The paid front door · Step one

Find out if AI would actually work in your business, before you pay to find out the hard way.

The AI Readiness Audit reads your business the way a model would and tells you plainly what's documented, what lives only in people's heads, and where a build would break. It's a diagnostic, not a pitch, and the verdict is honest either way.

$750, fixed · The fee credits toward the AI build.

What it is.

A structured look at whether your business is ready for AI, before you spend a dollar building anything. We sit with the workflow you want to automate and try to write it down completely, and we watch for the exact points where it can't be written down. Those gaps are where builds die, and finding them on day one is the entire job.

The thesis underneath it is simple: AI only amplifies what it can read. If your process exists nowhere a machine can see, the model fills the blank with confident, plausible fiction. The audit finds the blank pages while they're still cheap to fix.

What we score.

The audit scores your baseline across four dimensions. Each one is a place an AI project quietly dies, so each one gets checked before you commit to anything.

DimensionWhat we checkWhy it matters
Data hygieneWhether your records are structured, consistent, and actually filled in.Messy inputs make a messy build, no matter how good the model is.
Process documentationWhether the workflows you want to automate are written down well enough that a stranger could run them.A model reads the documentation, not your best employee's instinct.
Systems & integrationsWhat your stack can actually expose to an AI, and where the data is trapped.AI can only act on what your systems let it see and touch.
Team readinessWhether the people who run the work today are set up to run it with AI tomorrow.The rollout fails at the desk, not in the model, when the team isn't ready.

What you walk away with.

  • A structured working session inside the workflow you want to automate, with the people who run it.
  • A written readiness assessment scored across the four dimensions.
  • A plain verdict: ready, or not yet, and exactly why.
  • A roadmap for the next step, whichever direction the verdict points.

The audit ends one of two ways.

Both outcomes are wins. The expensive outcome is the one where nobody checked.

Verdict: ready

We build.

The roadmap becomes the build plan, and your $750 comes off the price of the AI implementation. The audit cost you nothing.

About AI Implementation

Verdict: not yet

We fix the foundation first.

The roadmap names exactly what has to be documented or cleaned up before AI can help, and Operational Foundations is the path to get there. The audit just saved you a failed build, which is worth a lot more than $750.

About Operational Foundations

Who it's for.

  • You're curious about AI but concerned about doing it wrong in a business that can't afford the mistake.
  • You've been pitched tools and demos and want one honest read before you spend real money.
  • You suspect your processes live in people's heads, and you'd rather find out for $750 than after a failed build.

Why it isn't free.

A free assessment is a sales call wearing a lab coat, and everybody knows it. A paid diagnostic can afford to tell you the truth, including the truth nobody selling AI wants to say out loud: not yet. It's $750 fixed, the fee credits toward the AI build if you move forward, and the verdict is yours to act on either way, with us or without us.

Questions

Before you ask.

How much does the AI Readiness Audit cost?

It's $750, fixed. If you move forward with an AI build, that fee credits toward the build. It does not credit toward Operational Foundations, which is its own separate work.

What do I actually get for the $750?

A structured working session inside the workflow you want to automate, a written readiness assessment scored across four dimensions, a plain verdict of ready or not yet with the reasons, and a roadmap for the next step whichever direction the verdict points.

What does the audit score?

Four dimensions: data hygiene, process documentation, systems and integrations, and team readiness. Each one is a place an AI project quietly dies, so each one gets checked before you commit to anything.

What if the audit says we're not ready?

That's a normal and useful outcome. The roadmap names exactly what has to be documented or cleaned up first, and Operational Foundations is the path to get there. Finding that out for $750 is a lot cheaper than paying for a failed build.

Why isn't the assessment free?

A free assessment is a sales call wearing a lab coat. A paid diagnostic can afford to tell you the truth, including the truth nobody selling AI wants to say out loud: not yet.

Do we have to build with EffiWise afterward?

No. The verdict and the roadmap are yours to act on either way, with us or without us.

Book the audit.

Tell us about the workflow you're thinking about automating and we'll take it from there. If a fit call makes more sense first, that's free and thirty minutes.
