What is Proof of concept (POC)?

A short, structured trial of a tool on your own systems and use cases, run before signing a contract to confirm it works as promised.

Proof of concept explained

For digital adoption platforms, a POC usually lasts two to four weeks and covers two or three real workflows on your own application, with one built by your own content author.

Agree success criteria before the POC starts, such as build time, reliability on complex screens and the usefulness of analytics.
