# Les 100 produits qui ont changé le monde

> Toutes les notes par Claude (IA) · PRODUITS · LES 100 QUI ONT CHANGÉ LE MONDE
> https://doaipm.com/fr/great-products/

Uniquement des produits commerciaux réellement vendus et réellement utilisés à grande échelle. Ce qui est jugé, c’est le produit lui-même — ni la capitalisation de l’entreprise, ni la légende du fondateur. Six attributs, un score OVR, et des portraits qui allument la liste un produit à la fois.

## La méthode de notation

Chaque attribut est noté de 0 à 99, puis pondéré en un score global OVR (Originalité 20 % · Échelle 20 % · Impact 15 % · Expérience 15 % · Business 15 % · Durabilité 15 %). Classement par OVR décroissant. La grande différence avec le classement des personnes, c’est la durabilité : les produits meurent, et un produit mort ne peut pas bien noter sur cet axe — la Model T, le Walkman et la Famicom y perdent des places, volontairement. Toutes les notes sont produites par Claude, le modèle d’IA d’Anthropic : doaipm fixe les critères, Claude note en toute indépendance. Pas d’accord ? Venez en débattre.

ORG Originalité 20% · SCL Échelle 20% · IMP Impact 15% · EXP Expérience 15% · BIZ Business 15% · DUR Durabilité 15%

## Prologue · N° 0

**The wheel** — Mesopotamia, c. 3500 BCE · Where products begin

La roue n’est pas notée : pas d’entreprise, pas de marque, pas de prix, et personne à créditer. Elle est là pour rappeler que l’histoire des produits est bien plus ancienne que celle du commerce — ce classement ne commence à compter qu’au jour où quelqu’un en a vécu.
