Is this the full Value Proposition Canvas (Customer Profile + Value Map)?
Yes. This is the Strategyzer Value Proposition Canvas: Customer Profile (jobs, pains, gains) and Value Map (products and services, pain relievers, gain creators). It is not only a value proposition statement generator; you build both blocks and link them to check fit.
What is the Fit Checker and FitScore?
The Fit Checker shows uncovered pains (no linked pain reliever), uncovered gains (no linked gain creator), orphan relievers or creators (no linked pain or gain), and items marked Assumption with no evidence. FitScore is the percentage of pains and gains that have at least one link, weighted by Top 3 priority. Aim for high coverage and validated evidence.
How do I link pains to pain relievers and gains to gain creators?
In the canvas, use the linking controls: select a pain and link it to one or more pain relievers; select a gain and link it to one or more gain creators. Optional: link jobs to products and services. Links are used for FitScore and for generating the value proposition statement and landing page copy.
Why must I pick Top 3 for jobs, pains, and gains?
Prioritization forces you to focus. The canvas can have many items, but Top 3 per section identifies what matters most for fit and for your value proposition. The Fit Checker weights Top 3 when computing FitScore, and outputs (headline, bullets) lean on top pain relievers and gain creators linked to priority items.
What is the difference between Assumption and Validated?
Assumption means you have not yet validated this with evidence. Validated means you have a quote, metric, or source (use the evidence field). The Fit Checker flags assumptions with no evidence so you know what to test. The Assumptions to test list exports all assumption items for validation planning.
How does B2B mode differ from B2C?
B2B mode adds prompts and context for procurement, security, stakeholder alignment, and compliance. B2C mode emphasizes habit, context, and emotion. The canvas structure is the same; the examples and prompts help you fill jobs, pains, and gains in a way that fits your context.
Can I export the canvas as PNG or PDF?
Yes. Export PNG gives you a snapshot of the canvas (both sides and FitScore) for slides or Miro. Export PDF uses the browser print dialog so you can save as PDF or print. Both are useful for workshops and stakeholder reviews. Markdown and CSV export the structured content for docs and backlog.
How do I get the value proposition statement and landing page copy?
They are generated from your canvas: the statement uses segment, job, product, pain reliever, gain creator, and alternative. Headline and subheadline are derived from the value map; the three bullets come from top pain relievers and gain creators. Update the canvas and links to improve the output.
Is this Value Proposition Canvas tool free?
Yes. The tool is free, runs in your browser, and requires no login. You can build the canvas, link items, run the Fit Checker, export PNG/PDF/Markdown/JSON/CSV, and share a URL. Autosave uses local storage; we do not store your data on our servers.
How does this fit with other CraftUp discovery tools?
Use it with the Problem Statement Generator, JTBD Statement Generator, and Persona Generator to go from problems and jobs to a clear value proposition. Feed interview insights (Interview Script Generator) and clustering (Insight Clustering Helper) into jobs, pains, and gains, then map your value and check fit.
