“Before the assessment, I had no framework for understanding where we actually stood. The report gave me something specific to bring to my leadership team — not just a score, but a roadmap.”

What you receive

Your assessment delivers three things

Not just a score — a framework you can act on immediately.

AI Readiness Score

Your score across seven critical dimensions: Business, Strategy, Execution, People, Process, Technology, and Governance. A clear picture of where you stand — not vague advice.

Share this score with your leadership team. It's the baseline for strategic conversations and the starting point for measuring progress.

Silo & Bottleneck Map

Where your organization is siloed, where workflows are slowing down, and where AI adoption is blocked. This is your deployment roadmap — showing what to fix first.

Bring this to your operations team. It shows exactly what needs to be addressed before AI adoption can accelerate.

Three Prioritized Next Steps

Specific to your organization's situation, not generic recommendations. Designed to be executed over the next 90 days — and structured to unblock everything that follows.

Start with these. They're ranked by impact, not complexity. Execute them first and everything else gets easier.

One payment. No subscriptions.

Who This Is For

You're a decision-maker who can feel the shift happening — but can't quite see the gaps.

CTO / VP of Engineering

You're figuring out how AI changes your team, stack, and competitive position. You know the transformation is coming — not sure if you're ahead of it or behind it.

Operating Leader

You're responsible for organizational efficiency. Asking: where are our gaps? Where should we invest? What risks are we not seeing?

Founder / CEO

You're determining if your operating model will survive the next 24 months. You need clarity on AI readiness before the market forces the answer.

Board Member / Investor

You understand AI disruption is real but can't see what it means for specific organizations. You need a framework for evaluation — fast.

The Gap Between Confidence and Reality

87% of executives say their organization is very prepared for AI. Only 7% can actually confirm their data is ready.

Leaders report high confidence in infrastructure (87%), skills (86%), and data readiness (88%). Yet 85% admit their data is fragmented, and 63% cite data quality as a deployment barrier.

Internal teams overestimate readiness in areas they control and underestimate gaps in areas outside their expertise. You're blind to what you can't see — until it stops you.

Without a clear picture of where you stand, you're making investment decisions based on faulty confidence.

The Competitive Window Is Closing

Companies adopting AI are pulling ahead. Retail companies using generative AI report an average ROI of 3.7x per dollar invested — top performers achieve 10.3x returns.

Organizations that fail to adopt AI-native operating models by 2027 risk being structurally uncompetitive. The difference between AI-ready and AI-unprepared isn't measured in percentage points — it's measured in market position.

You have roughly 12 months to understand your gaps, design your approach, and begin execution. That window is narrowing every quarter.

3.7x ROI per dollar invested in AI — top performers: 10.3x

Where Does Your Organization Fall?

The Decidr US AI Readiness Index segments organizations into four profiles:

🟠 Trailblazers (26%): Already moving AI into operating infrastructure. Your immediate competitors. They have a 12+ month head start.

🟡 White Knucklers (21%): Strategy and urgency present, but hitting execution friction. Dangerous territory — pressure without progress.

⚪ Tinkerers (33%): The largest group. Experimenting in pockets but no formal operating model. You might be here without realizing it.

⬜️ Sleepwalkers (20%): Still exploring. The window to stay here is closing fast.

Where are you? Most organizations can't answer clearly — which is itself the problem.

Only 24–27% of organizations have adequate AI-skilled talent — yet 73% plan to deploy autonomous agents
