Why we picked it This entry frames the Wizard of Oz test as one experiment in a wider validation toolkit, with clear guidance on cost, evidence strength, and how to run it. It is handy when you want to compare it against other experiments before committing time. A reliable reference for the founder who wants to run this properly rather than casually.

- Wizard of Oz gives strong evidence for relatively low cost.
- It fits after you have a signal that demand exists.
- Script the human responses so the experience stays consistent.
