How the scan works
1 — Pick one workflow
Lead intake, scheduling, follow-up, reporting, back-office admin — wherever your senior people burn the most hours. One workflow, clearly bounded.
2 — We scan it
A working session with the people who run the workflow today, a look at the systems it touches, and the honest math on what an agent would save.
3 — You get the plan
A short written plan: where an agent pays back fastest, what to build first, what it costs, and what to skip. Yours to execute with anyone — including us.
What you get
- Fixed scope, fixed price: $1,500–$5,000 depending on workflow complexity
- Founder-delivered — the partner you talk to does the work
- Written opportunity plan with payback math, not a slide deck
- A concrete first-build recommendation with a definition of done
- The full fee is credited toward an AI Readiness Audit or Workflow Sprint
- No retainer, no lock-in, no junior consultants
