McKinsey charges $500k. Should it be $29?
Teams of AI Agents are here to disrupt the advisory game

Hey everyone,
I'm stuck on the couch with a bad leg after surgery - so picture me doing a weird sitting-down victory dance right now. 🛋️ 💃
Eryn and I have been thinking about this concept since September 2024, getting input from index users along the way. Finally, we had bandwidth to execute and spent the last 7 weeks actually building it.
Today we're finally ready to fix…
😅 The "So What?" Problem
You know that moment after you get your AI assessment results? You see your scores, understand your gaps, maybe even feel motivated to improve.
After processing 250,000+ data points in AI Maturity Index, we kept hearing the same frustration: "Great insights, now what?"
The #1 request from our users? Stop telling us what to improve - tell us exactly how to improve it. That's exactly what we built.

🪛 How It Works
Our existing setup of AI Maturity Index remains the same and free: a 15-minute AI assessment and a benchmark report. Once you have it, get access to:
Upgradable Growth Guide for the full roadmap and implementation plan.
3-minute goal setting session for directional personalization.
Your guide generates in ~15 minutes - real research, real insights, real results.
Each guide is created by a specialized team of AI agents:
Orchestrator - Quality control and pipeline management
Online Researcher - Investigates your professional background
Market Analyst - Finds what top performers in your role actually use
Data Profiler - Maps your AI readiness and capability gaps
Strategist - Develops goal-focused action plans
Roadmap Architect - Builds your personalized implementation roadmap
Quality Checker - Reviews the roadmap from your perspective to catch gaps
Feedback Incorporator - Refines and improves based on quality review
Final Publisher - Delivers your polished, ready-to-execute guide
Now let’s get geeky!
Here's what blew my mind during testing: you can actually watch these agents collaborate in real-time.
The Orchestrator kicks things off, immediately delegating to the Online Researcher: "Find everything you can about this user's professional background and their company's AI initiatives."
Two minutes later, the researcher reports back: "Found their LinkedIn, discovered they work at a 50-person marketing firm, no public AI strategy yet."
The Orchestrator then taps the Market Analyst: "Given this profile, research what top performers in consulting actually use for AI."
But here's where it gets wild - the Quality Checker jumps in and says: "Hold on, this research isn't specific enough for their industry vertical. We need deeper intel."
So the Orchestrator sends the researcher back out with better instructions.
Meanwhile, the Data Profiler is crunching their assessment scores, and the Strategist is already sketching preliminary frameworks. When the Roadmap Architect starts building, the Feedback Incorporator is watching over their shoulder, catching gaps: "This implementation timeline doesn't account for their existing tech stack."
The whole thing feels like watching a really good consulting team brainstorm - except it happens in 15 minutes instead of 15 meetings.
By the end, you're not just getting a roadmap. You're getting something that went through multiple rounds of peer review, fact-checking, and refinement.
It's like having McKinsey's strategy team, but they actually talk to each other.

I hope that this will bring the end of "so what?" AI paralysis.
Just your clear path forward.
⏰ Free until midnight tonight. $29 after that.
PS 1. - We are going live today on Product Hunt - upvotes are very welcome ❤️
P.S. 2 - I just got my own guide (yes, I used our own product) and it's scarily accurate. Even gave me GitHub links I didn't know existed.
Enjoy your day,
Iwo
