Most teams do not need an AI strategy deck. They need to know which recurring workflows are expensive, automatable, safe enough to touch, and worth maintaining.

A useful audit finds:

  • repeated manual inputs and decisions;
  • documents or messages that are re-keyed into other systems;
  • queues where humans only classify, route, or summarize;
  • quality checks that can be pre-screened;
  • places where automation would be dangerous without human approval.

The output should be an opportunity map, not a hallucinated transformation program.
