Why these exist

Use these tools before choosing a product or project

Sometimes you need a number before a decision meeting, a way to sort a list of ideas or a straight answer about whether a project is worth doing.

A readiness check should be able to recommend waiting. An ROI method should also show when the numbers do not support the project.

Choose the question you need to answer

01

Workflow automation readiness

Six checks show whether a process is stable enough to automate and which condition is holding it up. Free, no email and no process detail leaves your browser.

AI readiness assessment

Questions

Questions people ask us

Are these tools free?
Most are, and the ones that ask for an email say so on the card before you click. The calculators and the assessment need nothing.
Will the ROI calculator just tell me to hire you?
No. It will tell you when a payback period runs past two years and recommend not proceeding, which happens often enough that we built it in deliberately.
Can I use these with my own team or another supplier?
Yes. The decision matrix and the health check are designed to be taken to whoever you like. They are more useful to you that way and we would rather be useful.
