The lesson

The model card covers intended users and uses, out-of-scope uses, data, performance per market, uncertainty, fairness considerations, limits and contacts.

Present to decision-makers first: what the service tells them, how reliable it is and when not to trust it. Then show reviewers the evidence: backtests, monitoring and the runbook.

Close with what you would improve and what further data would help most.

Step by step

  1. Write the model card.
  2. Prepare a demonstration of a monthly forecast.
  3. Prepare evidence slides for reviewers.
  4. Rehearse and present.
