Assessment 1: Impossible Triangle

Evaluates the balance between Innovation, Viability, and Scalability. An imbalanced profile is flagged when the max-min spread exceeds 20 points.

Innovation

Sourced from Products & Services. Keywords: novel, patent, proprietary, disruptive, R&D.

Viability

Sourced from Business Model & Financials. Keywords: revenue, margin, unit economics, funding.

Scalability

Sourced from Market Opportunity. Keywords: TAM, growth, expansion, network effect, platform.

Trap Detection

When one pillar dominates by more than 30 points, a trap pattern is detected:

Innovation Noose

Heavy on innovation, light on viability and scalability

Viability Guillotine

Strong financials but weak innovation and growth narrative

Scalability Trap

Big growth claims without validated business model

Assessment 2: British Market Fit Deep Dive

Scores four sub-components of UK-specific content:

Sub-Component	Weight	What It Checks
Regulatory Alignment	30%	FCA, HMRC, ICO, GDPR, Companies House references
Consumer Fit	25%	UK market, British consumer, UK demographics, spending data
Competitive Landscape	20%	UK competitors, UK market leaders, UK positioning
Innovation Agenda Fit	25%	Innovate UK, UKRI, Catapult, UK digital strategy

Assessment 3: Fortune / Timing

Evaluates whether the plan addresses market timing, technology readiness, and policy windows:

Market Timing (40%)

Trends, growing markets, window of opportunity, adoption curves.

Technology Readiness (35%)

MVP, prototype, pilot, beta, production-ready, proof of concept.

Policy Windows (25%)

Government funding, tax relief, SEIS/EIS, visa policy support.

Tips

Use after the Endorsement Navigator — especially when two bodies score close together
Address the weakest pillar first — each trap pattern comes with specific rebalancing strategies
BMF is critical — endorsement bodies reject applications that lack UK-specific content
Fortune is not luck — it is about demonstrating strategic timing and policy awareness
