A Proof of Concept (PoC) is an early-stage version of a product created to test and validate the feasibility of an idea. POCs provides a low-risk, cost-effective and real-world demonstration of the technology, allowing for performance to be assessed and learnings to be acquired through experience, interaction and feedback. The results from this stage provide opportunity for an informed evaluation as to whether development should proceed.
Having an efficient way of building a PoC is the only way to de-risk your investment and ensure you turn your AI initiatives into success. Specifically, a good PoC allows you to:
De-risk development through up-front planning, strategy and informed risk assessment.
Retain IP ownership to anything Brainpool builds on your behalf.
Avoid over-investment before feasibility has been validated.
Get expert opinion on the best solution to the problem.
A common mistake made by companies is hiring a single data scientist to validate an AI strategy and build a PoC. Unfortunately, very few data scientists have the suite of engineering and DevOps skills necessary to make a PoC a success. And those that do come with exctremely high recruitment costs.
Brainpool team of data scientists, engineers, frontend, backend, DevOps, industry experts will build your PoC confidently and cost-efficiently at the same price as an average recruitment cost to hire a single data scientist. Brainpool’s PoC development team typically consists of:
AI Project Manager
Data Scientist
Data Engineer
DevOps Specialist
Brainpool teams have helped clients from a range of different industries build PoCs and validate their ideas. Before going to the trouble of hiring your own in-house team, have Brainpool prove that your AI solution will work in practice and de-risk your investment.
