Not build-once-and-stop, but a set-up for continuous improvement. Which dead ends it suits, and what we do and do not promise — stated up front.
Lab Development does not deliver a fixed specification. It works alongside your team, learning as it builds and improving continuously. How you use AI is part of that learning.
If one of these sounds familiar, Lab Development may fit.
A delivered system nobody in-house can change. Every change needs a quote and an order, so small improvements have stopped.
In Lab Development, improvement is ongoing monthly work.
Individuals experiment with AI, but nothing enters the team’s workflow. The judgement about what to hand to AI never stays in-house.
In Lab Development, how to use AI is decided together, inside real work.
You have developers, but daily operations leave no room for anything new. Outsourcing does not grow in-house knowledge.
In Lab Development, we build together with your team, so the know-how stays with you.
The team, roles, contract form and security arrangements are set out in writing with the proposal.
Minimum Development is the shape for “build something small that works first”; Lab Development is the shape for “learn as you build and keep improving”. You can start with Minimum Development and move to Lab Development in month three.
The table scrolls sideways
| Aspect | Minimum Development | Lab Development |

| Purpose | Build one small working thing | Learn as you build; keep improving |
| Time horizon | Decide monthly whether to continue | Assume continuity; review content monthly |
| Your team’s involvement | Use it and give feedback | Build together and take on the way of working |
