IS YOUR AI TOOL WORTH IT? (FREE AUDIT CHECKLIST)



This checklist to vet your AI tool in 5 minutes or less.


1. HIDDEN COSTS

  • Is pricing fully transparent (no vague "contact sales" pages)?
  • Are there unexpected fees (setup, training, overage charges)?
  • Does the contract lock you in with auto-renewals?


2. ACCURACY RED FLAGS

  • Does it make frequent errors requiring manual fixes?
  • Have you tested its outputs against real-world data?
  • Does it improve over time with updates/feedback?


3. ROI TRACKING

  • Can you measure specific metrics (time saved, revenue generated)?
  • Does it provide dashboards/reports for ROI?
  • Are your business goals aligned with its outputs?


4. SETUP & INTEGRATION

  • Is it plug-and-play (minimal IT support needed)?
  • Does it work with your existing tools (CRM, email, etc.)?
  • Is onboarding documentation clear and helpful?


5. SUPPORT & UPDATES

  • Is live support available (chat, phone, email)?
  • Are updates rolled out regularly (security, features)?
  • Is there an active user community/forum?
