AI Development: Complete Guide for Production Teams
What to verify before a custom AI project starts
Custom AI development succeeds or fails largely on factors decided before any model training begins - data readiness, a genuine evaluation plan, and a monitoring approach for after launch. These deserve as much scrutiny as the vendor's technical credentials.
This checklist covers what to verify upfront.
Why data readiness deserves honest assessment before committing
A vendor who commits to a timeline and budget before genuinely assessing whether your data is sufficient and clean enough is setting expectations that often don't survive contact with reality once development starts.
An honest data readiness assessment upfront prevents this mismatch.
What's included
- An honest data readiness assessment before timeline or budget commitments
- A concrete evaluation plan defining what "working" actually means
- A monitoring plan for real-world performance after deployment
- Clear documentation of what was tried and why the final approach was chosen
Our process
1. Assess data readiness honestly
This should happen before firm timeline or budget commitments, not after.
2. Define evaluation criteria concretely
What "working" means should be specific and measurable, not vague.
3. Plan for post-launch monitoring
Real-world performance should be tracked, not assumed to match initial testing.

FAQs - AI Development
Should data readiness be assessed before committing budget?
Yes, ideally - committing before this assessment risks a mismatch between expectations and what's actually achievable.
What's a concrete evaluation plan?
A specific, measurable definition of what "working" means for your use case, not a vague promise of accuracy.
Does monitoring matter after launch?
Yes, real-world performance often differs from test conditions and should be tracked, not assumed.
Should the vendor document their approach?
Yes, documentation of what was tried and why helps your team understand and maintain the system later.
Is a firm timeline possible before data assessment?
Rarely reliably - honest timelines usually follow, not precede, a genuine data readiness check.
Is this piece specific to one AI vendor?
No, it's a general buyer's checklist applicable to evaluating any custom AI development vendor.
