The Foundry Audit, explained. What you get in 90 seconds.
The free AI Opportunity Audit is a real product, not a lead magnet dressed up. Here's exactly what happens when you run it.
Most "free audits" from AI agencies are 30-minute discovery calls disguised as value. You answer questions, they take notes, they come back in two weeks with a 40-slide deck that's mostly boilerplate.
The Foundry Audit is different. It's an actual product.
What you do
You answer ten questions at /audit. About your company, your stack, your pain points, your goals. Takes about 4 minutes.
You click submit.
What happens in the next 90 seconds
Your answers go to a Claude Sonnet 4.6 model running on a system we built for this exact purpose. The system:
- Reads your inputs and identifies your business profile (industry, size, growth stage, ops maturity)
- Maps your stated pain points to the Foundry catalog of 40+ intervention patterns we've seen work across engagements
- Scores each intervention on ROI, effort, and fit specifically for your situation
- Writes the report in operator voice. No consulting jargon, no leverage-synergy language, no slide-deck filler.
The report lands in your inbox 90 seconds later. Real personalized content. Your name, your industry, your goals, your top five AI interventions ranked with expected impact and effort.
What's in the report
Four sections, roughly 900 words:
Executive summary. Two sentences on your biggest opportunity and expected impact.
The five highest-ROI interventions. Each with its category (automation, dashboard, agent, or strategy), what it solves for your pain points, expected specific metric outcome, and effort bracket (small, medium, large).
Recommended sequencing. Which to tackle first and why. How each system makes the next one cheaper and more valuable.
What Foundry would build first. A concrete 2-4 sentence description of the specific first 30-day deliverable for your business.
Plus a next-step: book a 30-minute walkthrough if you want to go deeper.
Why we give it away
Two reasons.
First, it's actually cheap for us to run. The audit costs a few cents of Claude API calls per submission. We don't pay a salesperson to do it manually. We don't send it to a team of consultants to review. The whole point of building an AI shop is that we use the systems we sell.
Second, it qualifies leads better than any sales call would. If you read your audit and it doesn't resonate, you're not a fit. That saves both of us time. If it does resonate, you show up to the call already halfway sold, because you've seen us actually do the thing we claim to do.
Will I get spammed
No. Submitting the audit puts you in our CRM as a contact with a timestamp. You get the report email. You get zero follow-up unless you reply to the report or book a call yourself.
We don't pitch. If you want to talk, you reach out. If you don't, you keep the report.
What it won't do
It won't write your implementation plan. It won't tell you exact prices for your specific engagement. It won't replace a real conversation with your team about your priorities.
It will give you a ranked list of what's worth paying attention to, based on what you told us.
Who shouldn't run it
Don't run the audit if:
- You have less than five employees and a revenue under $500k (we're not right for you yet)
- You already know exactly what you want built and just need a dev shop quote
- You're a competitor scraping our methodology
For everyone else:
Four minutes. Ninety-second turnaround. No call required. Yours to keep whether you work with us or not.
