The Useful AI Opportunity Canvas
Template
Frame an AI opportunity around workflow, value, trust and the cost of getting it wrong.
Workflow
- What task or decision should actually improve?
- Where does this sit in someone's existing workflow?
- What does “better” look like in that moment?
Human role
- Where does a human still need to check or decide?
- What happens when the AI is wrong and nobody notices?
- How much oversight does this opportunity realistically need?
Failure cost
- What's the worst plausible outcome if this fails quietly?
- Who is affected, and how badly?
- Is that cost recoverable?
Evidence
- What would prove this opportunity is real?
- What's the smallest test that could show it?
- What would make us walk away from it?

Have a product or AI decision to make?
Useful first calls usually start with one unclear decision, a deadline and a team that needs a practical next move.
