In short

What is an AI readiness assessment?

An AI readiness assessment checks whether a company is ready to use AI on the use cases it cares about: is the data available and usable, can the systems connect, do people have the skills, are security and governance in place. Solorai runs it in about 2 weeks and ends with a prioritised plan and its costs.

What does an AI readiness assessment include?

Six outputs you can use the day the assessment ends.

  • Interviews

    Leaders, process owners, IT and security, on goals, pain points and constraints.

  • Use case shortlist

    The use cases worth pursuing, scored on value, feasibility and risk.

  • Data check

    Where the data for each use case lives, its quality and who may use it.

  • Systems and integration

    How AI would connect to your systems, and what is missing.

  • Security and governance

    Access, data protection, AI policy and EU AI Act exposure, reviewed.

  • Plan and costs

    Priorities, next steps, effort and costs, ready for a decision.

Five areas

What do we assess?

Each area is scored against the use cases you care about, not against a generic maturity model.

  • Data
    • Where the data lives
    • Quality and access rights
    • Personal data involved
  • Systems
    • APIs and connectors available
    • Identity and single sign-on
    • Integration effort
  • Skills
    • How AI is used today
    • Training needs by role
    • An owner for each use case
  • Security
    • Access and permissions
    • Vendor and data protection review
    • Logging and monitoring
  • Governance
    • AI policy and approvals
    • AI system register
    • EU AI Act classification

The result is a plan you can act on: the gaps to close first, the use cases that can start now and what each step costs.
