Direct AI before another pilot turns into another unfinished initiative.
A 1-2 week executive Assessment that finds the workflows worth fixing, the AI opportunities worth owning, the risks worth controlling, and the first 90-day build sequence.
Your IT team can support AI. They should not have to define the entire business strategy for it.

The issue is rarely that no one is trying AI. The issue is that no one owns what it should become.
AI is already happening, but no one owns the operating strategy.
Teams are testing tools, vendors are pitching demos, and leaders are still left asking which workflows actually deserve attention.
Technical teams are being asked to make business-model calls.
IT should define access, security, systems, and implementation constraints. Leadership still has to decide what AI should do for the business.
The next step is unclear, so momentum turns into scattered spend.
Without a workflow owner, ROI baseline, and first build sequence, AI becomes another budget line instead of an operating improvement.
We help executives direct the AI strategy so IT is not forced to invent it alone.
IT remains essential for security, systems, access, infrastructure, and implementation support. The Assessment helps leadership decide which workflows matter, what risk posture is acceptable, which outcomes are worth measuring, and who owns the initiative after kickoff.
Owner-level answers before AI becomes another budget line.
The Assessment uses the same strategic arc executives are paying to learn: identify the opportunity, develop the plan, align stakeholders, sequence implementation, and monitor progress.
Which workflow is creating the most drag?
Where can AI create measurable business value?
What should not be automated yet?
What data, systems, or governance gaps block progress?
Who should own the initiative internally?
What should happen in the next 90 days?
Workflow Bottleneck Map
The task, handoff, report, or decision path creating the most visible drag.
AI Opportunity Heatmap
Opportunities scored by business impact, feasibility, risk, and ownership clarity.
ROI / Total Business Impact Baseline
A practical read on time, margin, capacity, and cost of inaction before anything gets built.
Governance and Risk Findings
Where data, security, compliance, approval, or accountability gaps need control.
Ownership and Stakeholder Map
Who directs the initiative, who needs input, and where IT supports execution.
90-Day Implementation Sequence
The first build path, what follows it, and what progress should be monitored.
A focused assessment, not another open-ended AI workshop.
The goal is not to produce more ideas. The goal is to decide what should happen first and who should own it.
Apply or start paid
Free applications are reviewed for fit. Paid Assessments can start directly through checkout.
Map the operating drag
We review leadership context, current AI attempts, and the workflows where time, margin, or trust is leaking.
Score value and control
Each opportunity is checked against impact, feasibility, ownership, risk, data readiness, and systems constraints.
Read out the first sequence
You leave with the owner model, practical guardrails, and the first 90 days of implementation work.
Apply for one of the remaining free Assessments.
A short application keeps the $5,000 waiver selective. We are prioritizing companies where the Assessment can uncover visible operating drag and produce a useful before-and-after story.

Selection priority
- Clear workflow pain leadership already cares about.
- Access to an executive owner and the people doing the work.
- Potential for a useful operating story, named or anonymous.
A free Assessment does not require a public case study. We ask because the best fits are companies where both sides can see a real operational story emerge.
The same 1-2 week executive Assessment without the free-slot review. Best for companies that already know they want to start.
Start the Paid AssessmentQuestions leaders usually ask before this becomes real.
Is this an AI strategy workshop?
No. It is an applied assessment of your workflows, operating constraints, risk posture, and implementation options.
Is this replacing our IT team?
No. IT remains essential for security, access, systems, and implementation support. The Assessment gives leadership the business direction IT needs.
Why are some assessments free?
FoxTrove is selectively waiving the fee for companies where the operating pain, executive access, and case-study potential are strong.
What if we are not selected?
The paid Assessment remains available. You can also run the Operational Pulse first if you want a lighter diagnostic.
