Question bank
Questions to rank customer problems
An interview bank for founders choosing what to build first

Nine questions in three sections that founders can reuse when they need to choose between several customer pains. Start with a real story, move to a shuffled top-three pick with a reason, then ask what the pain costs and what people already tried. Use the open questions first, in the same interview.
