Does it complete the task?
We check answers, errors and access permissions. A critical failure can prevent progress even when the other cases perform well.
Validation
Test in practice. Decide with evidence.
Already have an idea or solution in mind? We put the same task to the test, with and without AI. We compare quality, team effort and cost to decide what deserves to move forward and what needs to change.
Value must show up in the work
We agree on criteria before testing and assess the complete result, including failures and corrections.
We check answers, errors and access permissions. A critical failure can prevent progress even when the other cases perform well.
We compare the time spent executing, checking and correcting. AI's speed only helps if the team's work also improves.
We relate observed costs to the benefit assessed. We also identify what still needs preparation to expand use.
Document review
For PED-042, the task ends with the outstanding issues checked and the handoff reviewed. That is the result to compare, including the work of the people checking and correcting it.
Evaluation scenario · PED-042
Order · version 1
Attachment · version 1
Required packing list not yet attached.
Without AI
Open the order and attachments to locate the data.
Cross-check destinations, check for the required list and identify the illegible page.
Record outstanding issues, cite the sources and review the next actions.
With AI support
AI extracts the fields it can read and links the documents.
AI flags differences and gaps. The team checks the alerts and anything that may have been missed.
AI proposes a summary. The team corrects it and authorizes the handoff.
Expected result in both approaches
Confirm the destination, request the packing list and ask for a legible copy of page 2. The handoff is prepared; shipment remains on hold.
Use the same orders, documents, permissions and rules. Include common cases and exceptions; control for the effect of already knowing the answer.
Record execution, review, corrections and handoff. Separate working time from time spent waiting for missing information or documents.
Count team effort, licenses and processing per completed handoff. Account for implementation and projections separately. One order demonstrates the method; a decision requires a representative sample.
From evidence to decision
If the test shows the signs below, the recommendation would be to adjust before expanding. This scenario shows how to interpret the evaluation.
Quality
But the summary does not show the source or check supporting each alert. Checking still needs to be easier.
Total effort
The reviewer still goes through the entire attachment. A benefit across the complete task has not been demonstrated.
Cost
Add up review, corrections and technology use per completed handoff before estimating savings.
The criteria are agreed before the test. The recommendation considers all the evidence and the severity of the failures.
Relevant outstanding issues are identified and can be checked, total effort improves and the cost is justified by the benefit, with no critical failures in the sample evaluated.
Plan a controlled expansion with clear responsibilities, limits and monitoring. Validation does not automatically authorize production use.
As in this scenario: AI helps with reading, but review still takes substantial effort. Incomplete sources or an insufficient sample also prevent a conclusion.
Correct the issue preventing the benefit, repeat the tests and compare again before expanding.
The solution fills in the illegible page with unsourced data, releases an order with conflicting destinations or fails to deliver a benefit that justifies the cost.
Stop the approach tested and keep the authorized process in place. Evaluate another solution or new conditions before resuming.
What your company receives
You receive a record of what was tested, a comparative evaluation and a recommendation for the next step.
Conclusions reflect the sample and conditions evaluated. Going into production has its own scope.
Objective, task, current baseline, evaluation criteria and conditions for proceeding, defined before the experiment.
Authorized sample, data sources and reference answers. We record permissions, exceptions and what was excluded from the analysis.
An experimental version or configuration of the solution, with a record of versions, the environment and execution conditions.
Quality, review effort and costs compared with current work. Measured results are kept separate from future estimates.
Evidence and conditions for the next decision. When the sample is inconclusive, we identify what still needs investigation.
How it works
Your team brings examples and assesses how useful the answers are. Gaulett prepares the test, runs the cases and analyzes the evidence with the people responsible.
Before you start
The services are independent. We can start with validation when there is a defined problem, an approach to test and a basis for comparison. If that is not yet clear, the assessment helps choose a starting point.
We record the evidence and recommend adjusting, preparing the necessary conditions or stopping the approach tested. Identifying what does not work early also helps guide investment.
The test evaluates a limited use case. Permanent integrations, operational security and production deployment are prepared during implementation.
