Tools
Small tools. Sharper decisions.
Studio Nine's frameworks, rebuilt as small interactive instruments. Free to use, no gate, no email required. Each one pairs with the journal essay it came from.
Brand Budget Calculator
How much brand investment your category actually rewards. Three inputs, one honest range — anchored on a framework not a hunch.
Rebrand Decision Wizard
Should you rebrand? Four questions decide — strategic clarity, ownership, market signal, trigger. Strong Yes, Yes, Wait, or Don't.
GEO Visibility Score
How citable is your site in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Gemini answers? A score across the five dimensions that move the new ranking surface.
Founder Audience ROI
What's your founder broadcast actually worth in annual pipeline? Five inputs — followers, posts, impressions, deal size, close rate. One year of compounding distribution, modelled honestly.

The rules
-
01
No gate. Every tool runs without an email. Email capture is offered, never required.
-
02
Anchored. Each tool pairs with a Studio Nine essay. The reasoning is open at the bottom of every result.
-
03
Honest. Some verdicts are don't do it. If a tool only ever says yes, it's a sales funnel, not a tool.
-
04
Free. Forever. Even when we build the big ones.
