What could be the evidence as an employee in an AI start-up for OC1

To demonstrate innovation in OC1, you should provide a document that explains your innovation and includes supporting evidence such as screenshots, a detailed explanation of the process, and any other relevant details. Also important to include validation attesting to your innovation, such as patent, a letter from your employer.

Innovation is showcased by solving a problem in a unique way that is not already present in the market. For example, if your innovation is a new method for making a product that is more efficient than current methods, this could be considered innovative. E g a new technological process for recycling plastic that is more efficient than existing ones. Rule of thumb: is the way I’ve done this currently existing in the ecosystem or not?

Supporting evidence such as cost savings, increased production, or other positive impact can be used to strengthen your claim, but they cannot be considered innovation on their own. OC1 focuses on aspects of innovation and not impact, even though impact can make a strong point, but it’s not enough without the innovation itself.
