ai readiness assessment
AI readiness assessment for small businesses.
An AI readiness assessment checks whether a business has what AI needs to work: good information, written steps, connected tools, and someone who owns the change.
Mine is free: eight questions that take about 90 seconds. You get a score out of 100, the weakest of four areas, and the first workflow I would build. Your score shows on screen whether or not you leave your email.
01 / 08
Where does your customer and lead information actually live?
What it measures
Four areas decide whether AI will stick.
The questions ask whether the basics AI depends on are in place, which any business can answer honestly, whatever it sells.
- 01
Data and process
Whether the raw material for automation exists at all.
- 02
Systems and visibility
Whether your tools talk, and whether you can see what happened.
- 03
Speed and capacity
What the business does with time and with inbound signals.
- 04
People and ownership
Whether anyone is responsible for how the work gets done.
The checklist
The 12-point AI readiness checklist.
To check it yourself first, count how many of these are true today. The first eight match the assessment, and the last four are about your people.

What to do with your score
Your score points to one next step.
0 to 44
Start with one thing
Hours and leads are slipping in ways nobody counts. The first build is the easiest one you will ever do. The call finds which one.
45 to 84
One workflow pays for the rest
Some of it runs on its own, and much of it runs on someone remembering. One well-chosen workflow usually changes the week. Book a call, or start with a training for your team.
85 to 100
You may not need me
The systems are doing real work and someone owns them. Browse the workflow library for ideas, and talk to me only if there is an edge nobody has automated yet.
If your weak spot is people, the hands-on AI Workshop covers the privacy rules, the tools, and practice on real work.
Questions
About the AI readiness assessment.
What is an AI readiness assessment?
It checks whether a business has what AI needs to work: good information, written steps, connected tools, and someone who owns the change. Mine scores those four areas from eight questions and names the weakest one.
How long does it take?
About 90 seconds. There are eight questions, each with four answers.
Is it free?
Yes. Your score shows on screen whether or not you leave your email.
What do I get at the end?
A score out of 100, how you did in each of the four areas, your weakest link, and the first workflow I would build to fix it.
Is it the same as a paid AI readiness assessment?
No. A paid assessment goes through your actual tools and data over a week or more. This one gives you a fast first read from your own answers. The cost guide shows what paid assessments cost.
What happens to my answers?
They are stored where only I can open them, and I do not sell your information to anyone. The privacy policy explains what is stored and where.
