What the AI Opportunity Assessment includes.

Most small businesses have tried AI somewhere. Very few have it running inside core operations, because the gap is implementation: knowing which workflow to fix first, what the fix is worth, and whether to build or buy it. The assessment closes that gap before you commit to anything expensive.

What I do during it

I map how the work actually moves through your operation: quoting, intake, scheduling, support, whatever your business runs on. Not the org chart version, the real version, including the spreadsheet nobody admits is load-bearing. Then I find where the hours are going and which of those hours AI can genuinely take back, and I put a number on each fix.

What you walk away with

A prioritized plan with the ROI math on each fix. Priority means ordered by payback, not by novelty: the first item on the list is the one that returns the most for the least risk. Each fix states what it costs to do, what it saves, and whether it is a build, a buy, or a process change that needs no software at all.

What it costs, and how the quote works

$2,500 to $5,000 depending on scope. You get a flat quote in writing before work starts, and there is no hourly meter. That is how every engagement here is priced: the number you approve is the number you pay. All five offers work the same way, on the pricing page.

The honest part

The plan is yours to keep whether or not we build together. Some of what it recommends will be off-the-shelf software rather than custom builds, because software selection is part of the work, and the cheapest fix that holds is the right one. If you take the plan to your own team or another vendor, it worked.

Questions worth asking first

What does it cost?

$2,500 to $5,000 depending on scope. Flat quote in writing before work starts. No hourly meter, so the number you approve is the number you pay.

What do I actually get?

A map of how your operation actually runs, an analysis of where AI pays for itself in your workflows, and a prioritized plan with the ROI math on each fix. It is a working document your team can execute, not a slide deck.

What happens after?

The plan is yours to keep whether or not we build together. If you want the fixes built, the usual next steps are an end-to-end workflow automation ($5,000 to $15,000) or a prototype build ($7,500 to $20,000), each with its own flat quote. You can also take the plan to your own team or another vendor.

Will you just recommend things you would be paid to build?

No. Some fixes are buy, not build, and the plan says so. Software selection and vendor management is part of what I do, so recommending an off-the-shelf tool instead of a custom build is a normal outcome.

Who is it for?

Small and mid-size teams. The businesses that get the most out of it have tried AI somewhere, but nobody has wired it into the workflows the business actually runs on.

How do I start?

Send a short note through the contact form: name, email, and a short summary of the problem. I read every message myself and usually reply within two business days with a few questions or a concrete next step, typically the assessment with a flat quote attached.
