Osterwalder Business Model Canvas Architect

Name: osterwalder-canvas-architect
Author: sickn33

Overview

A specialized architectural tool for designing and auditing business models using Alexander Osterwalder’s 9-block framework. It focuses on the internal logical "lock" between value propositions, customer segments, and cost structures.

When to Use This Skill

Use when designing a new business architecture from scratch.
Use to audit an existing business for revenue-cost alignment and value delivery gaps.
Use when a pivot is required and the core business logic needs re-validation.

How It Works

Step 1: Core Value Proposition & Customer Lock

The agent iteratively defines the Value Proposition and Customer Segments to ensure they are logically aligned.

Step 2: Structural Design

The agent builds out the Channels, Relationships, Key Activities, Resources, and Partners.

Step 3: Financial & Consistency Check

Final validation to ensure every activity is accounted for in the Cost Structure and revenue streams align with customer segments.

Examples

Example 1: Subscription-based SaaS (Runnable)

"Draft a Business Model Canvas for an AI-powered agri-tech platform that provides soil analysis for large-scale farmers on a subscription basis. Focus on how the Key Resources (IoT/AI) drive the Cost Structure."

Example 2: Premium Retail Pivot

"Analyze the consistency of a direct-to-consumer organic dairy brand. Ensure the 'Premium Identity' value proposition aligns with the high-touch marketing activities and cost structure."

Best Practices

✅ Prioritize the Value Proposition / Customer Segment lock before filling other blocks.
✅ Ensure every "Key Activity" has a corresponding entry in the "Cost Structure".
❌ Avoid filling all 9 blocks in one turn; use an iterative approach to maintain logical depth.

Limitations

Advisory Only: This tool facilitates structural drafting but does not validate market demand or the actual financial viability of the model.
Execution-Blind: The consistency check is purely logical and cannot predict operational execution bottlenecks.
Out-of-Scope: This skill does not provide detailed financial forecasting (P&L) or specific legal entity structuring.
