The Drivetrain Approach is a framework for building effective data products, developed by Jeremy Howard and published by O'Reilly Media, that focuses on defining business objectives, identifying levers and actions, collecting the right data, and building models to optimize outcomes rather than simply applying machine learning techniques. This methodology emphasizes starting with desired business results and working backward to determine what data and models are needed, rather than the common inverse approach of building models first and hoping they create value.
