What it brings your problem-solving team
In this situation teams usually settle for the middle ground. TRIZ asks a different question: how do we get both? TRIZ studio lets you ask that question on your real problem, step by step and on record.
When improving one thing makes another worse
- Speed up and quality suffers, add strength and weight grows, add capacity and cost rises — in the end the team accepts a trade-off.
- Brainstorming circles around familiar solutions; the team cannot step outside the frame it is used to.
- TRIZ knowledge stays in books and in the trainer's notes; applying it to an everyday problem feels hard.
- Ideas get lost in meeting notes; nobody tracks which idea was chosen, why, and whether it was implemented.
It names the contradiction
The problem is expressed as an improving and a worsening parameter out of 39 standard ones; the team speaks the same language.
The real Contradiction Matrix
Altshuller's classic 39×39 matrix is built in; for recorded pairs the principles come straight from the matrix.
Suggestions for your problem
grupas.ai writes how each principle could apply to this problem; you choose and edit the suggestions.
Direction from the Ideal Final Result
The IFR and the constraints to remove give an ideality reference for judging ideas.
Classic TRIZ tools on one page
9 Windows, function and resource analysis, physical contradiction and separation principles, Su-Field, evolution trends and ARIZ.
Which step, and when
The nine-step roadmap shows what is done and what comes next; grupas.ai suggests skippable steps with reasons.
A share-ready report
Problem, contradiction, principles, IFR, solution ideas and toolkit outputs in a single PDF file.
Training and practice together
TRIZ studio was built for use in Grupas's training and consulting work: concepts, example cases and practice exercises in the same application; it runs in the browser with nothing to install.
Six capabilities, one application
TRIZ studio capabilities follow the natural order of a TRIZ study: define, find the contradiction, solve, go deeper, report — and learn TRIZ.
For every team facing technical and business contradictions
Manufacturing and engineering
Product design, tooling and process, machinery, materials, energy: contradictions between performance, weight, speed, cost and reliability.
R&D, product and software development
New product ideas, electronics and software systems; technical trade-offs such as speed versus memory or performance versus heat.
Training, consulting and business processes
TRIZ training and workshops, universities; service and business processes with contradictions such as speed versus quality.
- R&D, design and product development engineers
- Process, production and quality engineers
- Innovation and continuous improvement teams
- TRIZ trainers, academics and consultants
