About this template

Most SWOT pages die as unordered wish-lists: ten strengths claimed, zero evidenced, and no strategy built from the pairs. This worksheet forces a rating and an evidence note per item, keeps the four quadrants honest, then cross-matches them — strength×opportunity, weakness×threat — into an AI report of specific moves. It revives a familiar framework by making it accountable rather than decorative.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this SWOT different from a sticky-note version?
Every item carries a 1–5 evidence rating, and the four quadrants are cross-matched into paired strategies — the report output is moves, not lists.
Who should complete the worksheet?
The strategy team plus one outsider close to the market; external eyes keep opportunities and threats honest.
How many items belong in each quadrant?
Three to five rated items beat ten unranked ones; the scoring forces the shortlist that a workshop rarely reaches.
Is SWOT still a respected framework?
It remains a standard teaching model for internal-external scanning; this worksheet addresses its classic failure mode — no prioritization, no pairing.
What does the AI report produce?
Ranked quadrant items with evidence gaps flagged, and paired SO/ST/WO/WT strategies ready for a planning meeting.
Is it free to use?
Yes. Click Use This Template to copy the form, scoring and report configuration into your FormLM workspace for free, then customize and share it.
