A great business idea needs more than just passion—it needs structure, validation, and a strategic plan. The Lean Canvas Template from Stackby helps startups, entrepreneurs, and innovators systematically evaluate and refine their business model on a single page.

Inspired by Ash Maurya’s Lean Canvas methodology, this template breaks down your idea into nine key components. Whether you're pre-launch or preparing for an investor pitch, this powerful and collaborative template ensures that every element of your business plan is thoughtfully considered and easy to update.

Key Features of the Lean Canvas Template

The Lean Canvas Template is structured across two interlinked tables: Lean Canvas Entries and Canvas Feedback. These tables work together to help you define your business model and gather stakeholder insights—all in one place.

 1. Lean Canvas Entries

This is the heart of your template. Each row in this table represents a single business idea and includes all nine key components of the Lean Canvas:

  • Idea Name
  • Problem
  • Customer Segments
  • Unique Value Proposition
  • Solution
  • Channels:
  • Revenue Streams:
  • Cost Structure
  • Key Metrics
  • Unfair Advantage
  • Status: .
  • Owner
  • Last Updated

This table ensures version tracking and clarity for every stakeholder involved in your startup journey.

 2. Canvas Feedback

Collecting feedback early and often is crucial. This second table allows stakeholders—advisors, mentors, team members—to provide feedback on any canvas record. Key fields include:

  • Feedback For
  • Reviewer Name 
  •  Role
  • Feedback Notes
  • Rating
  • Feedback Date

Together, these fields provide a historical view of your business model evolution—what worked, what didn’t, and why.
