StratEngine can run 29 strategy frameworks on a company, grouped into four categories. Free includes 4 of them, Essential includes 13, and Professional includes all 29. Pay-as-you-go accounts can run every framework and pay per run. Each run produces a framework analysis of your company, a useful foundation for a strategy rather than the strategy itself. For a full strategy with a recommended direction, turn the result into a [strategy brief](/docs/strategy/strategy-briefs) or start in [Strategy Builder](/docs/strategy/strategy-builder). In the app, each framework card shows a tier badge instead of a plan name: **Foundational** frameworks are on every plan, **Growth** frameworks need Essential or higher, and **Advanced** frameworks need Professional. Frameworks outside your plan show an **Upgrade** button instead of **Select**. See [Strategy plans](/docs/strategy/billing/plans). ## Market & Product Strategy | Framework | Plan | Use it when | | - | - | - | | [Porter's Five Forces](/docs/strategy/frameworks/porters) | Essential | You want to judge how attractive and competitive an industry is. | | [Digital Marketing GTM Strategy](/docs/strategy/frameworks/digital-gtm) | Essential | You're planning a digital go-to-market: personas, competition, campaigns and metrics. | | [Product-Market Growth Matrix](/docs/strategy/frameworks/ansoff) | Essential | You're choosing between growing in current markets, new markets, new products or diversifying. | | [Product Lifecycle](/docs/strategy/frameworks/product-lifecycle) | Essential | You need to know which stage a product is in and what that means for investment. | | [Strategic Pricing Pyramid](/docs/strategy/frameworks/strategic-pricing-pyramid) | Essential | You're building a pricing strategy from value and structure up, before setting a price. | | [Blue Ocean Strategy](/docs/strategy/frameworks/blue-ocean) | Professional | You're looking for market space competitors aren't contesting. | | [Porter's Value Chain](/docs/strategy/frameworks/portersvc) | Professional | You want to find which activities create advantage or cost too much. | | [Rogers' Five Factors](/docs/strategy/frameworks/rogers-five-factors) | Professional | You're launching something new and want to know how fast it will be adopted. | | [Play to Win](/docs/strategy/frameworks/play-to-win) | Professional | You need a full set of strategic choices, from aspiration to where to play and how to win. | | [Three Horizons](/docs/strategy/frameworks/three-horizons) | Professional | You're balancing today's core business against emerging and long-term bets. | | [Seven Degrees of Freedom](/docs/strategy/frameworks/seven-degrees-of-freedom) | Professional | You want a wide map of growth paths, from existing customers to new arenas. | | [BCG Growth Share Matrix](/docs/strategy/frameworks/bcg-growth-share-matrix) | Professional | You're deciding where to put resources across several products or business units. | ## Positioning & Strategic Analysis | Framework | Plan | Use it when | | -

It opens Strategy Builder, where you describe your situation instead. * **You'd rather not pick at all:** start in [Strategy Builder](/docs/strategy/strategy-builder) and choose **Talk it through**. The strategist asks about your situation, picks a framework that fits, and shows it in your brief before the analysis runs. * **You know which framework you want:** open **Generate Framework**, find it under its category and click **Select**. If you're unsure where to start, SWOT is a common first run because it covers both internal and external factors. ## Related * [Generate a framework](/docs/strategy/generate-framework) * [Work with framework results](/docs/strategy/framework-results) * [Strategy Builder](/docs/strategy/strategy-builder) * [Strategy plans](/docs/strategy/billing/plans) ## Related topics - [Generate a framework](/docs/strategy/generate-framework.md) - [Run Capital Allocation Framework in StratEngine](/docs/strategy/frameworks/capital-allocation-framework.md) - [Run Profit Pools Analysis in StratEngine](/docs/strategy/frameworks/profit-pools-analysis.md) - [Run Return on Strategic Assets in StratEngine](/docs/strategy/frameworks/return-on-strategic-assets.md) - [Run SIPOC in StratEngine](/docs/strategy/frameworks/sipoc.md) This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
