- Who is the Health Check for?
- Any 10–50 person company, any industry, any geography. The diagnostic is software, so it works the same for an architecture firm in Boston as a manufacturer in Phoenix. If you have enough operational complexity that work is moving through more than one team, you have enough to look at.
- Is the Health Check really free?
- Yes. About 10 minutes, no credit card, no sales call. You finish with a personalized scorecard, six area scores, and one specific action you can take this week. The Full Scorecard is offered as an upgrade only after you've finished the free check.
- What's the difference between the Full Scorecard and Living Picture?
- The Full Scorecard is a photo — one detailed, multi-perspective snapshot of how your operation looks today. Living Picture is a pulse — the same picture kept current as your company changes, with a readiness score that moves as gaps close instead of a grade that ages the day you get it. Most companies start with a Scorecard and move to Living Picture once they want the picture to stay accurate on its own.
- How much does an AI Build Engagement cost?
- Most engagements run $25,000 to $40,000, billed as a fixed-scope project or a monthly retainer. The exact number depends on what surfaced in the Scorecard and how many tools or automations make sense to build. We share a written scope before either side commits.
- Where does Sterity work?
- The Health Check, Full Scorecard, and Living Picture are open globally — all run as conversations with our software. AI Build Engagements are Metro Detroit primary, with remote engagements considered for the right fit. Build work involves enough on-site time that geography matters.
- How long does an engagement take?
- A typical AI Build Engagement runs six to eight weeks from kickoff to handoff. The Full Scorecard takes about a week to complete once your team finishes their assessments. Living Picture has no fixed end date — it stays current for as long as the subscription runs. The free Quick Check takes about 10 minutes.
- What does Sterity actually build?
- Custom AI agents, process automations, and AI-powered dashboards — all owned by your team. We start from the verified picture of how your operation actually runs, not a generic template, to figure out what to build before we build it, then hand off code, prompts, and training your team can change without us. We measure success by how quickly you stop needing us.
