Output Return an AI power audit with workflowmap, sevenpowertests, impactvsdefensibility, fakemoatdecay, evidenceandconfidence, operatingbets, ownersmetricsandtests, and killorstrengthenconditions.
Test AI Operating Advantage
Use this workflow when a company claims AI-era power from brand and trust, proprietary data or rights, distribution or talent, or an accumulated process of evaluation, review, learning, and recovery.
Output Return an AI operating advantage test with causalclaims, trusteconomics, privilegedresource, processlearningloop, imitabilityanddecay, classification, falsificationtests, and compoundinginvestments.
Test AI Scale and Network Power
Use this workflow when a company claims AI scale economies or network effects and must prove that volume lowers unit cost or participation increases per-user workflow value in a way competitors cannot readily reproduce.
Output Return a scale and network power test with causalloops, uniteconomicsbyvolume, workflowparticipantvalue, customerbehavior, rightsandtrust, competitorreplication, classification, and falsificationtest.
Test Counter-Positioning and Switching
Use this workflow when a company claims incumbents cannot copy its AI business model or customers cannot leave, and must test incumbent self-harm, response paths, valuable operating memory, performance loss, and AI-assisted migration.
Output Return a counter-positioning and switching test with entrantmove, incumbentselfharm, responsepaths, residualadvantage, customerlossmap, migrationcounterfactual, classification, and falsificationtests.
Human review
Keep consequential decisions explicit.
These workflows structure analysis and artifacts; they do not authorize autonomous external, personnel, financial, legal, security, or other high-impact action.
