How an operator helps
Where AI products quietly go wrong.
Most AI features fail on cost, accuracy or trust, not on the model. An operator who has shipped AI in production looks for these early.
Costs that grow faster than revenue
Every request calls the largest model. Usage climbs and margin shrinks with it.
No way to tell if it got better
Prompts change weekly with no test set, so quality is judged by gut feel.
AI where a rule would do
A model handles work a simple lookup or form could do faster, cheaper and more reliably.
What your operator works through with you
Decide where AI earns its place
What they look at
The user problem, the job the AI does and what a non-AI version would look like.
What they push back on
Whether the AI part changes the customer outcome or just the demo.
You leave with
A clear scope: what AI does, what stays simple.
Set up a quality check you can trust
What they look at
Real customer inputs, failure cases and how you judge a good answer today.
What they push back on
Shipping changes without a small test set to compare against.
You leave with
A starter evaluation set and pass rule.
Model the cost per customer
What they look at
Requests per user, model choice, context size and your pricing.
What they push back on
Margins that only work if usage stays low.
You leave with
A cost per customer and the levers to lower it.
Plan for mistakes and trust
What they look at
What happens when the answer is wrong, slow or unavailable, and what data you send out.
What they push back on
Missing fallbacks, human review or privacy checks for sensitive data.
You leave with
Guardrails and a fallback for the riskiest step.
