AI diagnostic: start with a single workflow
A Kolibro AI diagnostic is a short, tightly scoped engagement centred on one workflow that costs you time or margin. Within a few weeks, we map it with your teams, quantify the possible gains and hand you a prioritised, costed plan. It is the lowest-risk starting point: you leave with something useful, whether or not you decide to go further.
Why a diagnostic rather than a "big AI project"
Most AI initiatives fail not for lack of technology, but for lack of prioritisation and adoption. Starting small reverses the risk: a clear scope, a known cost, fast proof. We are not looking for the most spectacular use case, but for the one whose gain is real and measurable, and we prove it before investing further.
What the diagnostic covers
- Workflow mapping: who decides, when, with what information; where the delays and the rework are.
- Baseline measurement: today's real time and costs, the point of comparison to measure ROI afterwards.
- Identifying the pockets of value, by bringing together leadership's economic picture and the reality on the ground.
- A prioritised, costed plan: what we transform, in what order, for what estimated gain, with which indicators.
What you get
An actionable deliverable: the redesigned target workflow, an estimated gain (time, cost, margin or capacity), a success indicator, and a clear recommendation: build, automate, or do nothing if the ROI does not justify it. The capture discipline (a quantified baseline, a business owner, an indicator) is set from this stage.
What next?
If the plan convinces you, the same team builds the solution and puts it into production, usually within 8 to 12 weeks for a first workflow, then transfers the capability to your teams following our six-step method. If you prefer to run it in-house, the plan is yours: it stays useful without us.
Frequently asked questions
- How long does an AI diagnostic take?
- A few weeks depending on the complexity of the workflow, from scoping to delivery of the costed plan.
- Does the diagnostic commit us to anything?
- No. You leave with a plan you can act on, whether you continue with us or not.
- Which workflow should we start with?
- The one that visibly costs you time or margin: document processing, quote production, customer relations, reporting, compliance.
- How do you measure ROI?
- Against a quantified baseline set during the diagnostic, compared with the target once the solution is in production.
