To get you started in our Foresight module, we've put together a simple sequence that gives you an overview of our key features:
1. review and inform trends & signals "manually
In the beginning, we recommend reviewing the Macro Trends without AI prioritization. To do this, click on the Trends tab in the Foresight main menu on the left.
2. mark interesting macro trends as relevant
Use the star icon to mark trends that are relevant to you even before the AI-Scout prioritization. To get additional perspectives, we recommend adding other colleagues as managers or admins.
3. create AI-Scout
AI-Scouts can be created on specific topics, interests or departments. They search millions of data and show you the most relevant trends, signals and developments. How to create an AI-Scout:
- Go to Foresight in the main menu
- Click on the AI-Scouts icon
- Enter your basic data
- Click Add AI-Scout
- Select a title and enter appropriate keywords
- Click Save
The calculation of the results may take a few minutes.
Please note at KI-Scout keywords
- English words only
- No more than 2 words per keyword
- Maximum 10 keywords
- Thematically appropriate words
- No abbreviations like "DACH
- No special characters like "-;"
4. compare AI results
At last, select the desired AI-Scout (here: Circular Economy) and compare the AI prio with the already relevant marked macro trends.
- Does the AI find trends important that have not been marked as relevant?
- What do Kolleg:Innen find relevant, but the AI does not?
The signals listed in the macro trends such as micro trends and startups can serve as orientation and assistance. They show existing use cases, solutions or companies that are also prioritized by AI!
5. evaluate relevant macro trends
In order to achieve meaningful results, it is important that several stakeholders provide their assessment. This is how you get to the trend evaluation:
- Go to a relevant marked macro trend
- Under Details you can click the Evaluate Trend button
- Evaluate the trend using the sliders
So that your rating is not influenced, the ratings of other users will be shown to you only after your own.
- 1st criterion: Competence
