Short, actionable guides on how we run AI transformation in the field.

The guide shows how to base an automation decision on a measured process rather than a tool search: how to build your process inventory in a single session, the four criteria that make a process automation-ready (repetition, stability, rule clarity, verifiability), and how to score them out of 12. From there it covers the impact/effort matrix that picks which ready process to start with, the six traps people fall into when choosing a first pilot, a day-by-day two-week pilot plan, and the checklist to clear before going live.
