Throwaway PoC
- Builds before the workflow is understood.
- Optimizes for wow, not ownership.
- Leaves approvals and exceptions unresolved.
- Creates code nobody wants to own later.
Paid diagnostic
Know which workflow is worth deploying.
A 1-2 week Workflow Deployment Assessment: workflow map, ROI estimate, data and system readiness, governance design, and fixed-price deployment proposal. No PoC. No demo theatre.
Workflow Deployment Assessment
Priced as a decision, credited as a deposit.
$5K-15KThe fee is credited against the 45-Day Deployment Pod if you proceed within 60 days.
01 - Why paid
A PoC asks if AI can work. The diagnostic asks if this workflow is worth deploying.
That difference matters. The expensive question is whether your workflow has the owner, data, approval rules, economics, and access required to go live.
Workflow Deployment Assessment
- Maps people, tools, decisions, and exceptions.
- Quantifies likely ROI before deployment.
- Defines approval, exception, audit, and KPI paths.
- Ends with deploy / narrow / reject.
02 - Deliverable
A decision document your leadership can actually use.
The named deliverable is the Workflow Deployment Assessment. It should be useful even if you do not proceed with Agentra.
Workflow map
Systems, people, actions, handoffs, decisions, and exceptions.
ROI estimate
Time saved, revenue recovered, cost reduced, or risk lowered.
Readiness review
Data, APIs, access, blockers, owners, and security constraints.
Governance design
Human approval, exception handling, audit, and KPI paths.
Fixed-price proposal
Deployment scope, conditions, commercials, and Definition of Done.
Fee credit window
Credited against the Deployment Pod if you proceed within 60 days.
Inside the assessment
The diagnostic should make a deploy, narrow, or reject decision obvious.
A useful assessment is not a strategy memo. It is a decision pack with enough workflow, economics, and governance detail to decide whether this slice should move into production.
| Section | What it answers | Decision value |
|---|---|---|
| Workflow boundary | Where the workflow starts, where it ends, who owns it, and what is explicitly out of scope. | Keeps the work anchored to one live path instead of a broad AI program. |
| Systems and access | Which tools, records, APIs, exports, and approval channels are required for the first slice. | Shows whether the workflow can be connected safely and quickly. |
| Decision and exception map | What AI can prepare, what humans approve, what gets held, and how exceptions are resolved. | Makes governance part of the design, not a post-launch cleanup. |
| KPI and ROI model | Baseline metric, expected movement, measurement window, and assumptions that need validation. | Turns AI interest into an investment decision. |
| Deployment recommendation | Deploy, narrow, or reject, with conditions, risk, commercial scope, and next-step path. | Gives leadership a clear yes/no decision instead of a vague roadmap. |
03 - Commercials
The diagnostic has standalone value.
Pricing is localized: INR appears only for India when the region is detected or selected; everyone else sees USD by default.
AI Workflow Diagnostic
$5K-15K1-2 week assessment, 10-12 page decision document, credited against deployment within 60 days.
Then deployment
$35K-100KOne workflow enters a pod only after access, scope, owner, and KPI are confirmed.
Fit rule
4/6
A workflow should meet at least four of six conditions before serious deployment spend.
04 - Workflow fit rule
The diagnostic is for workflows with a real chance of going live.
Frequent enough to justify automation
Time-consuming enough to matter
Data already exists in systems
Decisions or approvals follow repeatable rules
Senior owner can make decisions fast
A KPI can be measured before and after
Possible outcomes
A good diagnostic can say no.
The assessment is valuable because it protects your team from funding a deployment before owner, access, KPI, and approval rules are ready.
Deploy
The workflow has owner, data, access, approval rules, enough volume, and a measurable KPI. It can move into a 45-day pod.
Narrow
The pain is real but the first slice is too broad. Agentra recommends a smaller launch path and the blocked decisions to resolve.
Reject
The workflow lacks ownership, economics, access, stable rules, or safe approval boundaries. Do not buy a deployment pod yet.
