## What is an AI assessment?

An AI assessment is a structured review of how a business works week to week: where work piles up, what the owner dreads, what is repetitive, and what automation has failed before. The output is a short list of off-the-shelf AI (or practical SaaS) tools matched to those pains, with setup complexity, cost band, and expected time saved.

- Free mini assessment: 15 minutes, one concrete tool recommendation, same-day usable.
- Full assessment (discussed on call, no public price): deeper discovery, written report, review call.
- Optional later: hands-on enablement / concierge-style help implementing tools.

Guarantee on the free call: leave with at least one tool you can use the same day.

## Who it is for

- Owner-operators in Toronto and the GTA
- Roughly 5–25 employees (sweet spot)
- Most industries; avoid heavily regulated healthcare / some fintech for the default offer
