# Pick the right use case

> Screen candidate use cases against evidence, feasibility, controls, and materiality.

Select the problem before choosing the implementation. A technically successful build still fails its purpose if the use case is unsupported by process evidence, difficult to control, or too small to justify its operating cost.

## The screens

### Account for uneven model capability

AI can perform well on one task and fail on an adjacent one. Do not assume a use case is feasible because a similar one worked. Carry several candidates into testing.

### Account for the required accuracy

Early candidates are easier to test when the work is frequent, the inputs already appear in the Company Brain, and a person can catch likely errors before they cause harm. Work that requires near-perfect accuracy needs stronger deterministic controls and may not suit an agent.

### Qualify each candidate

Apply three tests:

| Test | What it means |
| - | - |
| Evidence | Grounded in observed work, not assumption |
| Deployment readiness | Ships without new procurement, IT, or vendor review |
| Materiality | Clears a meaningful value threshold |

### Know when to decline

Decline a candidate when the work depends on irreducible human judgment, regulations require human review, or the expected benefit cannot justify the build and operating cost.

### Apply an enterprise bar

Prioritize work with a durable, named owner and a measurable effect on a team, value stream, or system of record. Separate that from improvements that benefit only one person's working style.

## Finding the candidates

The screens above tell you what to keep. To generate the candidates in the first place, [Find transformation opportunities](/guides/find-opportunities) covers the tool chain for scanning the process tree and ranking what comes back. [Form a transformation thesis](/guides/transformation-thesis) goes deeper on a single candidate, including its blast radius.

Once you know what to solve, choose the shape it should take in [What you can build](/transformation/what-you-can-build).
