LOW-RISK VALIDATION

Test the problem before building the business.

Automate one painful workflow with a measurable before/after time or error metric.

WATCH OUT FOR

Keep the offer credible.

Do not automate high-risk decisions without human review, and do not build fragile chains with no monitoring.
