# Monday Morning: Idea. Monday Afternoon: Prototype. Become a Builder!

> Bring an idea. We'll turn it into a digital product live: sharpen the problem, formulate requirements, build a prototype. AI is your co-builder, not your oracle.

Many teams have ideas, but they lose time between gut feelings, vague requirements, and lengthy alignment meetings. In this workshop, I demonstrate live how we use Artificial Intelligence to drastically shorten the path from idea to prototype.

## Agenda

### 1. Sharpen the Problem

Translate an idea into a clear problem statement, target audience definition, and success criteria. Instead of vague notions, concrete, testable hypotheses emerge.

### 2. Generate Requirements

Create testable requirements (user stories, acceptance criteria, edge cases) and prioritize them into a small, buildable-today scope. AI helps structure and challenge the requirements.

### 3. Build the Prototype

Build a clickable prototype of a digital product (flow, screens, copy, data mocks) and run a quick reality check.

## Interactive Elements

- **Live poll** to select an audience use case
- **Mini exercise** with a decision canvas
- **2-minute peer review** of requirements with the audience

## AI as Co-Builder

AI in this workshop is not an oracle delivering finished answers. It is a co-builder that helps iterate faster, uncover blind spots, and transform ideas into tangible results. You leave with a prototype and a concrete plan for the next 7 days.
