How the score works.
Every answer is worth between 0 and 2 points. Your score is the total, out of 14. Nothing is weighted and nothing is hidden.
| Question | 0 points | 1 point | 2 points |
|---|---|---|---|
| How often does this workflow run? | Less than once a month | A few times a month | Every week or more |
| How many hours a week does it take, across everyone who touches it? | Under 2 hours | 2 to 5 hours | More than 5 hours |
| Are the steps the same each time? | Different every time | Mostly, with some judgment calls | The same steps every time |
| Where does the information it needs come from? | On paper or in people's heads | Scattered across email and shared files | One or two systems, or the same format every time |
| Are the steps written down? | No | Partly, or out of date | Yes, and they're current |
| What happens if a step goes wrong? | Money moves, or there's legal risk | A customer sees it, but it's easy to fix | Only the team sees it, and it's caught fast |
| Does one person own it and check the output? | No one owns it | It's shared, with nobody clearly in charge | Yes, one named person |
| Score | What it means |
|---|---|
| 0 to 4: Not ready yet | Fix the basics before you spend anything on AI for this workflow. Start with your biggest gap below. |
| 5 to 8: Close | A couple of fixes would make this a real candidate. Work on the lowest-scoring answers first. |
| 9 to 11: Good candidate | Worth trying AI here, with a person checking the output until it's proven. |
| 12 to 14: Strong first candidate | This is the kind of workflow to start with. Time it now so you can prove the win later. |
These cut-offs are a rule of thumb I set for this tool, based on what makes a workflow worth starting with: it runs often, takes real hours, follows the same steps, has its inputs in one place and has an owner who checks the output. They aren't an industry benchmark, and the score doesn't predict savings. The optional cost line is your hours a week times your hourly cost times 48 working weeks, the same math as the DIY checklist.
What the score can't tell you
It can't see your real workflow. It doesn't know which steps eat the hours or whether a fix would stick with your team. A high score says this workflow is worth a closer look. It doesn't say how much you'd save.

What is an AI workflow audit scorecard?
It's a quick self-check for one workflow. You answer 7 questions about how the work runs today, each answer is worth between 0 and 2 points, and the total is your score out of 14.
How is the score calculated?
It's the sum of your answers. 0 to 4 reads as not ready yet, 5 to 8 as close, 9 to 11 as a good candidate and 12 to 14 as a strong first candidate. Those cut-offs are a rule of thumb I set for this tool. They aren't an industry benchmark.
Does the scorecard estimate how much AI will save?
No. If you add your hours and hourly cost, it shows what the workflow costs a year today, using 48 working weeks. That's the ceiling, not a forecast. The $2,500 AI workflow audit measures the real savings step by step.
Is it free, and do I need to give my email?
It's free, and your result shows without an email. Your answers stay in your browser. If you like, you can save your score with your email so it's ready if you book a free call.
How is this different from the $2,500 audit?
The scorecard is your own read on one workflow in about two minutes. The audit prices every step of that workflow in hours and dollars and fixes the biggest win, with the report in 5 business days.
What should I do with a low score?
Fix the biggest gap the scorecard names, then score the workflow again. If it's still low, pick a different workflow. A low score means this one isn't where to start.
Which workflow should I score?
Pick one your team runs every week and that takes the most hours. Score one workflow at a time.
