Your jobs

Every computer job that takes more than an hour a week

Include the ones your staff do and the ones you pay somebody outside the business to do. Do not filter the list — the job you assume cannot be helped is usually the easiest one.

Two things worth knowing

Most of this is not an AI problem

Which matters, because the cheap fixes are the ones people skip looking for.

01

Automation and AI are not the same thing

Most of what makes a business system valuable is plain automation: fetching, moving, checking and totting up, on a schedule, for almost nothing. AI earns its place in the two or three steps where something has to be read, judged or written. Good systems are mostly automation with a little AI where it counts.

02

Some of these are worth leaving alone

A job that takes twenty minutes a week costs less to keep doing than to automate properly, and anyone who tells you otherwise is selling. That is why the table marks the small ones "leave it" rather than pretending everything on your list is worth a project.

03

The list is the useful part

Whatever you do next, a written inventory of where the week goes is worth having. Most businesses have never made one, which is exactly why the same three jobs quietly cost them five figures a year.

If you would rather learn to fix these yourself than have them fixed for you, that is what Build With AI is for — and this workbook becomes the coursework.

In short

What is an operations audit?

An operations audit lists the repetitive jobs in your business, such as re-typing data, chasing documents and building reports by hand, and totals what they cost each month in staff time. It shows which jobs are worth automating first. Devute's workbook is free.
