Idea to Demo in 2 Weeks
From concept to working prototype — fast.
Got an idea for using AI or analytics in your business? CVM’s Idea to Demo offering helps you explore its potential quickly and cost-effectively. In just two weeks, we’ll take your concept and turn it into a working demo — a tangible prototype you can share, test, and build upon.
Whether you're pitching stakeholders, exploring a new product direction, or validating a hypothesis, our rapid prototyping process helps you move forward with clarity and confidence.
Why start with a demo?
Too many AI initiatives stall in the idea phase — bogged down by over-planning, unclear ROI, or technical uncertainty. We help you break that cycle by showing what's possible, fast.
- Validate your vision – See your idea in action and determine if it’s worth further investment.
- Align your team – A working demo is a powerful way to build shared understanding and get buy-in.
- De-risk development – Surface key technical and business considerations early.
- Accelerate momentum – Move from brainstorming to execution in a matter of days, not months.
What you get
At the end of two weeks, you’ll have:
- A clickable or interactive demo – showcasing the core functionality of your AI or analytics idea
- A brief technical architecture – outlining how the solution could scale or integrate with your systems
- A summary findings deck – highlighting what we built, what we learned, and recommended next steps
- A recorded walkthrough – so you can easily share the demo with internal stakeholders
This isn’t just a proof of concept — it’s a launchpad.
What kind of ideas?
Clients have used Idea to Demo to explore:
- AI agents for internal support or customer service
- Machine learning models for prediction, recommendation, or classification
- NLP tools for summarization, content generation, or research
- Analytics dashboards for tracking KPIs or discovering trends
- Automation of complex business workflows
Not sure if your idea is a fit? Just ask. We’re happy to give a quick opinion.
How it works
We keep the process simple, fast, and collaborative:
Week 1: Discover & Design
- We kick off with a 90-minute working session to understand your idea, goals, and constraints
- We sketch out solution options and agree on a direction
- We handle data prep, model selection, and prototype design
Week 2: Build & Deliver
- We develop the core functionality and bring your idea to life
- We test the demo with sample scenarios or real data
- We wrap up with a live walkthrough, handover, and discussion of next steps
Most of our work happens asynchronously, but we’ll check in regularly to share progress and gather feedback.
Using Your Data
Whenever possible, we recommend using your real data — even if it’s limited or messy. It helps us build a more relevant and insightful demo, and gives you a clearer picture of what’s possible in your context.
That said, we know data access can take time. If needed, we can simulate data using synthetic or public sources to move the demo forward without delay.
CVM is SOC 2 compliant, and we take data security seriously. We follow strict protocols around access, storage, and transfer — and can provide a Type 2 audit report upon request.
What’s the Catch?
No fine print — but here’s what you should know:
- It’s a demo, not a production system – The prototype is functional but not hardened for scale, security, or deployment. It’s meant to explore potential, not launch immediately.
- We work within constraints – Two weeks means tight focus. We’ll help you narrow the scope to what’s most achievable and impactful.
- Your input matters – Quick feedback helps us move fast. Availability during the sprint improves outcomes.
- No vendor lock-in – Some clients continue with us. Others use the demo internally or with another team. We're fine either way.
The goal is to reduce uncertainty and give you something real to react to. That’s it.
What it costs
We offer the Idea to Demo package at a fixed, transparent price — typically between $10K and $20K, depending on scope and complexity. This includes all design, development, and documentation — no hidden fees, no surprises.
Why CVM?
- We’ve done this before – across industries, use cases, and tech stacks
- We speak both business and engineering – and help connect the dots between vision and execution
- We move fast – but stay grounded in what’s feasible and valuable
- We’re your team – the people who lead the call are the same ones building the demo
