Innovation and Disruption Agent
A completed course project on its own GitHub branch. Not deployed.
A specialist that separates invention from innovation and tests whether an innovation is incremental, breakthrough or disruptive in a defined market.
- Why
- I wanted classifications that depend on the actual entrant, incumbent and business model rather than hype.
How I built it
- I created a specialist branch from the course scaffold.
- I wrote decision criteria using the course innovation framework.
- I tested a primary case, a contrast case and an ambiguous case.
- I saved the agent record and validation evidence.
- To copy it you need
- Start with a real product and identify the incumbent alternative, customer segment and business-model change.
Try it yourself
Copy this prompt and paste it into ChatGPT or Claude to try it yourself.
I want to build a small version of Jovan Diaz's Innovation and Disruption Agent from his What Are We Building? profile. It is a course project, so treat it as a study exercise. It separates invention from innovation and asks whether something is incremental, breakthrough or disruptive in a defined market. His gotcha: nothing earns the label disruptive without the market and adoption context. Start with a real product. Ask me to name the incumbent alternative, the customer segment and what changed in the business model, then test one clear case, one contrast case and one ambiguous case. Ask me for anything you need.
Tools I used for this project
ChatGPT: I used ChatGPT to draft, test, critique or work through the workflow.
Codex: I used Codex to help build or revise repository files and tests.
Python: I used Python scripts or validation tools to process and check structured outputs.
GitHub: GitHub holds all of my repositories: code, instructions, changes and review history.
