See if you’re ready to build with AI.
A straight read across the four things that decide whether an AI build ships or stalls — your idea, your architecture, your data, and your delivery. Nine questions, about ten minutes. No pitch — just an honest score and where to start.

A read on where you stand, before you build.
The AI Readiness Assessment is a free, ten-minute diagnostic across the four dimensions that decide whether an AI build reaches production or stalls: how clearly you know what to build, whether your architecture can hold it, whether your data can power it, and whether your team can ship it.
It’s not a generic quiz with a generic result, and it’s not a sales funnel in disguise. It’s the same diagnosis I run at depth in a paid engagement, compressed to nine questions — scored honestly, with your biggest gap named and a clear sense of where to start.
It’s also the first step, not the last word. The score orients you; the real read is the conversation it points you toward.
The most expensive decision is what to build.
95% of AI pilots never deliver measurable ROI. Most don’t fail in the build — they fail before it, because the team aimed at the wrong thing or stood it up on a foundation that couldn’t hold it. By the time that shows up, it’s cost six figures and most of a quarter.
Knowing where you actually stand — before you commit budget and a roadmap — is the cheapest way to avoid that. Ten minutes here can save you from building the right thing on the wrong foundation, or the wrong thing well.
And it tells you which move is yours. Assessment, Clarity, Launch — the work runs in that order, and the only question is where you enter it. Your score names the rung: sharpen the idea, shore up the foundation, or start building. It doesn’t just rate you — it points you.

Four dimensions, one honest read.
Nine questions across the four things that decide whether you’re ready. Here’s what each one reads — and why it matters.
Idea Clarity
Do you know the specific, high-value AI to build — or just that AI matters? The clearer and more quantified the target, the less you risk building the wrong thing well.
whether the aim is real — the Idea phase Clarity runs for you.
Architecture Foundation
Can AI build on your foundation without diverging? Documented standards, a real data model, and clean changes are what keep AI output coherent instead of collapsing in week three.
whether the foundation can hold it.
Data Readiness
Is the data your feature needs accessible, usable, and trustworthy? Data is the feasibility gate — it decides what you can actually build now versus what you’d have to earn first.
whether the data can power it.
Delivery Readiness
Can your team ship it — capacity, tools, and a track record of getting past the demo? The gap between an impressive demo and a thing in production is where most AI dies.
whether your team can get it live.
Each dimension is scored 0–100 and rolled into one overall readiness score with the weakest one flagged as your biggest gap.
Your readiness, on the record.
Your AI Readiness Score
One number, 0–100, across all four dimensions — a straight read on how ready you are to build with AI today.
Your Biggest Gap

The Full Report by Email
Everything sent to you — your score, your four dimension reads, and your biggest gap — on the record and easy to forward.
You stop guessing. You know where you stand.
In ten minutes you go from a general sense that AI matters to a specific read on where you are — what’s ready, what isn’t, and what to do about it. No budget committed, no roadmap drawn, no pitch sat through.
And you leave pointed at the right next move for your situation, not a one-size answer. That’s the whole job of the first step: to make the next one obvious.
See where you stand — in ten minutes.
Nine questions, a real score, and a clear next step. Free, and no pitch. Start now, or book a call if you’d rather walk through it together.
