AI Automation Audit

Find out where AI actually saves you time, and where it doesn’t

Most owners suspect AI could take something off their plate but have no idea where to start or whether it’s worth the money. This audit answers both, in plain language.

The AI conversation is full of hype, and it’s hard to tell the genuinely useful from the noise when you’re busy running a business. Buying the wrong tool wastes money; ignoring the right one wastes hours every week.

It starts with a conversation. You talk me through how the business runs, quoting, intake, scheduling, bookkeeping, wherever the hours go, and I ask a lot of questions. Then I do the homework and hand you a short, ranked report: what’s worth automating, what it would cost, and what to leave alone. The plan is yours to keep whether you build it with me or with anyone else.

Track record

Fifteen years of production systems for Maritime businesses: health platforms, hosting infrastructure, integrations, and the odd 2 a.m. emergency fix. The public example is ERstat.ca, a live national data site built and run solo.

AI Automation Audit

What the audit covers

  • One honest conversation about your workflow: where time leaks, where mistakes happen, where you’re copying data by hand. Nothing to install, nobody shadowing your staff.
  • A ranked, costed plan of what’s worth automating, with real numbers attached.
  • Honesty about what to skip. If AI won’t help your business, the report says so.
  • Yours to keep. Build it with me, with someone else, or in-house, the plan is yours either way.

Flat fee, quoted up front. Everything starts with a free call and a flat written number, before any work begins.

FAQ

Questions about ai automation audit

Is AI useful for a small business, or is it hype?

Some of it is hype, and some of it is already saving small businesses real hours: drafting quotes, answering repeat questions, reading invoices into the books. Whether it would help your business is exactly what the audit answers, and if the answer is no, the report will say so.

What does the audit involve on my end?

One conversation, by phone or Google Meet. You walk me through how the business runs, and I take it from there.

What do I get at the end?

A short written report you can act on: the tasks worth automating, ranked, with rough costs and what to skip. No jargon, no upsell you didn’t ask for.

Do I have to build it with you?

No. The plan is yours to keep. Plenty of owners take the report and implement the easy wins themselves.
