How to Validate an AI PoC

Validating an AI PoC means checking that it meets the success criteria you defined up front: the model works technically, delivers measurable value, and can be scaled into an MVP.

  • Evaluate on a held‑out test set that reflects real usage.
  • Compare against baselines (manual process or simpler automation).
  • Collect stakeholder feedback from real demos.
  • Document risks, limitations, and next‑step recommendations.

See the AI PoC Development pillar page for how validation feeds into MVP and production decisions.
