JERRY ILAO  ·  THE 4A AI ROADMAP
2026 EDITION
Free 3-minute diagnostic

Know where to start with AI.

The most common question business owners ask about AI isn't about tools — it's "where and how do we start?" The honest answer: it depends on where you are.

Thirteen questions pinpoint it. You leave with:

✓Your level: where your business actually is on The 4A AI Roadmap™ by Jerry Ilao
✓Your one next move: the gap that matters most, and how to close it
✓Your 90-day starting plan: three doable steps, 30 days each

Answer with what really happens, not what you're planning. The diagnosis is most useful when it's accurate, not flattering.

About this AI assessment

The 4A AI Roadmap Assessment is a free AI maturity assessment for Philippine businesses, created by Jerry Ilao. Twelve plain-language questions measure where AI actually stands in your business today and return your level on The 4A AI Roadmap: Assistants, Automation, Agents, AI-First.

How it works

Every question asks about what really happens in the business: who uses AI in a normal week, how processes actually run, where the knowledge lives. Scoring is gate-based. Each level has a gate, and Level 1 — real weekly AI use by your people — is the foundation every level requires. Above it, your result is the highest gate your answers clear. If you can describe how your business runs, you can answer everything here.

What you get

Three things, sent in full to your email: your level on the roadmap, your one next move (the gap that matters most right now), and a 90-day starting plan in three doable steps. Most people finish in about three minutes.

Who it's for

Owner-led businesses, leadership teams, and managers, from a solo founder to a 500-person company. You can assess the whole company or a single team; the questions adjust to the scope you pick. It works as an AI assessment and readiness check in business language, refined through 200+ transformation projects and live workshops with Filipino business owners.

Common questions

Is the assessment really free?
Yes. The thirteen questions, your level, your one next move, and the 90-day starting plan are all free; the full result arrives by email.
Do I need to be technical to answer?
No. The questions are in plain business language and ask about what actually happens in the business, not about tools or jargon.
How accurate is a self-assessment?
In workshop settings, leaders commonly place themselves one level above where the diagnostic does. That's why the questions ask about a normal week, a real process, an actual customer, and why scoring is gate-based: it measures what really happens, not what's planned.
