Mom-Test Question Auditor

Your discovery questions, checked against the 3 Mom-Test rules. Future tense? Hidden pitch? Suggestive? Immediately visible.

For founders, PMs and researchers who don't want to waste their next 10 interviews.

Tip: pasting is fine — numbered lists are auto-stripped.

How it works

  1. 1Paste 1–10 questions you plan to ask in your next discovery call
  2. 2A cascade of free LLMs checks each against the 3 Mom-Test rules (past tense, behavior not opinion, no hidden pitch)
  3. 3Per question you get: Pass/Fail · Score · Issue tag · Mom-Test-conformant rewrite

FAQ

What are the 3 Mom-Test rules?

1. Ask about past facts, not opinions about the future. 2. Ask about specific behavior, not generic appreciation. 3. Talk less than the other person (70/30). Source: Rob Fitzpatrick, The Mom Test.

Why do I sometimes get very different scores for similar questions?

The auditor runs as a cascade across multiple free models (DeepSeek · Gemma · Nemotron · …). If the primary model is rate-limited, the next one takes over. Output style varies slightly — but the pass/fail logic is consistent.

Do I need the Mom-Test book to use this?

No. But read the full pillar article at lindoza.com/en/blog/sales/politeness-decoder — it covers the methodology with real examples.
