Free self-assessment
How ready is your organization for AI, honestly?
Most AI readiness conversations stall on vocabulary. One person means pilots, another means policy, a third means whether the data is clean enough to trust. This instrument replaces that with 24 concrete criteria grouped into 5 weighted dimensions, each with written descriptions of what levels one through five actually look like in practice. You pick the description that fits, and the tool does the arithmetic.
It is free, there is nothing to submit, and your answers never leave this browser.
Roughly 10 to 15 minutes
Longer if you stop to check an answer with a colleague, which is usually worth it.
Nothing is submitted
There is no form, no account, and no email gate. Answers are saved in your browser so you can close the tab and pick it back up.
24 criteria, 5 dimensions
Each criterion offers five written anchors, so you are choosing a description of your organization rather than a number.
How the scoring works
Every criterion uses the same 1 to 5 scale, running from None at level 1 to Best in class at level 5. Each criterion spells out what all five levels look like, and you choose the description that fits. Each dimension is the plain average of the criteria you answer in it, and the composite is the weighted average of those dimension scores. The weights are uneven:
- 10%Strategy and GovernanceWhether AI activity is directed by a stated intent with named owners and real money behind it, rather than accumulating from individual requests. It sets the ceiling on everything else, though on its own it changes nothing.
- 10%PrioritizationWhether the organization picks the right work and stops the wrong work, using stated criteria rather than enthusiasm. Good prioritization shows up later as execution that did not have to be redone.
- 40%Execution and ImpactWhat has actually been built, adopted, measured, and improved. This is the heaviest dimension because it is the only direct evidence that the rest of the model is working.
- 25%People, Culture and ChangeWhether the workforce can use AI, is supported through the change, and is willing to try. Adoption is usually the constraint that decides whether capability becomes impact.
- 15%Risk, Security and ComplianceThe controls that let AI scale without creating exposure the organization cannot absorb. It rarely creates value directly, but weakness here tends to cap how far anything else can safely go.
You can open the results view before you finish. When criteria are missing, the weights are renormalized across the dimensions you have answered, so a partial score is directionally useful but will shift as you complete the rest.
