Are Your GenAI Ideas Stuck in “PoC Zombie” Mode?
GenAI ideas are everywhere, but too many stall in pilots that quietly consume time, budget, and attention without ever proving real value.
To win, you need to test, validate, and prioritize GenAI ideas before you commit to full-scale delivery.
The Challenge
Most organizations lack a clear approach to deciding which GenAI ideas to pursue, how to test them, and when to stop or scale. This can make it hard to answer questions like:
- Which GenAI ideas have the highest potential impact?
- Do we have the data, architecture, and models to deliver this?
- Will users and customers adopt this solution in the real world?
- Can we deliver this solution profitably?
- Which PoCs should we scale, iterate, or kill, and how do we decide?
Without a validation framework, PoCs linger, decisions drag, and confidence in your GenAI program erodes…
Our Solution
Testing & Validating GenAI Ideas is a structured digital diagnostic that:
- Benchmarks how effectively you prioritize and validate GenAI ideas.
- Highlights your biggest gaps in testing technical feasibility and solution-market fit.
- Provides targeted recommendations to move from PoC zombies to a focused portfolio of validated, scalable opportunities.
In a single hour, you move from “we have a lot of pilots” to a clear view of which ideas to test, scale, or stop, and what to do next.
Areas of Focus
- Prioritizing High-Potential Ideas – How you source, screen, and rank GenAI ideas based on value, risk, and strategic fit.
- Assessing Technical Feasibility – How you evaluate data readiness, architecture, tooling, and GenAI capabilities required to deliver the solution.
- Assessing Solution / Market Fit – How well you validate user needs, workflows, and value before committing significant effort.
- Proceed or Iterate – How you turn experiment results into clear go / no-go / pivot decisions with agreed criteria and governance.
- Update Dev Roadmap – How you translate validation outcomes into a prioritized delivery roadmap for your GenAI portfolio.
