Building isn't the problem — picking the right idea is.

Say what you expect — then measure whether you were right.

For solo founders who won't lose more months to the wrong idea — and don't have free evenings at a computer. The best ideas strike on the go: speak yours the moment it hits. Shliff branches it into a clear idea map and turns the riskiest assumption into a hurdle: one number, one deadline, one concrete way to measure it — before you build. Passed or refuted. Refuted isn't failure, it's months saved.

  • Tap the mic
  • Speak your idea
  • Branch it into a map
  • Say what you expect
  • Measure whether you were right

Shliff app: a spoken idea as a visual, branching idea tree

The flow

Validate your business idea: from guess to measured number

Idea map: a spoken idea as a branching tree with AI nodes, synthesis and a hurdle flag

1 Brainstorm

Speak or write your raw idea.

Voice recording over the idea map: waveform and record button on the selected node

2 Capture

Speak or write – the AI shapes the node.

Set a hurdle: a prediction with a target number, a deadline and how you'll count it

3 Predict

Riskiest assumption, one number, one deadline.

Hurdle plan as a timeline: passed and refuted hurdles with their deadlines

4 Measure

Passed or refuted — with a reminder.

Idea tree with sorted nodes: important, maybe, discarded

Sorting & overview

Keep the overview as your map grows.

Mark nodes with one tap as ★ Important, ? Maybe or ✕ Discarded. Discarded doesn't mean deleted: reactivate any time, or hide discarded branches altogether. And you can test anywhere — every node can carry a hurdle, and the map shows where one is running.

  • Important · Maybe · Discarded — one tap on the node
  • Show only hurdle branches: one tap hides the rest
Prompt generator and chat in the context of a node

AI Chat and Prompt Generator

AI prompt generator and chat — right on the node.

Ask the model about this exact node or branch — the app brings the context along. A support that sharpens your thinking instead of taking it over.

  • Surface risky assumptions
  • Unlock AI with your own API keys
  • Tune the context individually per node
