Find out where and how to use AI in your business

A few short questions, one at a time. At the end you get a free report that names the tasks AI can take off your plate, which one to start with, and which ones to leave to people.

What kind of business is it?

Service means people pay for your time or skill. Product means they pay for a thing.

About 3 minutes. At the end we'll ask for your name and email so we can send you the report.

Your answers are used to write your report and nothing else. We never sell them, and you can ask us to delete them.

What happens after you start

1 of 4

Answer one question at a time

Six questions are the same for everyone: what you do, how big the team is, where the week goes. Most are a tap on a card. It takes about three minutes.

2 of 4

Get follow-ups written for your business

From your answers, an AI model writes two or three more questions about how the work actually happens today. A clinic and a furniture shop get different ones.

Give us your name and email

We ask at the end, and we say so at the start. The report shows on this page and a copy goes to your inbox so you can share it with your team.

Read your AI opportunity map

Three to five places AI fits, each one a task with a first step, what to keep with a person, and a plan for the first 30 days. If you want it built, we can help.

How we decide where AI fits

Four questions, in the order a business owner can answer them. None of it is new. Each one is a well-known way of looking at a business, and together they turn your answers into a short list of tasks.

Step 1 of 4

Where does the work happen?

Every business is a chain of five jobs: finding customers, selling, doing the work, support and follow-up, and the back office. This idea comes from Michael Porter's value chain, a standard way of looking at a business since 1985. We ask which of the five eats your week, because that is where the first project should go.

Step 2 of 4

What is the work, task by task?

AI does not replace a job. It takes over a task. "Answering enquiries" is a job. "Typing the same price reply on WhatsApp forty times a day" is a task, and that is the level the follow-up questions dig to. Andrew Ng teaches this as task-based analysis, and it is the step most AI advice skips.

Step 3 of 4

Can AI actually do this task?

Not every task fits. We check six things, taken from a well-known research paper by Brynjolfsson and Mitchell on what machine learning is good at: the task repeats, it follows a pattern, the input is already digital, a small mistake is tolerable, it needs no physical hand or personal relationship, and you can tell quickly if the output was right. A task that fails two of these stays with a person, and the report says so.

Step 4 of 4

How should AI be used here, and what first?

There are three ways to use it. Automate: AI does the task and a person checks. Augment: a person does the task and AI makes it faster. Create: AI makes a service possible that was not before. Each opportunity gets one of the three, then a priority: quick win, big bet, later, or skip. You start with the quick wins.

Why the report names tasks

Most advice about AI for business starts with a tool and looks for a place to put it. A tool is only useful if it takes a task off someone who is busy, and you cannot know which tool until you know which task.

So the finder works the other way round. It asks where your week goes, breaks that part of the business into the tasks inside it, checks each task against what AI is actually good at today, and only then says how AI would do it. The report names tasks: drafting the reply to an enquiry, reading a form into a sheet, writing the first version of a quote. Each one has a first step you can take this week without buying anything.

It also says what not to touch. A task that needs judgement, a face, or a steady hand stays with a person, and the report says so. I build this kind of thing for a living, and the projects that worked all started this way.

What the report looks like

A worked example, for a business like this one:

A dental clinic with a team of six, most patients from walk-ins and referrals.

Headline

The receptionist spends about a day a week typing the same WhatsApp replies.

Quick winFinding customersAutomate

Draft every WhatsApp enquiry reply for the receptionist to approve

The same ten questions arrive forty times a day. An assistant drafts each reply from the price list and the calendar; the receptionist taps send or edits first.

5 to 8 hours a week, low effort

Big betBack officeAugment

Fill consent forms and patient records from a photo

Forms are filled on paper and typed up at the end of the day. A photo becomes a filled row in the sheet, checked by a person before it is saved.

2 to 4 hours a week, medium effort

Keep this human

Telling a patient what treatment they need. It needs judgement and a face.

Who it is for

An owner or a manager who runs a business with real customers and wants to know, in plain words, where AI would help. A clinic, a shop, an agency, a small factory, a firm of accountants, a school, a service business with a team of two or twenty. If most of your week is spent on work that repeats, there is almost certainly something in here for you.

It is not for an idea that has no customers yet, and it is not a course. If you want to learn to build these things yourself, that is a different page.

Before you start

A short report we call your AI opportunity map. It lists three to five places in your business where AI fits, each one named as a task, with how AI would do it, how many hours a week it could save, how much effort it takes, and what to do first. It also names one or two tasks to keep with a person, and gives you a plan for the first 30 days. You see it on this page and we email you a copy.

Yes. The questions, the report and the call cost nothing. If you later want us to build something for you, that is a separate paid project, and you are free to take the report and do it yourself or with someone else.

To send you the report. We ask for it at the end, after the questions, and we say so on the first screen. We do not send anything else unless you ask, and you can ask us to delete your answers at any time.

The first six are the same for everyone and come from the method above. The ones after that are written for your business by an AI model, from what you have already answered, so a clinic and a furniture shop get different follow-ups. Your answers are processed by a third-party AI provider to do this. Your name and email are never sent to it.

About three minutes. Most questions are a tap on a card. Two or three ask you to type a line.

No. Every question is about your business, in plain words. The report explains each idea in plain words too, and we define the few terms we use.

Yes, mostly. A clinic, a shop, an agency, a small factory, a firm of two or twenty. The method works for bigger companies too, but the report is written for an owner who will decide on Monday what to try.

Nothing, unless you want it to. The last screen offers a free call where we go through the map with you and say what we would build and what it would take. If it is not a fit, we say so on the call.

Three minutes, one question at a time

Start with the first question. Your report is on this page at the end, and a copy is in your inbox.
