Lodestake / Features
Everything Lodestake does, and where it stops.
Each capability below says what it does, what it doesn’t, and whether it is live, in pilot, or coming. Mock-ups marked Illustrative use invented data.
Browse ideas, save what deserves a second look
Browse ideas by vertical and category, open any of them, and save the ones worth keeping. Saved ideas sit in your library with their plans and reports. Featured ideas are picked by the team; your saves are yours.
What it doesn’t do: rank ideas for you. Browsing is discovery, not validation.
- Bookings for mobile bike mechanics Services
- Scope-change log for freelance designers Software
- Shared prep kitchen calendar for food trucks Food
- Rental checklist app for tool libraries Services
- Plain-English changelog for small SaaS teams Software
- Surplus-bread pickup scheduling for bakeries Food
Generate an idea, then enrich it
Give Lodestake a prompt or a rough idea and it drafts a structured idea. Enrichment adds adjacent angles and names the gaps. You can also enrich from a link to an existing page.
What it doesn’t do: turn enrichment into evidence. Enrichment adds context; evidence comes from the report.
Bookings for mobile bike mechanics. Let mechanics who work from a van take bookings online.
Bookings for mobile bike mechanics. Let mechanics who work from a van take bookings online.
Angles: parts list per job; route-aware time slots; deposits for no-shows.
Gaps to test: will mechanics pay monthly? do customers book ahead, or call on the day?
A business plan you can argue with
Turn a saved idea into a business plan. Every section can be edited by hand, rewritten by AI with your instruction, and undone in one click, so trying a rewrite never costs you the version you had.
What it doesn’t do: invent market figures. A plan section that needs a number it does not have should say so.
Names, domains and handles, checked live
Lodestake suggests names for an idea, checks domains against the registries and handles on the main social networks, and assembles a name report. You can try the domain check on the home page; it is the same check.
What it doesn’t do: declare a name “the one”. The report gives signals; its scoring is still being improved, and it is not a trademark clearance.

Unknown is a real answer: a registry or network did not reply.
Trends and niches, for discovery
Discovery views list search trends and niches with the communities around them. Use them as pointers before you commit to an idea, not as proof.
What it doesn’t do: update in real time. The data is refreshed in batches, and the current batch dates from June 2026.
- Mobile bike repair communities: 3
- Food truck operations communities: 4
- Tool libraries communities: 2
The evidence report
The core of Lodestake: questions planned, evidence fetched and cited, a critic pass, a revision, and a verifier that removes unsupported numbers. See how it is made and what it looks like (Demo).
Where it stands: in pilot. Reports run on our side today; self-serve in the app is coming.
- Evidence items, typical report 78
- Numbers removed by the verifier, all runs 79
- Drafts sent back by the critic 27 of 30
- Unknowns written down, typical report 7
Hand it on as one packet
Export a saved idea and its plan as a venture packet: the hand-off format the rest of the CloviTek tools read. The hand-off to brand work is a link for now; a full hand-off is coming.
What it doesn’t do: promise file formats. The packet is a structured export, not a slide deck.
Trademark signals
Coming: signals from public government trademark sources, shown next to the name report and marked with the same found / not found / unknown states.
What it won’t be: legal advice or a clearance. The page that shows it will say so.
Not live. Nothing on this site or in the app claims trademark screening today.
Plans and pricing
Plans and usage limits are moving to a new account area. Public prices will be published with that move, and not before. Why there are no prices yet.
No public prices yet, by design.
