01 · The front door
Before anything gets built, we establish what is worth building.
Most AI projects fail because someone automated the wrong thing beautifully. The audit is how we make sure that isn't you.
What we do
Map the function as it actually runs
We interview the people doing the work, not just the people who own the process document. The gap between the two is usually where the money is.
Find where AI and automation genuinely pay
Every candidate process scored on value and effort. Some of what you hoped to automate shouldn't be. We'll say so.
Check the foundation
You cannot automate a broken funnel or measure what was never wired up. If the digital plumbing needs work first, that goes in the roadmap.
Cost it
Each recommendation carries a price, a duration and an expected return. No 'contact us for pricing' in your own roadmap.
What you get
- A ranked roadmap of automation opportunities
- A value/effort score for each
- A costed delivery plan with durations
- A written assessment of your data and martech foundation
- A 90-minute readout with your team
- The whole thing yours to keep and take elsewhere if you want
The terms
- Duration
- 2–3 weeks
- Investment
- from £8,000
- Delivered by
- Abed Hakim, personally
We don't scope for free. A paid audit means the recommendation is evidence, not a sales pitch — and it means we'll tell you when the answer is 'don't automate this'.

Questions
The ones we're always asked.
Then that's the finding, and you've saved considerably more than the audit cost. It happens.
Yes. It's yours. We'd rather be chosen on the build than locked in on the paperwork.
Read-only access to the relevant tools helps, but we can work from interviews and documentation if procurement is slow.
Roughly four to six hours of your people's time in total, spread across the two to three weeks.
Book an audit.
A 30-minute call first, then two to three weeks, then a costed roadmap that is yours to keep.
