Turn the legacy Minimum Proof into a small, manual, observable pilot plan with explicit stop, revise, and proceed criteria.
Minimum Proof Builder
The source calls for a very small number of participants on each relevant side and a few manually coordinated matches. This builder helps make “small” and “observable” explicit.
Consent or rights cannot be handled safely; participants misunderstand the core promise after clarification; a required review blocks the chosen test; or delivery cannot be completed within the stated boundary.
If people commit but matching repeatedly fails, revise criteria or artifact format. If acquisition fails, revise segment, promise, or channel before changing everything else.
Completed matches plus manageable support and credible repeat intent may justify a deeper bounded cycle. They do not justify extrapolation to a market.
