04 · Add useful AI

Add AI to a Product or Workflow with Clear Controls.

Start with a defined user or operating task, test feasibility against representative work and design evaluation, permissions and fallback before production.

Common signs

This Path Is Useful When…

  • People repeatedly search, summarize or classify complex information.
  • A product could create more value with contextual assistance.
  • An AI prototype works in a demo but lacks evaluation and operating controls.
  • The business needs evidence before funding a larger AI program.

What the work can include

Connect the Decision to Delivery.

The exact scope follows the workflow, evidence and constraints—not a fixed package.

  1. 01AI opportunity and data-readiness assessment
  2. 02Assistants, retrieval and enterprise search
  3. 03Agent and workflow orchestration
  4. 04Model and product integration
  5. 05Evaluation, permissions, guardrails and fallback
  6. 06Quality, latency, cost and production monitoring
Production readiness before feature volume

Production standard

Production readiness before feature volume

We define representative evaluations, permitted actions, human-review boundaries, fallback and monitoring before treating an AI prototype as a production product.

Smallest useful first step

Feasibility prototype

Test the riskiest AI capability against agreed tasks, quality thresholds, operating constraints and a non-AI fallback.
