What you'll learn

Why skipping a POC is the costliest AI mistake

AI moves fast, but bad assumptions move faster. Skipping validation is why most projects fail before they ever ship.

Frameworks that structure your AI thinking

We apply the Value Proposition Canvas, Lean Canvas, and Customer Journey Map directly to AI projects with a real exampl

How to validate your idea without building it

Use OKRs, customer discovery, and first principles thinking to test if your idea has legs before you commit to a build.

Build a reusable POC playbook from scratch

Every framework we cover gets organized into a repeatable playbook during the session and take into your next project.

Why this topic matters

Most AI projects fail not because of bad technology, but because nobody validated the idea first. Teams jump straight to building without confirming there is a real problem worth solving. This session gives you a repeatable process to test any AI project idea before committing resources to it. You will leave with a structured playbook and the frameworks own discovery.
