The AI Audit · Cask Advisors

Quietly better operations for small business.

One focused interview. One specific report. We help you implement the quick fixes ourselves. For businesses with 1–50 employees that want time back — without a consulting project.

See how it works
The promise

If your Executive Summary doesn't include at least ten specific recommendations — each with a quantified impact and a clear next step — you don't pay.

01 / PROCESS

Four steps. No theater.

STEP 01

Discovery Interview

30–45 minutes, scenario-based. We map every tool you use, the processes that run your business, and where time is being lost.

STEP 02

Executive Summary

A written report with specific, dollar-and-hour-quantified findings. Quick fixes, tool cost reductions, and larger opportunities clearly separated.

STEP 03

Review Call

A 30-minute walkthrough of the findings. We prioritize together and lock in the action plan for what gets fixed first.

STEP 04

Quick Fix Implementation

I help implement the quick wins directly — it's included. Larger work (process redesign, automations, knowledge systems) is scoped into a separate statement of work.

The Guarantee

Ten specific recommendations, or your money back.

Most small businesses are quietly losing hours to rekeyed data, redundant tools, and processes nobody owns. We've yet to meet one where there wasn't plenty to find. If we can't fill a summary with substance, you shouldn't pay.

The Terms

If your Executive Summary doesn't include at least ten specific recommendations — each with a quantified impact and a clear next step — we refund the full $999.

02 / WHAT'S POSSIBLE

The kind of things we find.

01 VOICE & SCHEDULING
Never miss a client call.

Even after hours. Even mid-job.

02 SALES
Quotes out before your competition replies.

In minutes, not days.

03 INBOX
An inbox that sorts itself.

The noise disappears. What matters surfaces.

04 REPORTING
Sunday-night reports, gone.

They assemble themselves.

05 TOOL SPEND
Stop paying for software you don't use.

Most owners are wasting $1,500+ a year.

06 KNOWLEDGE
Knowledge that doesn't walk out the door.

When your tenured employee leaves, the answers stay.

Six examples. Your audit will surface ten or more, specific to your business.

03 / WHAT CLIENTS SAY

On the record, in their words.

"
The summary surfaced three things we'd been meaning to fix for a year and never got to. Two were done inside a week.

"
I expected a sales pitch. I got a numbered list with dollar amounts next to each item. Different conversation entirely.
[Testimonial Placeholder] Founder — Trades Business
"
Worth it for the software audit alone. The quick fixes were a bonus, and we knew exactly what we wanted to hire them for next.
[Testimonial Placeholder] CFO — 30-Person Company

Honest, specific, and fast. That shouldn't be rare for this kind of work, but it is.

Testimonial placeholders — replace with real quotes as you collect them.

05 / FIT

Who this is — and isn't — for.

This is for you if

  • You run a business with 1 to 50 employees.
  • You suspect you're paying for software you don't use.
  • You have processes held together by spreadsheets and memory.
  • You've tried automations that never stuck.
  • You want a short, specific, written action plan.

This is not for you if

  • You want a 200-page strategy deck.
  • You're looking for a generic "AI strategy workshop."
  • You want someone to rebuild your tech stack in week one.
  • Your team is 50+ people with enterprise systems.
  • You aren't willing to implement anything after.
06 / QUESTIONS

The common ones.

How is this different from a "digital transformation" consultant?

We don't do decks or frameworks. The audit is one focused interview, a specific written report with dollar and hour impact, and hands-on implementation of the quick wins. You get an action plan, not a strategy.

What exactly counts as a "quick fix"?

Anything that can be implemented in under roughly four hours of work, with low technical risk, using tools you already own. Turning on an existing feature, setting up a simple automation, consolidating a duplicate tool, writing a reusable prompt for a recurring task, fixing an email template — things like that.

What happens if I need the bigger work done — the automations, the process redesign?

Those are flagged in the executive summary as requiring a separate engagement. After the review call, if you want to move forward on any of them, we'll scope the work specifically, provide a statement of work, and quote it separately. You are under no obligation.

Do you offer team training on AI tools?

Yes, as part of larger engagements. For clients who've completed an audit and want their team to actually adopt the tools we recommend, training is scoped into the follow-on Statement of Work. We don't offer standalone training for teams that haven't done an audit — the audit is what makes the training stick.

How does the money-back guarantee actually work?

If your Executive Summary doesn't include at least ten specific recommendations — each with a quantified impact (hours or dollars) and a clear next step — we refund your $999 in full. The recommendations are documented in the summary, so the bar is transparent and easy to check.

Who needs to be on the discovery interview?

Typically the owner, operations lead, or whoever has the clearest view across tools and processes. One person is enough. For larger teams, a second voice from finance or operations can be helpful but is not required.

Is my information confidential?

Yes. Everything discussed in the interview and captured in the summary is treated as confidential. A mutual NDA is available on request.

How long until I see the executive summary?

Typically within a few business days of the discovery interview. We'll confirm the exact timing when you book.

When you're ready

One conversation. A written plan. Time, given back.

A short intro call first — we'll confirm fit before you commit to the full engagement.
