assessment before committing $150k+ to development.

01

First-time founders

You have an idea you believe in, but you are not sure if the market is there, what it will cost, or where to start. Get a grounded, senior perspective before you commit.

Start here →
02

Creators & authority builders

You have an audience - followers, clients, a community - and you want to build a product that monetises it. Understand what it will cost and whether the unit economics hold before you commit.

Start here →
03

Founders raising capital

Preparing to raise capital or bring on co-founders? An independent commercial assessment adds credibility and surfaces the gaps investors will probe before you do.

Start here →

The cost of a wrong
decision is not $497.

Building blind $150k+

Six figures in development, six months in time, and unlimited opportunity cost - for a product the market may not want.

This assessment $497

Know before you commit. The cheapest decision you will make this year - and credited to any subsequent engagement.

A 10-section PDF, a CEO’s Note from our founder, and a clear recommended next step - delivered within 48 hours. The $497 is credited in full toward any subsequent PixelForce engagement.

Sample questions that
actually drive the
assessment.

The form takes 15-20 minutes. Here are three examples of the questions we ask - and why they matter to the scoring.

Your idea · §01
In one sentence, what does your app or platform do?
Write it as if explaining to a 10-year-old…

Avoid jargon. This sets the baseline for the entire assessment - if we cannot summarise it in a sentence, the market cannot either.

Competition · §02
Who are your 2 to 3 closest competitors, and what is missing from their product?
Name them specifically - e.g. “MyFitnessPal has no coach comms”…

Generic answers produce generic scores. The specifics determine your Uniqueness and Distribution scores in §04.

Budget · §05
What is your total available budget for development?
$50,000 / $100,000 / $200,000 / $200,000+

This shapes what we recommend. A $50k budget requires a very different MVP scope and strategy than $200k+.

PixelForce’s ability to quickly understand our product and service is impressive.

From the team
that actually builds.

PixelForce has facilitated over $1.5 billion in client revenue across 100+ products since 2013 - including SWEAT (Kayla Itsines, $400M exit), EzLicence ($100M+ annual bookings), and Traininpink (Italy’s #1 fitness app). We are an AWS Advanced Partner and SA Premier’s Export Award winner.

The people who produce your assessment are the same developers, product leads, and strategists who scope and price builds for PixelForce clients every week. The cost estimates in your report are not a formula - they are what we would actually quote you.

PixelForce's founding team - the same product leads, developers, and strategists who scope and price builds for clients every week. Hinney Lo personally reviews and signs the CEO's Note on every report.

A 10-section PDF report with a CEO's Note, market and viability analysis, a 7-dimension scored scorecard, recommended approach, MVP scope, three critical risks, go-to-market observations, and recommended next steps. Delivered within 48 hours of form submission. The $497 is credited in full toward any subsequent PixelForce engagement.

The cost ranges in your report are not a formula - they are what we would actually quote you. They are produced by the same people who scope and price builds at PixelForce every week. They reflect real complexity, real team composition, and real timelines.

Early-stage is fine - that is exactly what this product is for. The minimum is a concrete target customer. Without that, no honest assessment is possible. If your idea is too early to assess, we will say so in the CEO's Note and recommend a discovery sprint instead.

Yes. All submissions are confidential. The assessment team operates under a standard NDA, and your idea, your submission, and your report are never shared with any third party. If you require a custom NDA, email contact@pixelforce.com before you pay.

You will receive a 30-minute walkthrough call with a member of our founding team to discuss the findings and your recommended next step. There is no pressure to engage further - if the recommendation is “do not build”, we will tell you. If you do engage further, your $497 is credited in full.

Because the assessment involves real team time to produce, we do not offer refunds once your report has been delivered. If you have concerns about the quality or accuracy of your report, contact us at contact@pixelforce.com and we will review it with you.
