AI Opportunity Audit

A fixed-fee, 2–4 week assessment that tells you where AI actually pays off — and hands you a build plan you can act on, with us or without us.

What it is

The Audit answers one question with rigor: where does AI actually pay off in your business, and where will it just burn budget? Over two to four weeks we go process by process, separate the real opportunities from the hype, and give you a plan grounded in your numbers — not a generic maturity model.

It’s a fixed-fee, low-risk way to start. You walk away with a roadmap you own and can act on — whether you build it with us, with your own team, or not at all. No lock-in, no pressure to expand.

Who it’s for

  • Leaders who know AI matters but don’t know where to start
  • Teams sitting on a backlog of AI ideas with no way to rank them
  • Anyone who’s been pitched an AI project and wants an honest second opinion
  • Orgs that need a fundable plan, not a slide deck

What you get

Concrete artifacts, not a verbal summary.

01

Opportunity map

Every candidate use case across your processes, scored by value, effort, and risk — the whole field on one page.

02

Prioritized build plan

A sequenced roadmap: what to build first, what to defer, what to skip — with the reasoning behind each call.

03

Cost, risk & ROI estimates

Realistic numbers for each priority use case, grounded in your data, so you can fund the work with confidence.

04

Recommended first build

The one engagement we’d start with — scoped tightly enough that you could act on it the week we hand it over.

05

Feasibility & data-readiness notes

Where your data and systems are ready, and what has to be true before a build can actually succeed.

How it works

Three phases. Two to four weeks.

Fixed fee · fixed scope

  1. 01 Week 1

    Map

    We interview your team and walk your processes and data, building an inventory of everywhere AI could plausibly help.

  2. 02 Week 2

    Rank

    We score each candidate by value, effort, and risk, and pressure-test feasibility against your real systems and data.

  3. 03 Weeks 3–4

    Plan

    We turn the ranking into a sequenced build plan with cost, risk, and ROI — and the first build we’d recommend. We walk you through it live.

How we engage & price

One flat fee.
No billing surprises.

The Audit is a fixed fee, agreed before we start. You know the number up front, and it doesn’t change whether the work takes us two weeks or four. That’s deliberate: the Audit exists to de-risk your decision, so it shouldn’t carry billing risk of its own.

Most clients use it as a low-commitment first step. Many go on to a Build; some take the plan and run with it themselves. Both are fine — the roadmap is yours either way.
