Discovery decision gate

Discovery should end with a decision about whether the evidence justifies moving into a more expensive exploration phase.

正文

A discovery decision gate turns early research into a clear next step. The decision can be to continue into alpha, narrow the problem, gather more evidence, or stop.

This maps cleanly to small AI product workflows: the score gate should not only rank ideas, but decide whether the next cost is justified by what has been learned.
