Test feasibility
Prototyping is a valuable way to test if a product or idea is feasible before investing heavily. By building a basic version, teams can see if it's technically possible, spot challenges, and check if it meets security or compliance standards. For example, a company might want to create a wearable health device. A prototype helps test if it can securely handle health data and meet privacy laws. This identifies security issues early.
Prototyping also helps get buy-in from stakeholders. Showing a working model demonstrates value and addresses concerns. It allows testing integrations with other services to ensure smooth operation.
