AI Readiness Assessment

Honest review of your data, processes, and team readiness for AI.

Overview

What we deliver

We assess your data, systems, governance, and team capability to give you a clear view of where AI will work and where it will not.

We help leadership teams cut through AI noise with a structured assessment of what is actually ready to support production use cases. Our team reviews your data sources, integration points, model and tooling options, governance posture, and the operating model behind it all. We interview business and technical stakeholders to understand goals, constraints, and existing pilots, then test those against real readiness criteria. The output is a written assessment that names which use cases are viable now, which need foundational work, and which should wait. We include a gap analysis, risk register, and a sequencing plan so you can invest with confidence. The goal is not to sell AI. It is to give you an honest read on where AI will create value, where it will stall, and what to fix before you commit budget or vendor contracts.

Client stories

What clients say

"

We had been prototyping an AI quoting agent for nine months and could not get it past demo quality. They came in, scoped a real eval set, swapped our retrieval layer, and added guardrails for the edge cases that kept burning us. Went live in seven weeks. It now handles 41 percent of inbound quote requests without a human touching them.

Our LCP was 4.8 seconds and Google was punishing us for it. They audited the build, dumped two plugins we did not need, moved hero images to a real CDN, and rewrote the critical CSS. LCP came down to 1.6 seconds within three weeks. Bounce rate on the pricing page dropped by a quarter without us touching the copy.
