- 5. MVP - Minimal Viable Product? "Version of a new product which allows a team to collect the maximum amount of validated learning about customers with the least effort." The goal of an MVP is to test fundamental business hypotheses (leap-of-faith assumptions) and to help entrepreneurs begin the learning process as quickly as possible.

- 23. In advanced mental calculation competitions, 15 triple-digit numbers are displayed in 2 sec. The participants can perform arithmetic operations on these numbers completely in their head. In advanced mental calculation competitions, 15 triple-digit numbers are displayed in 2 seconds. The participants can perform arithmetic operations on these numbers completely in their head.
- 24. Participants can also remember the exact sequence of up to 20 numbers.
- 25. Kids can listen to 3 columns of numbers read out and add up each column individually in parallel
- 26. Vision ✓ Every kid can calculate faster than a calculator. Kids don't have to be born genius to do this. ✓ To empower a generation of kids who are not afraid of numbers and who excel in Mathematics & Analytical skills
- 27. My kid learns at a different pace relative to other kids. I need a customizable, adaptive learning solution suitable to my kid. Parent's Value Hypothesis Learning mental arithmetic at an early age, will help kid's overall brain development ( fast mental calculation, improved concentration & memory skills , enhanced reading & listening skills, left & right brain development , better retention power, enhanced visualization) Learning is directly proportional to the feedback provided during the learning process. Hence I want a very high teacher to student ratio.
- 28. Parent's Value Hypothesis... With all the distractions today, my kid has very low patience for boring teaching techniques. Teaching technique has to be activity based (interactive) & gamified to make it addictive. I'm keen to compare & base-line my kid's thinking ability and memory (.i.e. overall brain power) with other kids. Its a pain to drop & pick-up kids from classes. Would prefer something available at the comfort of my home.
- 29. Student's Value Hypothesis I learn more when learning is fun. I want edutainment! Watching videos or animations gets boring. I want to learn by actively doing things. Don't assume I'm stupid and need to be spoon-fed. Give me something challenging with intelligent guidance. I'm curious and I like to figure out things on my own. If I can't, give me hints and instant feedback, it helps me learn faster. I want to learn new concepts in the context of solving real problems. It helps me retain the knowledge better. I enjoy helping other kids when they get stuck. It helps me learn better and gain more confidence in myself.
- 30. Growth Hypothesis Parents love to show-off their kid's newly acquired skills. During this process they would recommend our product to other parents. Schools encourage their students to excel in various extra-curricular activities. They would promote our product to their students. Online publishing and education companies would like to offer more complementary Tech-Ed products/services to their customers. They would find out product attractive and would partner with us to offer this product as part of their service offering. Tablets have become commodity business. Tablet manufactures will be keen to bundle-up our app with their tablets. Billions of Apps have been sold via the App stores. Its a great place for users to discover and buy our product.
