Feasibility Study Agent
States what would have to be true, and what happens when it is not
5 of 8 assumptions need attention.
8 assumptions checked. 5 flagged. The largest gap is 302 days.
Start with Customer acquisition cost stays at 40. - has the most flagged.
Whether an assumption is true is what the study has to find out; the list only shows which ones nobody has backed.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Customer acquisition cost stays at 40 | - | 3 | 302 | No source, No owner, Not reviewed in 6 months |

What to do this week
- Resolve Customer acquisition cost stays at 40 first: it is the most urgent on the list.
- Fix the data or the status on every flagged row, then re-run.
- Re-run this check every time the list changes, before it reaches a decision.
Do
- Fix the highest-risk item first, then run the check again on fresh data.
Don't
- Don't act on one row alone: open the source record first.
How to improve
- Add more detail per row (owner, date, source) so the next report can trace each item.
- Add a second period of data so the next report can show whether things are improving.

Overview
Almost every feasibility study concludes that the project is feasible. That is the genre's defect: it is commissioned by somebody who has decided, and read by a bank that needs a document. Eighty pages arrive, "viable" is the verdict, and nobody can say afterwards which number the whole thing was resting on.
A study is worth something only if it could have concluded the opposite, and if the reader can find the assumptions that decide the outcome. Every project has two or three. A restaurant is a bet on covers per night and rent as a share of revenue. A factory is a bet on utilisation and input price. An app is a bet on acquisition cost against retention. The rest is scenery.
So the output is inverted. Not "the project returns 24%" — a figure carried to two decimals from inputs that were guesses — but "this works while food cost stays under 31% and Tuesdays fill 40 covers; here is what happens at 35% and 30; and here is which of the two to go and measure before signing anything."
It covers the whole structure a lender or a partner expects — market, operations, technical, legal, organisation, financials, risk — but every section is written to be falsifiable, and it separates the figures you supplied from the ones it assumed and from the ones nobody has yet.
It gives no recommendation to invest, no valuation, and no financial or legal advice.
Benefits
A document a lender can interrogate
Because every figure names where it came from.
The real risk, early
Found in an afternoon rather than in the second year of trading.
A decision you can defend
Including the decision not to proceed.
What it does
Finds the two or three numbers that decide it
Every project rests on a handful of assumptions and eighty pages of scenery. It names which is which before anything else.
Break-even on each, not a single verdict
How far each assumption can move before the answer flips. A return carried to two decimals from guesses is theatre.
Three cases, honestly separated
Conservative, expected and optimistic — with what changes between them stated, not just the totals.
Marks what was supplied, assumed, or unknown
Most studies blend all three into one confident column. Knowing which is which is the difference between a study and a brochure.
Says what to go and measure first
The one or two facts worth the cost of finding out before committing, ranked by how much they move the outcome.
Can conclude that it does not work
And states the conditions under which it would. A study that cannot fail is not a study.
What this changes
What this changes about your week
- It takes over
- Producing the study a lender or a partner expects, with the assumptions exposed rather than buried.
- Done today by
- A consultant at several thousand, or the founder at midnight in a spreadsheet nobody else can follow.
- How often
- Before every lease, licence, loan or new line.
- Typical manual effort
- Weeks, and eighty pages that conclude "feasible" because that is what the commission was for.
Why Professional Services in particular. Almost every study concludes the project is feasible. One that names the two numbers deciding it, and what happens when they move, is a different document entirely.
Runs unattended
Started by you or by an event, and it finishes on its own. Nothing waits for someone to be at a desk.
The same standard every time
The two-hundredth item is held to the bar the first one was. Consistency is the part people cannot sustain.
It cannot act on its own
Feasibility Study Agent has no path to sending, spending or committing. That limit is why its output is safe to act on.
How it runs
This agent runs server-side through the PROMIVO runtime. Each run is logged step by step and every tool call is permission-checked before it executes.

FAQ
Will it tell me whether to invest?
No. It states what would have to be true and how far each assumption can move before the answer changes. Recommending an investment is regulated financial advice in most places and requires a licensed adviser who knows your circumstances.
Where do its numbers come from?
From what you supply. Anything it assumes is labelled as an assumption with the reasoning, and anything neither supplied nor safely assumable is listed as unknown rather than filled in. It does not invent market sizes or benchmark costs and present them as findings.
Does it value the business?
No. It produces no valuation, no multiple and no share price. Those are opinions with legal weight and they belong to a qualified professional.
Can it work with very little information?
Yes, and it will say so plainly. With a thin brief it produces the structure, the assumptions that would decide it, and the list of what to establish — which is genuinely useful and is not the same as a study.
Does it cover legal and regulatory feasibility?
It flags the permits, licences and regulatory questions a project of that type usually faces, so none is a surprise. It does not give legal advice or confirm that any specific requirement applies to you.
