Surveyor. Stop guessing. Start measuring.
Surveyor deploys to your team's machines and watches how work actually happens — then shows you exactly where AI and automation pay off. It turns the Assessment from interviews and guesswork into ground-truth measurement.
Who it's for: Owners and operators who suspect there's automatable work hiding in the day-to-day but can't prove where — and want the ROI case before they spend a dollar building anything.
Surveyor runs on three consent-scaled tiers — Activity, Workflow, Full Picture — each matched to written consent. The default is Workflow: a read-only instrument, audio off. Keystrokes, clipboard contents, and email bodies are never captured, at any tier. Visible or quiet is your call — either way, staff are told. We don't offer covert deployment.
What you get.
- A ground-truth map of where your team's hours actually go
- A ranked list of automation + AI opportunities, found automatically
- An hours-and-dollars ROI case for each opportunity
- An institutional-knowledge map of how your business really runs
- A written Assessment deliverable you keep regardless of next steps
What's included.
- →Surveyor deployed to selected machines, with consent and clear scope
- →Three consent-scaled tiers — Activity, Workflow, Full Picture — chosen per machine, consent matched to the choice
- →Work-pattern capture — the tools, tasks, and time, encrypted and scoped to your company alone
- →Automatic opportunity detection, ranked by impact
- →ROI quantification per opportunity (hours saved, dollars saved)
- →Knowledge-map output — the workflows and tribal knowledge made visible
- →Findings rolled into the AI Readiness Assessment deliverable
How we do it.
- 01
Deploy
Surveyor is installed on the machines you choose. You pick a tier per machine — Activity, Workflow, or Full Picture — and the consent paperwork is matched to that choice. Capture is encrypted and siloed to your company alone.
- 02
Observe
For 10 business days it measures how work actually happens — the real tools, tasks, and time, not what a survey claims.
- 03
Report
You get a ranked opportunity list, an ROI case per opportunity, and a knowledge map — the measured backbone of the Assessment.
Examples.
The hidden hours
Surfaces the repetitive copy-paste and re-keying work nobody mentions in a meeting but everybody does all day.
The ranked list
Opportunities ordered by impact, so you start with the automation that pays back fastest.
The ROI case
Each opportunity comes with hours-and-dollars math — the business case is built for you.
The knowledge map
Captures how the work actually flows — the institutional memory you never wrote down.
Measurement beats interviews.
Most assessments rely on what people say they do in a workshop. Surveyor measures what they actually do — so the ROI map is grounded in evidence, not optimism. It is the instrument that makes the AI Readiness Assessment honest.
Questions we get.
Is this employee surveillance?
No. Surveyor runs with consent and a defined scope, keeps captured data siloed to your company, and shows you everything it captures. Its job is to find automatable work and quantify ROI — not to score, rank, or police individual employees. We frame it to your team that way, openly.
Where does the captured data go?
It's stored encrypted on Automated Edge infrastructure, scoped to your company alone — never shared with third parties, never used to train public models, and hard-deleted five business days after we deliver the report. You see what it sees, and you keep the deliverable.
How much does it actually see?
You choose, per machine. Tier 1 (Activity) sees apps, window titles, and active/idle time. Tier 2 (Workflow) adds screen context — enough to reconstruct workflows and spot re-keying. Tier 3 (Full Picture) adds meeting audio. Keystrokes, clipboard contents, and email bodies are never captured, at any tier.
Does it listen to meetings?
Only at Tier 3 (Full Picture), only with signed audio consent from each employee, and with an external-call rule wherever two-party consent law applies. The default tier is Workflow — audio off.
Do I have to keep running it forever?
No. Surveyor is the assessment instrument — it runs for the assessment window to produce the ROI map and knowledge map, then it's done. You're not signing up for permanent monitoring.
What do I actually walk away with?
A ranked opportunity list, an ROI case per opportunity, and a knowledge map — packaged into the written Assessment deliverable, which is yours to keep whether or not you build anything with us.
How is it priced?
Surveyor is part of the paid Assessment. The Assessment fee credits to any project we do together — so the measurement pays for itself if you move forward.
