Business Model Validation instead of Customer Validation [+Free beta access to all Rodinhooders]

You might remember that I had earlier asked to feedback on my startup idea which was an Anti-Virus for Ecommerce Agreements. Rodinhooders were extremely helpful and gave valuable feedback. Thank you so much for that. 

However, one thing I realize that that there are two type of validation- Customer Validation and Business Model Validation. 

Customer Validation is easy, almost everyone will sign up for a free beta. And since, I picked a very common problem everyone I talk says yes, I need this product. [talked to around 300 people personally] Validation from the customer, which any online shopper can give me, but then Rodinhooders are not are just a common online shopper. They are Entrepreneurs with a sharing mind and a business intellect. 

Therefore, it makes sense for me to not seek customer validation but share the so-called secret business model and see what you think. It will answer a lot of smart questions which were raised in my last post. It have begun to trust this community, and as Alok sir has said, I don’t exactly remember but: “If you have an idea worth stealing, be happy that someone stole it and is working on it.”

So here is a link to the LeanStack Business Model Canvas: https://leanstack.com/canvases/194233#

I request you all to give feedback, particular w.r.t to customer segments, and who should my primary and ideal customer.
