# How Hypothis works: from idea to honest verdict, in four steps

Source: https://hypothis.ai/how-it-works

No research background required. Hypothis handles the method; you bring the idea and the respondents.

## 1. Describe your idea

Tell Hypothis what you're thinking about building, in your own words. No forms, no frameworks to learn first.

## 2. AI sharpens it into hypotheses

Your idea becomes 3–5 falsifiable assumptions across problem, willingness-to-pay, behavior, solution-fit, and market — each one specific enough to confirm or kill.

## 3. Run a research round

Hypothis builds the research instrument — screeners to keep the wrong respondents out, Mom-Test-disciplined questions, adaptive AI follow-ups — and you send it to real people.

## 4. Read your verdict

Each hypothesis is scored confirmed, weakened, or inconclusive from the responses you collected. They roll up into one honest read: Build it, Keep testing, Refine, or Weak demand.

## Common questions

### What is a hypothesis in Hypothis?

A falsifiable assumption about your idea, specific enough to confirm or kill. Hypothis turns your idea into 3–5 of them across problem, willingness-to-pay, behavior, solution-fit, and market.

### Who answers the research questions?

Real people you recruit and send the study to. Hypothis builds the research instrument, but it never fabricates respondents or answers.

### What does the AI do, and what do I do?

The AI sharpens your idea into hypotheses and builds the instrument — screeners that keep the wrong respondents out, Mom-Test-disciplined questions, and adaptive follow-ups. You bring the idea and the respondents.

### How do I get from responses to a decision?

Each hypothesis is scored confirmed, weakened, or inconclusive from the responses you collected. Those roll up into one of four recommendations: Build it, Keep testing, Refine, or Weak demand.
