The ladder
The four stages of AI adoption
Place yourself on the ladder — most teams are further down than they think.
- 1
Experimentation
Individuals are trying AI on their own. A few see value; most don't. No shared strategy, and the wins don't compound.
You're here if: a handful of people use ChatGPT, there's no shared plan, and nothing carries beyond the individual.
- 2
Application
Teams have found real use cases and early wins, but they're trapped in silos. Results ride on a few enthusiasts, and the knowledge doesn't transfer.
You're here if: you've had real wins, but they live in pockets and depend on one or two champions.
- 3
Integration
AI is wired into how work actually happens. Custom assistants and agents run real workflows, and you can measure the hours and dollars they save.
You're here if: AI runs inside real workflows and you can point to specific hours and dollars saved.
- 4
Transformation
AI is part of your operating model and your competitive advantage. It shapes strategy, not just tasks — and you improve faster than competitors can copy.
You're here if: AI shapes strategy and decisions, and you're pulling ahead of competitors who can't keep up.
