AI Readiness Assessment

We assess your business across 6 key pillars: strategy, process, knowledge, resources, culture, and data, to see where you stand and where you need to go.

Data

We help you turn scattered information into organized intelligence—and make sure your future systems are trained on high-quality signals, not noise.

Process Mapping

We map your workflows, spot inefficiencies, and lay the foundation for scalable, AI-ready systems, designed to grow as you do.

Opportunity Prioritization

You’ll get a ranked list of automation opportunities by ROI, complexity, and impact, so you know exactly where to focus first.

Full AI Transformation

Now that your foundation is in place, it’s time to scale. We help you explore new services, monetize your data, and uncover ways to disrupt, not just survive, your market.

The Turning Point, In Their Words

We’re leading and creating a world without waste. It’s a monumental task that requires exponential thinking from exponential thinkers and Mike is just that. Mike and the team aren’t just using tools, they’re creating a new business paradigm, or new business thinking. Mike operates from what ‘could be’, and not ‘what was’.
David Katz, Chairman Plastic Bank
Mike & Andrej definitely woke our company up to the risks and opportunities around AI, and helped to get some very important conversations started. We’re excited about the automation opportunities around customer support and training, and the vision of abundance for all. This workshop is highly recommended for anyone that needs to kick start their AI vision!
Murray Seward, CEO Outback Team Building
Mike Schwarz sounds a stark warning for all SME business owners. Get on the AI wave, NOW, or get buried in its wake. As a business owner himself, and a long time expert in the Marketing industry, Mike is able to simplify the impact and opportunity presented by AI in a manner that resonates with his audience. He’s an entertaining, educational and engaging speaker whose real-world experience with AI is invaluable.
Claudio Rodrigues, CEO RMG Advertising
I recently saw Mike speak at the 2024 EO One Canada Conference in Calgary, and wow – I think it was the best talk from the whole conference! He definitely got everyone thinking about AI more seriously than before. I highly recommend anyone in business to attend one of his talks, and embrace the future.
