Cognitive Reality Check
Stress-test ideas before belief sets in
Most ideas die from contact with reality, not lack of passion.
This tool finds the fatal flaws before you commit.
Cognitive Reality Check is a framework for testing whether an idea survives collision with actual human behavior, market forces, and physics.
Not a business plan template. Not a vision board. A reality distortion detector that reveals the gap between what sounds good and what actually works.

Why Reality Checks Matter
Friction Kills
If your idea requires daily effort, it competes with inertia. Humans optimize for zero friction. That's not laziness—it's physics.
Social Reality
People won't do things that make them look weird. Social acceptability is binary: you're either normal or you're niche.
Hardware is Hard
Every physical component is a point of failure. Software scales infinitely. Hardware scales linearly and breaks.
Urgency = Revenue
Nice-to-have ideas die in economic downturns. Must-have ideas survive everything. Urgency determines survival.
