AI Audit

You want to deploy artificial intelligence in your business but don't know where to start. An AI audit of your processes identifies real value opportunities, quantifies the potential gains and delivers a prioritized roadmap in 6 weeks — for industry and services alike.

What is an AI audit?

An AI audit is a structured diagnosis of your business processes to identify where artificial intelligence delivers measurable value — and where it does nothing. An artificial intelligence audit covers four dimensions: your processes, your data, your AI maturity and your potential use cases.

Unlike a simple assessment, an AI process audit costs every opportunity: estimated time savings, error reduction, projected ROI. That is what turns the investment decision from intuition into a documented choice. For an AI audit company engagement, we work directly with your operational teams — not from a marketing slide.

The result is a complete AI diagnosis: a factual assessment of your maturity, a prioritization of use cases and an executable roadmap. It is the first step of any successful AI transformation, whatever your sector.

The Taranis method: an AI process audit in 3 steps

Map, Quantify, Prioritize: an AI diagnosis that turns complexity into an action plan.

‎🔍

Map

We analyze your business processes, data flows, and operational pain points to identify where AI delivers measurable value — not where it looks good on a PowerPoint slide.

‎📊

Quantify

Every opportunity is costed: estimated time savings, error reduction, projected ROI. You know exactly what you stand to gain before investing a single euro.

‎🗺️

Prioritize

We deliver an executable roadmap: which projects first, what budget, what timeline. Not a report that gathers dust — an action plan.

What You Leave With

A factual diagnosis

No jargon, no vague promises. A clear assessment of your processes, your data, and your AI maturity level.

Identified use cases

The 5 to 10 processes where AI delivers the best value/effort ratio in your specific context.

Realistic costing

Time, budget, team. Projections based on comparable deployments, not marketing slides.

A costed roadmap

Where to start, in what order, at what pace, with what projected ROI. A realistic timeline over 6 to 18 months.

How Does an AI Audit Work?

A structured 4-phase method designed to minimize impact on your production while maximizing diagnostic accuracy.

AI audit process in 4 steps: map, quantify, prioritize, roadmap — delivered in 6 weeks
1

Process mapping

Our experts analyze your value chain, identify bottlenecks and repetitive tasks with high automation potential. This phase includes interviews with operational teams and an analysis of production data over at least 12 months.

2

AI opportunity assessment

Each process is evaluated for automation potential, estimated ROI and technical feasibility. We identify the 5 to 10 use cases where AI delivers the best value/effort ratio in your specific context.

3

Prioritization and costing

Use cases are prioritized and costed: time savings, error reduction, required budget, required team. You get a clear view of which projects to launch first, which to deploy next and which to drop.

4

Strategic roadmap

You leave with a prioritized action plan, an estimated budget per workstream, and a realistic deployment timeline over 6 to 18 months. Not a report that gathers dust — an execution plan.

Who Is It For?

Industrial companies that hear about AI every day but aren't sure if it applies to their business. You have well-oiled processes, teams that deliver, and you don't want to bet your productivity on a poorly understood technology.

Industrial leadership under pressure to “do AI” but without a clear vision of priorities. You need a structured framework to make decisions, not a list of buzzwords.

Companies that tried an AI POC that never made it past the prototype stage. We identify why it didn't work and what needs to be fixed so the next one lands in production.

Frequently Asked Questions About AI Audits

How much does an AI audit cost?+
The price of an AI audit depends on the scope: number of processes analyzed, company size, industry and data maturity. We provide a precise quote after scoping your needs. The audit is a framed investment with costed deliverables (prioritized use cases, projected ROI, roadmap) — you know what you pay and what you get before launching any deployment.
How long does an AI audit take?+
A Taranis AI audit runs over 6 weeks, split into 4 phases: process mapping (weeks 1-2), opportunity quantification (weeks 3-4), use case prioritization (week 5) and a costed roadmap (week 6). You leave with an executable action plan, not a report that gathers dust.
Where do I start with an AI audit?+
Start with an AI audit: it is the first step of any transformation. We map your business processes, data flows and operational pain points, then quantify the potential gains before prioritizing use cases. This avoids POCs that go nowhere and investments based on intuition rather than numbers.
What deliverables do I get after an AI audit?+
You leave with four deliverables: a factual diagnosis of your processes and AI maturity, a selection of the 5 to 10 use cases with the best value/effort ratio, realistic costing (time, budget, team) and a prioritized 6 to 18 month roadmap with projected ROI.
Which companies benefit from an AI audit?+
An AI audit is for SMEs, mid-caps and large industrial groups that want to deploy AI without betting their productivity: leadership under pressure to "do AI", companies that tried a POC that never reached production, or organizations that want to structure their roadmap with costed priorities.
What is the difference between AI audit and industrial AI audit?+
An AI audit is the generic diagnosis of your processes and artificial intelligence opportunities. An industrial AI audit applies the same method to the industry context: value chain, workshop floor, production data, maintenance, quality. At Taranis AI the method is identical — the industrial sector remains our core business.
