Where it pays for itself, and what to do first.
An MIT study found 95% of AI pilots fail — almost always for lack of a plan, not lack of technology. The Roadmap is the plan.
It's one working session with Matt, plus a detailed written assessment — and the smartest first move for any owner serious about AI.
What you walk away with
A readiness score.
Six parts of your business — your data and systems, how much still runs on manual steps, what AI you use today, your team's capability, your customer experience, and your governance — each scored with plain-English notes. Most owners start low. That's headroom, not failure.
A prioritized opportunity map.
Every meaningful AI opportunity in your operation, each sorted by who should build it (see below).
The numbers.
What each opportunity saves you in hours and dollars, with conservative, stated assumptions.
A phased plan and a readout call.
A clear order of operations, walked through with you on a call.
Sorted by who should build it
Every opportunity in your roadmap is categorized so you know exactly how to get it done.
Do it yourself.
Things you can stand up with off-the-shelf tools and the steps in your report — often using software you already pay for. We name the tool and how to set it up.
Some help.
Worth a configured build or integration — a good fit for a focused Crenel engagement or a capable vendor.
Specialist work.
Bigger, multi-system builds that shouldn't be handed to a freelancer, where an experienced partner protects you from an expensive mistake.
