Proof of Value to Managed AI
At Common Forge Ventures, our Proof of Value (PoV) Partnership Model helps organizations move beyond theoretical AI experiments to validated, measurable business outcomes.
We partner with your team to define a targeted opportunity, design and deploy a working prototype, identify the steps to production, and quantify the value of a solution or set of solutions specific to your business. Our AI-driven solutions gain traction and viability by proving the concept in a pilot case then expanding the functionality with continuous improvement to drive ongoing ROI. We manage the AI, so you can focus on running your business.
What is a PoV to Managed AI?
In our PoV to Managed AI model, Common Forge becomes your embedded AI operations partner:
Phase 1: Prove the Value. We co-define measurable success metrics, prototype a targeted AI solution, and quantify impact through real-world data.
Phase 2: Operationalize. Once value is validated, we productionize the solution, embedding it in your operating model, integrating with enterprise systems, and setting up observability, compliance, and automation.
Phase 3: Manage and Optimize. Through an ongoing managed service, we monitor performance, retrain models, maintain infrastructure, and expand use cases to ensure Common Forge and the AI tools continue to deliver business value month after month.
This partnership structure allows your organization to move quickly, prove results confidently, and scale AI responsibly without the overhead of building internal AI operations from scratch.
Why use us?
Strategic Alignment with Measurable Goals
Every PoV begins with a clear business challenge and success metric, whether it’s cost savings, process efficiency, or new revenue opportunity. Our model is aligned with our partners’ objectives in that the investment is directly tied to outcomes and ROI generated by the tools and processes developed, maintained, and improved.
Shared Investment, Clear Return
Common Forge invests in the outcome with your business. We will co-create a PoV, which minimizes risk by focusing investment where value is visible. Once we validate both the performance and ROI of each use case, Common Forge manages and improves the AI tools, so you can focus on your business.
Collaborative Co-Creations
We work as an embedded partner with your team. Together, we iterate, test, and validate ideas using live data, ensuring relevance and adoption across departments. We do not force a fit, yet we will quickly pivot when needed and test new hypotheses with your team
Proven Path to Production
Once value is proven, we harden and expand the prototype for production, deploying secure, scalable infrastructure and integrating with your enterprise systems and operating model. The roadmap is agreed upon, tracked, and executed with constant feedback loops from your team.
Simple, seamless, streamlined.
