Strategic audits for the AI era

A complete strategic audit, delivered in days. At a fraction of what traditional firms charge.

Audit Engine compresses what used to be a six week, six figure strategic diagnostic into a productized report. Eleven categories of analysis covering market, competition, customers, operations, marketing, pricing, and the four AI dimensions traditional firms have not built yet: GEO, agent readiness, AI surface posture, and AI adoption opportunity.

Cited sources on every claim. A transparent methodology. AI generated analysis intended to inform decisions, not replace them.

What no one else measures

Four dimensions of AI visibility your customers will care about in 24 months.

Buyers no longer rely solely on traditional search results. They ask AI assistants for recommendations, and they buy what those engines surface. Most strategic audits skip this entirely. We built the methodology.

Generative Engine Optimization

GEO

Your visibility across the major AI answer engines. Scored 0 to 100 across coverage, citation quality, position, share of voice, and sentiment.

Can third party AI agents transact with the business

Agent Readiness

Schema completeness, llms.txt, AI crawler permissions, MCP manifest, transactional endpoints. The dimension no incumbent has productized.

Brand consistency across AI surfaces

AI Surface Posture

Cross engine agreement, citation worthiness, signal hygiene, narrative control. Sits between GEO and Agent Readiness.

Where AI deploys internally, ranked by impact

AI Adoption Opportunity

Operational map, ICE scored opportunities, 90 day implementation sketches per top 5.

And the strategy fundamentals

Every fundamental you would expect from a top tier strategy audit.

Market diagnosis

TAM, SAM, SOM with cited methodology.

Competitive landscape

Direct, indirect, substitutes; positioning 2x2.

Customer and demand

Segments, JTBD, voice of customer.

Internal diagnostic

Operations, value chain, capability gaps.

Marketing funnel

AARRR diagnostic, channel mix, infrastructure gaps.

Pricing observations

Competitor matrix, model distribution.

SEO posture

Technical, content, on page.

How it works

From intake to deck in days, not weeks.

Submit your URL

A short structured intake captures your company, sector, intended positioning, and top three strategic questions.

We run the engine

Seventeen specialized agents work in parallel across market sizing, competitive landscape, customer voice, AI visibility, and seven more dimensions. Findings are synthesized into a clear issue tree and a ranked action backlog.

You receive your audit

A web dashboard plus PDF export. Sentence form findings with cited evidence. A ten action prioritized backlog with effort estimates. The depth of a top tier strategy engagement at a fraction of the time and cost.

For context: a fractional CMO growth audit typically runs $3,000 to $5,000. A traditional strategic diagnostic from a senior consulting team can run $250,000 to over $1,000,000. Both typically skip the AI native dimensions. Audit Engine covers all of it.
