Comprehensive framework for evaluating AI vendors and solutions to avoid costly mistakes. Use this skill when assessing AI vendor proposals, conducting due diligence, evaluating contracts, comparing vendors, or making build-vs-buy decisions. Helps identify red flags, assess pricing models, evaluate technical capabilities, and conduct structured vendor comparisons.
Structured 8-factor vendor evaluation framework for AI marketing tools, based on Venkatesan & Lecinski's The AI Marketing Canvas (2nd ed., Stanford Business Books, 2026). Scores each tool against EA market accessibility, data requirements, integration compatibility, team capability, and total cost in UGX, then produces a shortlist with 30-day experiment briefs. Invoke when a client has completed the ai-readiness-diagnostic and is at Canvas Step 2 (Experimentation) and is ready to select specific AI tools for structured trials. Also invoke when a client wants to compare 2–4 named tools before purchasing or committing budget.
