AI Readiness Audit

Identify Valuable AI Opportunities, Risks, and Next Steps

In 10 business days, fixed price, no software pitch at the end. Built and run personally by Amin Ali, the engineer behind Softosmith — five years building the AI agents, automation pipelines, and custom systems that other consultants only point at on a slide.

You Do Not Have an AI Problem

You have a “what do I actually do first” problem. Everyone on your team has opinions about AI right now — someone wants a chatbot, someone read about agents replacing a whole department, someone is quietly worried the business is falling behind and nobody can say exactly how. Meanwhile, here is what is actually happening most weeks:

Tools Bought Before Mapping

Software gets bought before anyone maps which process it's actually supposed to fix.

Endless Debate, No Decision

The same three people debate ChatGPT versus a custom AI agent for the third month running, with no decision made.

Hours Disappearing Every Week

Real hours vanish into manual work an automation could finish before lunch, while nobody wants to be the one who picked the wrong tool.

Picture a team spending even 8 hours a week on work that could realistically be handled by a well-built automation or AI agent — that is over 400 hours a year, every year, on autopilot work nobody enjoys and nobody is measuring. Industry researchers including Gartner have warned that a large share of AI projects get abandoned within their first year, and the most common reason is not the technology itself — it is starting without a clear picture of which process to target and whether the underlying data even supports it. That is precisely the failure mode this audit exists to prevent. The real question is not whether $2,500 and 10 days fits your budget. It is what another year of manual workarounds and unfinished AI debates is already costing you, and whether anyone in the business has written that number down yet.

Not A Slide Deck

What You Actually Walk Away With

Five concrete deliverables, built around your actual operations. The AI Readiness Audit replaces the guessing with a 10-day diagnostic and a plan you can hand to your team on day 11.

  • 5 concrete deliverables you own outright, not a slide deck
  • 3–5 highest-friction workflows mapped and priced in real dollars
  • A stack and competitor scan specific to your situation
  • A prioritized opportunity list scored on Impact, Effort, and Readiness
  • A 30/90/365-day Action Plan built for whoever signs the checks
  • Run personally by Amin Ali — 8+ years building the systems other consultants only point at on a slide

Workflow Map & Cost Model

Ten Business Days, Broken Down Day by Day

Not a deck full of logos and arrows. Every deliverable is something you can open, act on, and keep.

Days 1–2: The Operations Snapshot

A direct conversation with you and your key people to pin down your top time wasters, your most error-prone processes, and the quick wins already sitting in plain sight. You walk away with a one-page snapshot naming the time wasters, the error-prone steps, and the hours realistically recoverable.

Days 3–6: Workflow Maps & Cost Model

We map your three to five highest-friction workflows step by step, flag every stall point, and price every bottleneck in actual dollars. You get workflow maps with pain points marked, what the manual version costs you a year, and what that number looks like once an AI agent or automation handles it.

Days 7–8: Stack & Competitor Scan

What's already available off the shelf for your exact situation, what your competitors are already doing with AI, and where you could leapfrog them in a quarter. You get a two-page scan covering existing tools, rough pricing, and the gaps worth caring about.

Day 9: The Prioritized Opportunity List

Every opportunity we found, scored on Impact, Effort, and Readiness, ranked and sequenced with a rough budget and expected payback attached to each one. You get this as a working spreadsheet you own outright, not a locked PDF.

Day 10: The Action Plan

A document built for whoever signs the checks: a 30-day sprint, a 90-day roadmap, a 12-month direction, budget ranges, and how you'll know it worked. You get a 3-to-5-page plan your team can start executing on day 11.

Why This Audit Is Built Differently

An Engineer Runs It

Not a strategist reading a framework. This audit is run by the person who actually builds AI agents, RAG pipelines, and automations for a living — when the plan says something is buildable in three weeks, that estimate comes from someone who has built the equivalent.

Fixed Price, Not Hourly

$2,500. One number. No scope creep, no surprise invoice halfway through week two.

You Own the Output

The spreadsheet and the plan are yours outright. Take them to any developer, any agency, or back to Softosmith. No follow-on contract required to get value from the audit itself.

Founding Client Capacity

This audit is newly productized and capacity is capped on purpose — three businesses a month — so each one gets full attention instead of a templated report with your logo swapped in.

Ten Business Days From Discovery Call to Action Plan

1

Discovery Call

30 minutes, free. We talk about your business and whether this audit is actually the right move for you right now. If it isn't, you'll hear that directly, no pitch.

2

The Audit

10 business days, $2,500 fixed. Your side commits roughly 8 to 10 hours total across the two weeks, spread across 2 to 4 people. The heavy lifting is on us.

3

Execute

Day 11 onward, you run the plan. If you'd rather have Softosmith build what it recommends, that work is scoped and billed separately at $60/hour, typically $2,500–$15,000 depending on complexity. The audit stands on its own either way.

Fit Matters More Than the Sales Pitch

A good fit if:

Right-Sized Business

You run a business in the US, UK, UAE, or Australia with roughly 3 to 75 employees and a real decision pending about where AI fits.

Already Tried Something

You've tried a tool or two already and couldn't tell whether it actually moved the needle.

Wants Real Numbers

You want a sequenced plan with real budget numbers, not another vendor demo.

Can Commit A Few Hours

You can commit 2 to 4 people for a few hours of conversation across two weeks.

Discovery calls and working sessions are scheduled around EST, GMT, GST, and AEST business hours, so the audit fits your week, not ours.

Probably not a fit if:

Solo Operator

The audit overhead costs more than the manual work it would replace for a business of one.

Already Has A Plan

You already have a finished AI strategy and only need someone to build it — ask about a direct build engagement instead.

Looking For A Free Pitch

You want a free strategy session disguised as a sales call — this is a paid diagnostic with real deliverables.

No Time For Input

Nobody on your side can spare even a few hours of input over two weeks.

What You Can Expect Working With Us

No client logos or star ratings here — just the commitments this audit is held to.

Direct Line to the Engineer

You work directly with Amin Ali, the person actually running the audit — no account manager relaying messages back and forth.

Fixed Scope, Fixed Price

The $2,500 we quote upfront is what you pay. No surprise invoice halfway through week two.

You Own Everything

The spreadsheet and the Action Plan are yours outright, on day 11. Take them anywhere, including nowhere.

One Fixed Price, No Tiers

This is a single productized audit, not a menu of packages. Every client gets the same five deliverables.

Got questions? We've got straight answers!

$2,500, fixed. No hourly billing, no add on fees that show up later.

10 business days from kickoff to the final Action Plan in your inbox.

2 to 4 people works best. Ideally the owner or a senior decision maker, whoever runs day to day operations, and anyone closest to your existing tools or systems.

Roughly 8 to 10 hours total, spread across the two weeks. Most of the work happens on our end.

A one page Operations Snapshot, Workflow Maps with a cost model, a Stack and Competitor Scan, a Prioritized Opportunity List as an editable spreadsheet, and a 3 to 5 page Action Plan covering 30, 90, and 365 days.

Often that is exactly when it matters most. Most businesses that "tried AI" pointed it at the wrong process. The audit's job is finding the right one, and showing whether your current tools are even the right fit for it.

Yes, billed separately at $60 per hour and scoped to the specific recommendation. You are never required to use Softosmith for the build. Take the plan anywhere you like.
