Considering AI but not sure where to start

You know AI is relevant to your business but the landscape is overwhelming. The assessment cuts through the noise and identifies exactly what is worth your time and money.

Already using AI tools without a clear strategy

Disconnected AI tools create inefficiency and risk. The assessment maps what you have, identifies gaps, and gives you a coherent picture of how to move forward.

Preparing for a larger AI or digital transformation

If a bigger change is coming (new systems, new hires, a consultant engagement), the readiness assessment ensures you are making decisions based on accurate information about your own business.

What the Assessment Covers

Five structured areas. Every one reviewed by a human with direct experience implementing AI in small business environments.

01

Current Process Review

We map your existing business workflows to identify where time is spent, where bottlenecks occur, and where repetitive tasks are concentrated. These are the areas where AI tools typically deliver the fastest return.

02

Technology Stack Audit

We review the tools and platforms your business already uses, including CRM, email, scheduling, accounting, and communication, and assess which ones have AI features available, which have strong AI integrations, and which are candidates for replacement.

03

Team Capability Review

AI adoption fails when tools outpace the team using them. We assess your team's current comfort level with technology, their capacity for learning new tools, and what level of change management or training would be needed to make adoption stick.

04

AI Use Case Identification

Based on your industry, size, and workflow data, we identify specific, realistic AI use cases for your business, not generic examples, but actual tools and applications matched to what you do. Each use case is rated by implementation difficulty, cost, and expected impact.

05

Risk and Opportunity Matrix

Not every AI tool is right for every business. We document the risks specific to your situation (data privacy, compliance, vendor lock-in, team disruption) and map them against the opportunities. You get a clear picture of what is worth pursuing and what to avoid.

What You Receive

The AI Readiness Assessment is delivered as a written report, not a slide deck, not a verbal summary. A document you can act on, share with your team, and reference as your AI adoption evolves.

The accompanying roadmap is prioritized by impact and implementation complexity. The highest-value, lowest-risk starting points come first so you have a clear first move, not a list of options.

  • Written assessment report covering all five areas
  • AI use case list matched to your business
  • Risk and opportunity matrix
  • Prioritized AI adoption roadmap
  • Tool recommendations with rationale
  • Readout session to walk through findings

Common Questions

What is an AI Readiness Assessment?
A structured evaluation of whether a business is operationally prepared to adopt AI tools. It reviews current workflows, existing technology, team capability, specific AI use cases, and a risk and opportunity matrix. Delivered as a written report with a prioritized AI adoption roadmap.
Who needs this?
Small and medium businesses considering AI adoption that are not sure where to start, which tools are right for them, or whether their team and processes are ready. Also valuable for businesses already using AI tools in an unstructured way who want clarity on what is working and what is missing.
How is this different from the AI Visibility Assessment?
The AI Readiness Assessment evaluates your business's operational readiness to adopt AI tools: processes, people, technology, and use cases. The AI Visibility Readiness Assessment evaluates how visible your business is to AI-powered search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. Different questions, different deliverables.
What do I receive at the end?
A written report covering all five assessment areas, a list of AI use cases matched to your business, a risk and opportunity matrix, and a prioritized AI adoption roadmap. The roadmap identifies the highest-impact, lowest-risk starting points specific to your situation.
How much does the assessment cost?
The AI Readiness Assessment starts at $1,499. The base engagement runs 2 to 3 days with at least one day on-site, and includes the full process, technology, team capability, use case, and risk and opportunity review, delivered as a written assessment report with prioritized recommendations. Final pricing depends on business size, number of locations, and the depth of process and stack review required. Contact us for a tailored quote.
