The Tier 1 Diagnostic — a 14-day forensic audit of where your business is leaking time, margin, and clients.
Most AI projects fail for the same reason most hires fail. Someone buys the solution before they've properly diagnosed the problem. You end up with a tool that sort of works, a workflow no one follows, and a nagging feeling that the money would have been better spent elsewhere.
Assess is the opposite of that. Before we propose a single automation, write a single prompt, or touch a single system — we map your business. We interview the person who's actually drowning (not just you). We find the bottlenecks, the silent revenue leaks, and the tasks nobody should be doing by hand in 2026. Then we give you a roadmap that tells you exactly what to fix, in what order, and what the financial return looks like when you do.
You leave the Diagnostic with a decision. Build with us. Build with someone else. Or don't build at all — because sometimes the answer is that your business doesn't need AI, it needs something else, and we'll tell you that too.
We sit down with the person in your business who's stretched thinnest — usually not you. We find out what they'd pay to never do again. That's where the real leverage lives, and it's almost never what the founder thinks it is.
We map where your team's hours actually go versus where they should go. Most owner-directors discover they've been funding 15–25 hours a week of work that shouldn't exist. That's the equivalent of a part-time salary you're already paying — just to the wrong place.
A sequenced 90-day implementation plan, ranked by impact and effort. No 40-page deck. No jargon. Just the five things that move the needle and the order we'd do them in.
A separate one-page brief written for your partner, your co-director, or whoever else needs to understand why this spend makes sense without wading through the detail. The people who didn't sit through the interviews deserve clarity too.
At the end of the Diagnostic, you own the roadmap outright. No lock-in. No pressure. If we're the right fit to build it, we quote. If we're not, you walk away with a document that any competent implementer can execute.

We quote what it costs before we start, not after. Because the only thing worse than an unexpected bill is an unexpected bill from a consultant.
