How It Works – Business Model Canvas Builder
What is the Business Model Canvas?
The Business Model Canvas (BMC) is a single-page strategic management tool. It is not just a document; it is a language for describing, analyzing, and designing business models. Our app guides you through building this canvas using nine interconnected building blocks, helping you visualize how all parts of your business work together.
Holistic View
See your entire business on one page.
Strategic Alignment
Ensure every element supports your goals.
Actionable Plan
Move from abstract ideas to concrete steps.
Where Does the Information Come From
The data you input is the result of your real-world research and strategic thinking. The more effort you put into discovery, the more valuable your canvas will be.
Stakeholder Meetings & Workshops
Facilitate guided discussions to brainstorm, challenge assumptions, and gain consensus on the business model. This is where you establish a shared vision.
Customer Interviews & Empathy Mapping
The most critical data comes from your customers. Conduct interviews to understand their needs, problems, and daily workflows.
Surveys & Questionnaires
Use online surveys to gather broader, quantitative data on market trends, customer demographics, and product preferences.
Competitor Analysis
Research your competitors to identify gaps and opportunities for your own model.
Market Research Reports
Consult industry reports to understand the broader market landscape, including key trends, regulations, and future forecasts.
