LEVEL 1 / 5

Your AI Maturity:
Level 1 — Rule-Based Automation

You’ve taken the first real step into automation.
At Level 1, your company uses simple tools like macros, workflows or rule based systems to handle repetitive tasks. This reduces some manual work and brings small efficiency gains. But these automations are fragile. They break when something unexpected happens, they cannot handle unstructured inputs, and they still depend on people to monitor and fix issues. The focus now is to make these early wins more reliable and scalable.

What this means?

At Level 1, automation exists but only for very clear and repetitive steps. It lowers the workload but remains limited. Without monitoring, exception handling and structure, these automations cannot scale across the company. They help in specific cases, but they do not transform how the business runs yet.

How to Move Forward

Deep Dive: Understanding Level 1

Reaching Level 1 means your company has proven that automation can save time. But scripts and workflows alone are not enough. They often create hidden costs when they break and require manual supervision. If there is no visibility or clear ownership, people lose trust and leaders hesitate to invest further.

The opportunity is to professionalize automation. Treat it as a program, not a collection of scattered tools. Add observability, track the ROI of each workflow, and test AI where inputs are variable. Over the next 90 days, the goal should be to turn fragile scripts into reliable processes. With this foundation in place, you will be ready for Level 2, where intelligent systems begin to enhance workflows more directly.
