# business-model output preview
## PART A: Task fit
- Use case: Generate a Business Model Canvas with all 9 building blocks. Use when creating a business model, documenting how a business creates value, or analyzing an existing business model..
- Inputs: target material, constraints, expected output, and acceptance criteria.
- Evidence boundary: follow “Metadata / Instructions / Input Requirements” and do not present inference as author intent.
## PART B: Execution result
- **01** The card summarizes the use case; runtime output centers on “Generate a Business Model Canvas with all 9 building blocks. Use when creating a business model, documenting how a business creates value, or analyzing an existing business model.”.
- **02** When the source has headings, the agent prioritizes “Metadata / Instructions / Input Requirements” so the result follows the author’s structure.
- **03** Typical output includes task judgment, concrete steps, required commands or file edits, validation, and follow-up options.
- **04** Risk context follows the fingerprint: read files, write/modify files; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
## Running Rules
- read files, write/modify files; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
- Validate with a small sample before expanding scope.
- Return the result, validation criteria, and next iteration options. Choose the trigger
The source does not require a stable slash command. After installation, invoke the skill by name and describe the task.
Provide inputs and boundaries
Name target files or source material, expected output, forbidden changes, and whether network or shell access is allowed. Permission fingerprint: read files, write/modify files.
Validate with a small run
Start with a small task and check whether the result follows “Metadata / Instructions / Input Requirements”. Inspect diffs, logs, previews, or tests before expanding scope.
Review before delivery
Confirm the final output includes a concrete result, evidence, and next action. If it stays generic, tighten inputs, boundaries, and acceptance criteria.

## When to use

- Use it when the task has clear inputs, repeatable steps, and validation criteria.
## What to provide
- Target material, scope, expected result, and forbidden changes.
- Whether network, commands, file writes, or external services are allowed.
## Execution rules
- Organize steps around “Metadata / Instructions / Input Requirements” and keep inference separate from source facts.
- read files, write/modify files; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
- Validate with a small sample before expanding the task.
## Output requirements
- Return the deliverable, key evidence, validation method, and next action.
- Mark missing information as unknown; do not invent commands, platforms, or dependencies. Evidence boundary and execution chain
The author source anchors workflow facts; repository files anchor sources and commands; Fluxly only adds fit, limitations, and quality judgment.

Metadata
- Name: business-model
- Description: Generate a Business Model Canvas with all 9 building blocks. Use when creating a business model, documenting how a business creates value, or analyzing an existing business model.
- Triggers: business model canvas, BMC, business model, how we make money
Instructions
You are a business model strategist designing a Business Model Canvas for $ARGUMENTS.
Your task is to create a comprehensive Business Model Canvas that outlines how the business creates, delivers, and captures value.
Input Requirements
- Product or service description
- Target customer(s) and market
- Current business operations or assumptions
- Competitive context or industry dynamics
Business Model Canvas Template
Left Side: Creating Value
1. Key Partners
- Who are the key strategic partners and suppliers?
- What partnerships enable our business model?
- Which activities do partners handle?
- Are there joint ventures or co-creation opportunities?
2. Key Activities
- What key activities does the business perform?
- What processes are critical to delivering value?
- Are these activities in-house or outsourced?
- Production, problem-solving, platform/network activities?
3. Key Resources
- What resources are necessary to create value?
- Physical assets, intellectual property, human capital, financial
- What resources enable key activities and partnerships?
- What's the minimum viable resource set?
Center: The Value Proposition
4. Value Propositions
- What value do we deliver to customers?
- Which customer problems do we solve?
- What needs are satisfied?
- What products/services address each segment?
- Quantitative (price, speed, quality) vs. qualitative (design, status)
Right Side: Delivering Value
5. Customer Relationships
- How do we establish and maintain customer relationships?
- Personal assistance, self-service, automated, community, co-creation
- Cost of customer acquisition and retention
- How do we keep customers engaged?
6. Channels
- How do customers discover and access the value?
- Awareness: How do customers learn about us?
- Purchase: How do they buy?
- Delivery: How is value delivered?
- After-sales: How do we support customers?
- Direct vs. indirect, owned vs. partner channels
7. Customer Segments
- Who are the key customer segments?
- Mass market, niche market, segmented, multi-sided platform
- What are their defining characteristics?
- Distinct needs, channels, relationships, or profitability
Bottom: Financial Viability
8. Cost Structure
- What are the most important costs?
- Fixed vs. variable costs
- Cost drivers (scale, automation, labor, infrastructure)
- Is this a cost-driven or value-driven business?
9. Revenue Streams
- How does the business make money?
- Per customer, per transaction, subscription, licensing, rents
- Pricing mechanisms (fixed, dynamic, value-based)
- Customer lifetime value and unit economics
Output Process
- Identify and profile customer segments
- Define the core value proposition(s)
- Map customer relationships and channels
- List key activities and resources
- Identify key partners
- Outline cost structure
- Define revenue streams
- Ensure all 9 blocks align and support each other
- Test economic viability (LTV > 3x CAC)
- Identify key assumptions and risks
Domain Context
Business Model Canvas vs Lean Canvas vs Startup Canvas:
Business Model Canvas (Strategyzer, Alexander Osterwalder) is the most widely used canvas framework. It provides a balanced, holistic view of how value flows through the organization. However, it has known limitations for product strategy:
- No vision: Why should your team wake up every day? BMC doesn't address motivation or aspiration.
- No Can't/Won't test: What stops competitors from copying you? BMC lacks a defensibility section that goes beyond listing resources.
- No trade-offs: What you choose NOT to do creates focus and amplifies value — BMC doesn't address this.
- No key metrics: How do you know the strategy is working? BMC has no metrics section.
- Low-value sections for startups: Key Partnerships and Key Resources are rarely useful for early-stage products.
When to use BMC: Established businesses, corporate strategy, investor materials where you need to articulate how all operational pieces connect.
Alternatives:
- Lean Canvas (Ash Maurya): Startup-focused, faster, replaces Partners/Activities/Resources with Problem/Solution/Unfair Advantage. Better for hypothesis testing but still mixes strategy and business model.
- Startup Canvas (Paweł Huryn): Separates strategy (9 sections from the Product Strategy Canvas) from business model (Cost Structure + Revenue Streams). Recommended for new products where you need strategic clarity alongside the business model.
Notes
- The Business Model Canvas provides a holistic view of how value flows through the organization
- Each block should reinforce and support the others
- Strong business models have clear, defensible value propositions
- Financial sustainability requires revenue to exceed costs at scale
- Use this to identify opportunities for innovation and optimization
