A tech spike is a bounded investigation to compare 5-7 AI candidates and produce a documented evaluation matrix, PoC plan, and risk assessment to inform engineering decisions.

Plan a PoC by defining a 2-day bounded scope, collecting sources, and generating a structured evaluation matrix and recommended path to bridge AI discovery and engineering execution.

Yes, you can compare AI technologies by building a weighted matrix that evaluates 5-7 candidates with notes, sources, and risk assessments to support objective technology selection.

Technology evaluation typically requires a 2-hour discovery phase to shortlist candidates, followed by a 2-day PoC planning phase to generate a final spike report and recommendation.

The best way to document risk assessment is to generate a tech spike report that includes sources, an evaluation matrix, and a recommended path to systematically capture technology limitations.
