\n Phase 2 Step 4 of 6: Review and Idea Intake Operations<\/span>\n

Reviews and app ideas need a clear queue, not a messy inbox.<\/h1>\n

TrailRunner should handle review requests, proof moderation, What You Need submissions, and creator-profit decisions with visible stages, safeguards, and next actions.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n

\n
\n Review Queue<\/span>\n

Verified customer proof<\/h2>\n

Collect feedback only after a customer has enough context to use the app, then moderate for privacy, disclosure, accuracy, and useful limitations.<\/p>\n <\/article>\n

\n Idea Queue<\/span>\n

What You Need submissions<\/h2>\n

Capture who the idea helps, what repeats, the first useful version, why people would pay, and whether the idea fits TrailRunner governance.<\/p>\n <\/article>\n

\n Decision Queue<\/span>\n

Publish, reject, hold, or scope<\/h2>\n

Every review or idea should leave the queue with a documented decision, a reason, an owner, and the next step.<\/p>\n <\/article>\n <\/div>\n\n

\n
\n
\n Review intake<\/span>\n Collect after first value<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n

Customer review request<\/h2>\n

Ask for honest feedback after the customer has completed the first success checkpoint and understands the app outcome.<\/p>\n

\n
Required evidence<\/dt>
Verified purchase or support context, app used, customer type, outcome attempted, permission to publish.<\/dd><\/div>\n
Protection rule<\/dt>
Never request fake praise, never suppress honest negative feedback, and disclose any relationship or compensation.<\/dd><\/div>\n
Next action<\/dt>
Moderate for privacy and accuracy, then publish balanced feedback or log why it was rejected.<\/dd><\/div>\n <\/dl>\n <\/article>\n
\n
\n Case study<\/span>\n Needs permission<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n

Family or business outcome story<\/h2>\n

Turn a real workflow result into a short proof story that includes context, limitation, and measurable improvement.<\/p>\n

\n
Required evidence<\/dt>
Customer permission, before\/after context, app used, support notes, measurable outcome, honest limitation.<\/dd><\/div>\n
Protection rule<\/dt>
Remove sensitive household, business, location, billing, or support details unless written permission covers them.<\/dd><\/div>\n
Next action<\/dt>
Draft a short case study, confirm attribution level, and route through proof moderation before publishing.<\/dd><\/div>\n <\/dl>\n <\/article>\n
\n
\n Idea intake<\/span>\n Screen for fit<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n

What You Need app idea<\/h2>\n

Evaluate app ideas from families and small businesses by repeated need, buyer clarity, feasibility, privacy impact, and support burden.<\/p>\n

\n
Required evidence<\/dt>
Audience, repeated problem, first useful version, willingness to pay, privacy concerns, likely support path.<\/dd><\/div>\n
Protection rule<\/dt>
Do not promise development, ownership, payout, or exclusivity before written scope and creator agreement.<\/dd><\/div>\n
Next action<\/dt>
Reject, hold for more context, or move to scope review with market fit and build feasibility notes.<\/dd><\/div>\n <\/dl>\n <\/article>\n
\n
\n Creator agreement<\/span>\n Written terms required<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n

Accepted idea partner decision<\/h2>\n

When TrailRunner selects an idea, the 25% proceeds path starts only after written terms define scope, acceptance, payout basis, and launch rules.<\/p>\n

\n
Required evidence<\/dt>
Accepted scope, idea partner identity, proceeds basis, support owner, launch gate, payout reporting cadence.<\/dd><\/div>\n
Protection rule<\/dt>
No payout representation should be made for rejected, duplicate, infeasible, unsupported, or unsigned ideas.<\/dd><\/div>\n
Next action<\/dt>
Prepare written creator agreement, document launch readiness, and add the app to the governance ledger if accepted.<\/dd><\/div>\n <\/dl>\n <\/article>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n Operating Playbook<\/span>\n

How TrailRunner should process the queue each week<\/h2>\n

Review and idea operations should be boring in the best way: same intake fields, same review standards, same privacy checks, same written decision record.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

    \n
  1. Capture<\/strong>Log the app, customer or idea type, requested outcome, date received, and owner.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Validate<\/strong>Check verified use, permission, privacy, conflicts, feasibility, support load, and market fit.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Decide<\/strong>Publish, reject, hold for more context, or move into written scope and creator agreement.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Close loop<\/strong>Send the customer or idea partner the decision, next step, and any support or agreement requirements.<\/span><\/li>\n <\/ol>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":14,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-103","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nTrailRunner Operations Queue -
