The short answer

Paloren provides an AI use case prioritisation framework that helps teams select one workflow with enough value, evidence and ownership to justify a build.

01 / 02AI use case prioritisation

How do you prioritise AI use cases?

Score value, evidence, owner capacity and risk.

How we make this work

Start by listing candidate workflows. Score each one on business value, current evidence quality, system access, owner capacity and risk. A use case with high value but poor data may still be viable if data preparation is feasible. A use case with no owner is rarely ready. This turns selection into a testable decision rather than a technology preference.

  • Evidence readiness
  • Owner and risk

02 / 02AI use case prioritisation

What makes a first AI build suitable?

Clear inputs, outputs and reviewer.

How we make this work

A suitable first build has a repeatable workflow, accessible data, a defined output and a person who can review it. Good candidates include ticket classification, document summarisation, CRM follow-up drafts or reporting preparation. If any of these is unclear, use discovery to define the workflow before building.

  • Repeatable workflow
  • Defined output
  • Named reviewer

Before we begin

Questions we get asked, answered with numbers

Should we start with the easiest use case?

Not necessarily. Start with a workflow that has enough value and clear evidence.

What if two use cases score equally?

Choose the one with the clearer owner and test plan.

Can we run several at once?

Usually no. A first build should prove the pattern before scaling.

What if the best candidate has poor data?

Assess data preparation feasibility before ruling it out.
