// RAPID PROTOTYPE

See first, then believe.

You have an idea, but don't want to invest blindly. A working prototype with your data shows whether it works, and what it delivers.

Timeline:4-8 weeks

Big promises, little proof

AI projects often fail because nobody knows if it really works. Business cases based on assumptions. Months of investment only to discover the data doesn't hold up.

  • Decisions based on PowerPoints
  • Vendors who promise but don't prove
  • No insight into ROI until it's too late

How we work

Three phases, each with a clear goal and concrete result.

01

Week 1

Intake & Scope

Together we determine what the prototype should prove. Not what's technically possible, but what your organization needs to make a decision.

  • Identify the core question
  • Data inventory: what do we have, what's missing?
  • Define success criteria
  • Define scope: what's in, what's out

Resultaat: Project brief with clear goals and criteria.

02

Week 2-5

Data & Prototype

We build a working prototype with your data. Not polished, but functional. You see weekly progress.

  • Collect and clean data
  • Train or configure AI model
  • Build interface for users
  • Iterate based on feedback

Resultaat: Working prototype you can test.

03

Week 6-8

Pilot & Handover

Testing with real users in a controlled setting. We measure what works, what doesn't, and what it delivers.

  • Select and train test group
  • Run pilot with measurement points
  • Analyze results
  • Recommendations for next steps

Resultaat: Pilot report with ROI indication and go/no-go advice.

What you get

Working prototype

Not a mockup, but functional software

Documentation

Technical and functional description

Data pipeline

Code for data processing (your property)

Pilot results

Measurable outcomes from test phase

Follow-up advice

Clear go/no-go with rationale

No black box

Everything we build is yours. The code, the data pipelines, the documentation. You can continue development yourself or hand it to another party. No vendor lock-in.

  • Full source code
  • Explanation of architecture choices
  • Handover to your team or supplier

Investment

Expect €5,000-15,000 for an initial AI Pilot: a working prototype we test together with your own people and processes. No hidden costs, clear price ceiling upfront.

CASE

Ruysdael: PoC for portfolio management

Can portfolio decisions be better substantiated with data, without someone having to read all documents for weeks first? This proof-of-concept explored how far you can get when AI does the preparatory work.

Result: working prototype that analyzes documents and calculates scenarios. Now in decision-making for further development.
