Pipsqueak is a macOS menu-bar coach that rides along on your customer interviews, running the Mom Test in real time.

Problem

Good customer discovery is a skill, and most founders learn it too late — by re-reading a transcript after the call, when the leading questions and missed follow-ups are already baked in. The insight you needed was one better question away, and the call is gone.

Solution

Pipsqueak listens live and coaches in the moment. It applies the Mom Test as you talk and surfaces one-line nudges — "ask about the last time this happened," "don't pitch yet" — so you steer toward truth while it still matters.

How it works

It sits in your menu bar, listens to your Meet or Zoom call, and quietly prompts you with the next best question in real time. No note-taking, no post-call homework.

Why now

Discovery quality is the leading indicator of whether a product survives, and it's coachable — but only in the moment. Real-time guidance turns a rare skill into a default one.
