Lean Canvas vs Business Model Canvas vs Startup Canvas:
Lean Canvas (Ash Maurya) is a startup-focused adaptation of the Business Model Canvas that replaces Partners/Activities/Resources with Problem/Solution/Unfair Advantage. It's fast and hypothesis-driven, but has known limitations:
When to use Lean Canvas: Quick hypothesis testing when you need speed over completeness. Best as a brainstorming tool, not a strategy document.
Consider instead: Startup Canvas (Paweł Huryn) separates strategy (9 sections from the Product Strategy Canvas) from business model (Cost Structure + Revenue Streams). Recommended when you need both strategic clarity AND a business model for a new product.
