An Interactive Multi-Agent System for Evaluation of New Product Concepts
Product concept evaluation is a critical stage that determines strategic resource allocation and project success in enterprises. However, traditional expert-led approaches face limitations such as subjective bias and high time and cost requirements. To support this process, this study proposes an automated approach utilizing a large language model (LLM)-based multi-agent system (MAS). Through a systematic analysis of previous research on product development and team collaboration, this study established two primary evaluation dimensions, namely technical feasibility and market feasibility. The proposed system consists of a team of eight virtual agents representing specialized domains such as R&D and marketing. These agents use retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and real-time search tools to gather objective evidence and validate concepts through structured deliberations based on the established criteria. The agents were further fine-tuned using professional product review data to enhance their judgment accuracy. A case study involving professional display monitor concepts demonstrated that the system's evaluation rankings were consistent with those of senior industry experts. These results confirm the usability of the proposed multi-agent-based evaluation approach for supporting product development decisions.
Executive Impact & Key Findings
The proposed Multi-Agent System (MAS) revolutionizes product concept evaluation by combining LLM capabilities with structured multi-agent deliberation, achieving outcomes highly aligned with human expert judgment.

Evaluation Report
The system is structured around two primary evaluation dimensions: technical feasibility (patentability, technical viability, resource requirement) and market feasibility (value proposition, market potential, market opportunity). Each dimension is managed by a cross-functional team of specialized LLM agents.
Professional Display Monitor Concepts
The system was validated using three distinct professional display monitor concepts: DepthView 3D (for 3D modeling), PrecisionCAD (for industrial design), and PixelMaster (for 2D graphic/photo editing). Each concept targets a unique customer segment within the creative and technical professional market.

The fine-tuned system exhibited slightly more conservative evaluation tendencies compared to human experts (average difference of +0.31 points), which may reflect its training on professional review data emphasizing documented evidence. However, its ability to replicate human expert-level ranking judgments provides strong empirical validation for AI-augmented approaches in product development.
