Get a Custom Roadmap to Automate Your Biggest Time Drains —

Three steps. Total time on your end: about an hour. What you get back: a clear path to reclaim 5–10 hours every week.
10 minutes
Pre-Call Questionnaire
Before your interview, you'll complete a quick assessment covering your current tech stack, AI literacy level, and biggest time sinks. This lets us hit the ground running — no warm-up questions, no wasted time.

Custom Roadmap in 48 Hours
Your personalized report is built around your answers — not a generic template. It tells you exactly what to fix, in what order, and what not to touch yet.
What Your Report Includes
A written deliverable you can act on the same day — not a slide deck, not a discovery call that leads to another proposal.
Top Pain Points Identified
The specific bottlenecks eating your time, ranked by hours lost per week.
Impact vs. Effort Matrix
Every opportunity ranked as a Quick Win, Major Project, Fill-in, or Thankless Task — so you know exactly where to start.
Prioritized Tool Recommendations
The specific AI tools that solve your problems, matched to your existing stack, with expected time savings per week.
7-Day Implementation Plan
Step-by-step instructions for your highest-impact quick wins — written for operators, not engineers.
Expected ROI Summary
Clear projections of hours saved per week and the dollar value of reclaimed capacity at your team's hourly cost.
"Do Not Automate Yet" List
What to skip and why — an honest assessment of what isn't worth touching until you've landed the quick wins.
Five Signs You Need This Audit
Your team is spending more than 5 hours a week on copy-paste data entry
You've bought AI tools that nobody actually uses
You're not sure which process to automate first
You want a second opinion before committing to a larger AI engagement
You need a clear ROI case to bring to your leadership team
Who This Is For
SMB owners and operators across Metro Detroit and Oakland County with 10–200 employees who want clarity before they commit. Legal and accounting firms in Troy and Birmingham, manufacturing-adjacent suppliers in Auburn Hills and Novi, professional services practices in Bloomfield Hills — any operator who is serious about AI but not willing to guess at where to start.
If you are already past the assessment phase and want ongoing AI leadership, the Fractional CAIO program picks up where the audit ends. Most clients start here.
Common Questions
How does the process work, start to finish?
Three steps: (1) Complete the free online questionnaire — about 10 minutes covering your tech stack, team, and biggest time sinks. (2) Join a 45-minute live Zoom interview where we dig into your actual workflows. (3) Receive your written report and custom roadmap within 48 hours of the interview.
Is $297 all-inclusive?
Yes. The $297 covers the questionnaire, the 45-minute interview, the full written report, and the Expected ROI Summary. There are no upsells baked in. If the findings point to a larger engagement, that conversation happens transparently after you have the report in hand.
Do I need technical knowledge?
No. The report is written for operators, not engineers — plain English, specific tool names, and concrete next steps.
What if I only want the audit and nothing else?
That's a completely valid outcome. The report is designed to stand alone. You can hand it to an internal team, a freelancer, or a different agency and act on it without us.
How is this different from a free discovery call?
A discovery call produces conversation. The audit produces a written deliverable — specific recommendations, ranked by impact and effort, with a 7-day implementation plan. You leave with something you can act on the same day.
What's the Impact vs. Effort Matrix?
Every automation opportunity we identify gets classified into one of four quadrants: Quick Wins (high impact, low effort — these go in your 7-Day Plan), Major Projects (high impact, higher effort — worth planning), Fill-ins (lower impact, low effort — good for slow weeks), and Thankless Tasks (low impact, high effort — skip these entirely).
