Evaluation-Driven Product Requirements
AI requirements must define acceptable behavior, not just screens and endpoints. This module shows how to write product requirements that include quality rubrics, failure states, unacceptable outputs, escalation paths, and measurement plans.
Deep dive summary
What this module actually teaches.
Passage 1AI requirements must define acceptable behavior, not just screens and endpoints. This module shows how to write product requirements that include quality rubrics, failure states, unacceptable outputs, escalation paths, and measurement plans.
Passage 2Learners translate customer expectations into eval datasets, human review workflows, success thresholds, and launch gates. They also learn why accuracy alone is often too blunt: groundedness, helpfulness, safety, latency, cost, and user trust may each need separate metrics.
Passage 3The module culminates in an AI PRD format that aligns product, design, engineering, legal, and support. It makes uncertainty explicit and gives teams a shared vocabulary for deciding when an AI feature is ready.
