Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Business Model Canvas?
The Business Model Canvas (BMC) is a strategic management template created by Alexander Osterwalder. It visualizes an organization's business model on a single page using nine interconnected building blocks. It is widely used by startups and established companies alike to describe, design, and pivot their business strategy.
What is the difference between BMC and Lean Canvas?
The Lean Canvas was adapted from the BMC by Ash Maurya for early-stage startups. It replaces four blocks — Key Partners, Key Activities, Key Resources, and Customer Relationships — with Problem, Solution, Key Metrics, and Unfair Advantage. The Lean Canvas is more hypothesis-driven and suited to testing assumptions before building a full business.
Is my canvas data private?
Yes. This tool runs entirely in your browser. No data is ever sent to a server. Your canvas content is stored only in your browser's local storage and stays on your device.
Can I export my Business Model Canvas?
Yes. You can export your canvas as a PNG image at 2× resolution. You can also use your browser's Print function (Ctrl+P / Cmd+P) to save it as a PDF in landscape format.
Which block should I fill in first?
Most practitioners recommend starting with Customer Segments (who you're serving) and Value Proposition (what problem you solve for them). Once these two blocks are clear, the other seven blocks — channels, relationships, revenue streams, resources, activities, partnerships, and costs — become much easier to complete.
What are the nine blocks of the Business Model Canvas?
The nine blocks are: Customer Segments, Value Proposition, Channels, Customer Relationships, Revenue Streams, Key Resources, Key Activities, Key Partnerships, and Cost Structure. Each block answers a specific question about how the business creates, delivers, and captures value.
