AI isn't the right fit for every business, and Standby will tell you plainly if it isn't yours. Here's an honest checklist to help you self-assess before you ever talk to us.
This isn't a sales pitch dressed up as a quiz — it's the same kind of question set we walk through at an AI Readiness Audit. If most of these sound familiar, an AI support team is probably worth a real look. If only one or two do, it might genuinely be too early, and that's a fine answer too.
The goal isn't to talk every business into a build — it's to help you spend your time and money where it'll actually pay off.
However many of these sound familiar, here's the honest next step.
You're a strong candidate for an AI Readiness Audit — a plain-language look at exactly where it would help most.
