AI for small and medium businesses

What to automate, how much it saves and how not to overspend. No coding.

It's a book by Axel Rosso for anyone running a small or medium business who wants to know, with their own numbers, what's worth automating with artificial intelligence before paying a vendor: sixteen steps, 23 to 27 hours of your own work and not a line of code.

In many companies, hours go into copying data from one system to another, answering the same questions and reading documents to pull out three facts. And someone has already offered to solve it with artificial intelligence.

They may be right. They may also be about to sell you something you don't need. This book is for finding out with your own numbers, before you pay.

It doesn't teach you to code or to talk to a chatbot. It's a sixteen-step path, 23 to 27 hours of your own desk work not counting the reading, that ends with a decision made with numbers and not with enthusiasm.

What you end up with in your folder

  • Your repeated tasks, with hours

    What repeats in your business and how much time each thing takes.

  • Ranked candidates

    What's worth automating first and what's better left in people's hands.

  • The full calculation

    How much it saves and how much it costs to build and maintain, not just the first part.

  • Ten questions and a trial

    What to ask the vendor, and a trial with an end date before you decide whether the system stays.
