About this prompt
This prompt helps AEs and SEs scope a proof-of-concept that proves value, ends on time, and creates a reason to buy. It drafts a scope document with measurable success criteria, explicit in-scope and out-of-scope lists, a timeline, customer commitments, a decision gate, and risk flags. Use it when a POC is on the table and you want to avoid scope creep, a missing success bar, or no end date.Most POCs die from scope creep, no agreed success bar, or no end date, and a one-sided POC where only your side commits is a trap. This prompt drafts a scope document built to be signed off: mutually agreed, measurable success criteria with no moving goalposts, explicit in-scope and out-of-scope lists where the out-of-scope list is what protects you, a phased plan with a hard end date, customer commitments written as commitments for access, data, people, and a decision, and a decision gate defining the explicit next step toward purchase so a passing POC does not just lead to another POC. Provide the ACCOUNT, THEIR EVALUATION GOAL, the USE CASE to test, the TECHNICAL CONTEXT and constraints, their POC OWNER and evaluators, your SE TIME AVAILABLE, and the DATES under pressure. It flags the two or three ways this becomes a time-sink with a guardrail for each. Use this to scope and govern the POC up front, ahead of the architecture review or due-diligence stages. A tip: if the customer cannot name what success looks like, the prompt flags that as the first thing to resolve, so push to define THEIR EVALUATION GOAL concretely before the POC starts.The prompt
A POC is on the table for [ACCOUNT]. Most POCs die from scope creep, no clear success bar, or no end date. Help me scope one that proves value, ends on time, and creates a reason to buy when it's done
