AI Readiness Audit
Your team is debating where AI fits. Marketing wants a chatbot. Ops wants automation. Engineering wants to experiment with agents. Nobody agrees on what to build first, and the cost of choosing wrong is a quarter of engineering time burned on the wrong initiative.
This fixed-price engagement answers that question in one week. You get a clear, actionable document you can hand to your team on Monday morning, built on direct experience shipping AI systems across healthcare, SaaS, retail, and local businesses.
What You Get
| Deliverable | Details | |---|---| | 10-Page Strategic Roadmap PDF | Prioritized opportunities mapped to your current infrastructure and business goals | | Tech Stack Recommendation | Specific tools, models, and vendors with rationale for each choice | | Implementation Priorities | A phased plan with estimated effort, cost, and expected ROI for each initiative | | Risk Assessment | Data privacy, vendor lock-in, and organizational readiness scored and explained | | 30-Minute Walkthrough Call | Live review of the deliverable with Q&A so nothing gets lost in translation |
This is not a generic framework with your logo pasted on it. Every recommendation is grounded in the same systems thinking I applied when cutting Eventbrite's API costs by 99.7% and building production RAG pipelines for Spanish-speaking SMBs.
Who This Is For
- SMBs exploring their first AI investment. You have heard the pitch from three vendors. None of them explained the ongoing costs, and you are not sure which one is selling you something you do not need.
- Founders before committing engineering resources. Your CTO says "we could build this." Your board says "should we?" This audit answers the second question with data.
- Ops Leaders hunting for margin. You know there are automation candidates in your workflows. You need someone who has actually built these systems to tell you which ones are worth the investment.
Investment
A misdirected AI initiative at a 10-person company costs $50-150K in wasted engineering time. This audit identifies those risks before you spend them.
$3,500 fixed price. One-week turnaround from intake to deliverable.
The engagement starts with a $300 strategy session where we align on scope, constraints, and goals. That amount is credited toward the $3,500 total, so if you proceed, the session is free.
- 60-minute focused session
- Actionable next steps document
- Fully credited toward projects
The Process
- Intake Form (Day 1). You complete a structured questionnaire covering your stack, team, data assets, and goals.
- Analysis (Days 2-4). I review your responses, research your industry landscape, and build the roadmap.
- Deliverable (Day 5). You receive the 10-page PDF within five business days.
- Walkthrough (Day 5-7). We meet for 30 minutes to review findings, answer questions, and discuss next steps.
What Happens After the Audit
The roadmap is yours whether or not we work together again. If the audit reveals opportunities worth pursuing, we can move into an AI Consulting engagement - fractional leadership, zero-to-one engineering, or a production sprint, depending on what the roadmap recommends.
