AI Automation Readiness Assessment
A free, two-minute assessment that scores how ready your team is to hand real work to AI agents — and names the one workflow worth handing over first. Answer seven quick questions to see your tier on the Answers → Assist → Autopilot ladder, a read on your strengths and gaps, and a likely first install.
How does your team use AI today?
Where teams land on the readiness ladder
Every team is somewhere on the path from asking AI for answers to running agents on autopilot. The assessment places you in one of three tiers — and all three start the same way: a 30-minute audit.
AI-curious
You're early on the path — using AI for answers, not outcomes. That's the right place to start. The biggest wins come from picking one or two repetitive workflows and proving the value before going wider.
Ready to install
You have real, repetitive work and the systems to plug into. You're a strong candidate to install your first production agent — moving from asking AI for help to having it do the work.
Prime for autopilot
High-volume, documented work with a real cost attached — and the will to act. You're ready for Installed AI across multiple workflows, not just one. This is where a 24/7 agent workforce pays for itself fastest.
Six signals of readiness
These six questions score your readiness — the same things Bardo weighs in a real audit. Here’s what each one tells us, and what ready-vs-not looks like. (A seventh question — where it hurts most — routes your result to a likely first workflow.)
- 01
How does your team use AI today?
Where you are today sets the realistic next step. Most teams are still at answers or assist — the fastest win is moving one workflow to autopilot, not boiling the ocean.
- 02
How much of your team's time goes to repetitive work — support, lead follow-up, data entry, reporting, content?
Automation pays off where the same work repeats. High, daily volume is the clearest sign an agent will earn its keep; occasional tasks rarely justify a build.
- 03
Are the workflows you'd want to automate repeatable?
An agent can only run a workflow that's repeatable. Documented, consistent steps are ready to automate; work that lives in people's heads has to be mapped first.
- 04
What systems do those workflows run in?
Agents plug into the tools your work already runs in. Established systems like a CRM or helpdesk connect quickly; spreadsheet-and-email work is automatable too, just with a bit more setup.
- 05
What does that manual work cost you today?
The bigger the cost of doing it by hand — in money, missed revenue, or capped growth — the faster an install pays back.
- 06
How ready are you to act on this?
Readiness to act decides timing, not fit. The sooner you can move, the sooner the time and money start coming back.
