Small Business AI Buying Kit
Choose AI for the work it can do. Not the promise in the pitch.
A practical, vendor-neutral framework for deciding whether an AI tool fits a real business workflow before you commit. Define the job, ask for evidence, test the results and understand the full operating cost.
Public preview only. The full package is not yet on sale.
A clearer buying decision, without the hype.
For small business owners and managers comparing an AI tool, preparing a pilot or questioning an automation proposal. Start with a specific workflow and measurable acceptance criteria, then compare the evidence with the cost of making the tool useful.
01 / Understand
Buyer guide & evidence checklist
A nine-page buyer guide plus a two-page editable checklist covering workflow fit, output quality, human oversight, data handling and vendor dependency. Package formats: PDF and editable Word.
02 / Calculate
Cost calculator
An offline browser tool that separates cash costs, review labor and potential time released. Use your own assumptions rather than advertised return-on-investment claims.
03 / Request
Evidence-request template
A two-page editable request for evidence on tool capabilities, data handling, operating costs and contract terms. The checklist also helps document pilot criteria and a proceed, revise or stop decision.
