Service 02 · Automation audit
What your team still does by hand
Every team has tasks nobody owns because they have always been done that way. They stay invisible until somebody counts them.
Fig. 02 — Automation audit
What this usually looks like
- Copying between two systems that should talk to each other.
- Retyping a figure from an email into a sheet.
- Rebuilding the same report every Monday from the same export.
- Chasing a status that one query would answer.
What you get
- A written list of every manual step found, with who does it and how often.
- Hours per month for each one, so the size is a number and not a feeling.
- Effort to fix, in days.
- A ranked order of work: the best return for the least change.
The same method used to reconcile a multi-site operation, and to catch a rate-limit failure that had locked a client out of their own hosting panel.
Questions
Do you need access to our systems?+
For the audit, no. A screen share and your team describing the work is enough to produce the list and the ranking.
What if nothing is worth automating?+
Then the report says so and you have spent one day to learn that. That is a good outcome, not a wasted one.
How is effort estimated?+
In days, from the same technique list used on every build, so two estimates are comparable.

Tell us what is not working
Describe the problem in a few lines. You get a plain answer about whether it is worth fixing and what it would take, before any money changes hands.
