Project strength and demand confidence are measured separately.SOURCE EVIDENCE

Recruit: Recruit people who perform the workflow with real controls, reconciliations or reporting deadlines.
Guardrail: Use anonymized or synthetic records and require human review for financial decisions and regulated outputs.
Interview five finance operators, analysts or accountants
- Show me the last failure and its logs.
- What triggered it and how often does it recur?
- How do you detect it today?
- What does recovery require?
- What would a safe failure look like?
Run the smallest experiment
Add one narrow guardrail, retry or recovery path around the failing step. Replay three real failure cases and compare recovery time.
The same failure is recovered faster in three real cases without creating a new incident.Use anonymized or synthetic records and require human review for financial decisions and regulated outputs.Make a build decision
- Build: repeated pain and active commitment
- Narrow: pain is real but the audience or job differs
- Stop: weak frequency or no behavioral proof
