The Business Model Canvas is a strategic management template used for developing new business models and documenting existing ones.[2][3] It offers a visual chart with elements describing a firm's or product's value proposition, infrastructure, customers, and finances,[1] assisting businesses to align their activities by illustrating potential trade-offs.

The nine "building blocks" of the business model design template that came to be called the Business Model Canvas were initially proposed in 2005 by Alexander Osterwalder,[4] based on his earlier work on business model ontology.[5] Since the release of Osterwalder's work around 2008,[6] new canvases for specific niches have appeared.
