SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Researches and compares technologies to support architecture and platform decisions. It structures the research, collects evidence, and delivers ADR-ready decisions with actionable next steps.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Frame the decision and convert research into a decision-ready output, including an ADR draft and PoC plan.
  • Evaluate 2-4 candidate options using a predefined evaluation framework and source hierarchy.
  • Generate ADR drafts, PoC plans, and tracking artifacts with recommended next steps, risks, and trade-offs.
  • Export evidence-rich reports that leverage primary sources and high-signal references.

Quick Start

Provide a technology evaluation prompt (e.g., "Compare FastAPI vs Spring Boot for a new microservice") to generate a decision pack.

FAQPage Schema
How do I evaluate technologies for architecture and platform decisions?▼

To evaluate technologies for architecture and platform decisions, you research and compare 2-4 candidate options using a defined evaluation framework and source hierarchy to generate an evidence-based, decision-ready output.

What is an ADR draft and how does it support tech selection?▼

An ADR draft is an Architecture Decision Record that documents tech selection research outcomes, capturing recommended next steps, risks, and trade-offs to convert technology evaluation evidence into a formal decision-ready artifact.

How do I create a PoC plan after comparing candidate technologies?▼

You create a PoC plan after comparing candidate technologies by extracting tracking artifacts and actionable next steps from the evaluation framework, structuring proof-of-concept validation tests for the chosen architecture decision.

Can I compare multiple frameworks for a new microservice architecture?▼

Yes, you can compare multiple frameworks for a new microservice architecture by providing a technology evaluation prompt to assess 2-4 candidate options and generate a comprehensive decision pack with trade-offs.

What is the best way to structure tech selection research evidence?▼

The best way to structure tech selection research evidence is to apply a predefined source hierarchy and standardized report templates, leveraging primary sources to export evidence-rich reports for architecture decisions.

When do I need a formal decision pack for technology evaluation?▼

You need a formal decision pack for technology evaluation when supporting product initiatives that require structured architecture and platform decisions, delivering ADR drafts and PoC plans to frame the decision process.
