Quick-Start: Using the TPI Navigator

Have you ever sat through another pitch promising to “transform your business” and walked away wondering if the presenter even understood your problems? 

If your tech roadmap is jammed with flashy tools, recycled buzzwords, and shifting priorities, you’re not alone. Most teams struggle to filter genuine innovation from noise. 

That’s exactly why we built the TPI Navigator. 

What is the TPI Navigator? 

The TPI Navigator is a visual summary built from our Technology Prioritization Index (TPI). It helps you compare tech domains based on real-world business criteria, including ROI, ease of integration, maturity, and adoption. 

Each domain is scored on a scale of 1 to 3 across seven business factors: 

1. Proven Use Cases 
2. Cost Effectiveness and ROI 
3. Ease of Use and Integration 
4. Security and Compliance 
5. Maturity and Ecosystem 
6. Market Sentiment 
7. Adoption Growth 

The result is a scorecard and segment ranking that tells you whether a domain is Foundational, Emerging, or Exploratory—so you can focus where it makes sense for your business. 

Example: Cybersecurity Mini Report  

According to Galson’s Cybersecurity TPI Mini Report, this domain received a score of 19 out of 21 and ranked as a Foundational domain.  

That means: 

• It shows strong performance across most business factors 

• It’s widely adopted across industries 

• It’s ready for scaled investment 

This isn’t a surprise. With threats growing and regulations tightening, cybersecurity continues to be a key focus for businesses of all sizes. The TPI data reinforces its strength across maturity, integration, and return. It makes it a smart domain to prioritize when clarity and performance matter. 

When you use the TPI Navigator, insights like this help you: 

• Spot which tech areas are low-risk and high-readiness 

• Avoid spending cycles on domains that aren’t enterprise-ready 

• Communicate priorities across teams and stakeholders
