Automation Readiness Checker
Assess whether a process has the characteristics of a practical automation candidate.
What makes a process ready for automation?
Repeatable, frequent, stable processes with consistent inputs, predictable rules, structured data, and few exceptions generally score higher. Heavy judgment, approvals, or error sensitivity reduce readiness.
Worked example
A stable daily process with structured inputs and predictable rules scores higher than an occasional process with frequent exceptions and substantial judgment.
Assumptions and limitations
Eleven factors receive 0, 1, or 2 points and are normalized to 100. This transparent heuristic does not use AI. Results are estimates and do not guarantee savings, feasibility, or outcomes.
