iA AUDIT

Don't trust the AI.
Audit it.

The iA AUDIT tests what an AI system actually does, what it claims, what it can prove, and where the implementation differs from the marketing. It applies the same standard to any AI system — including our own.

What the audit checks
01

Claims vs evidence

What does the system say it does, and can it show proof? Unsupported claims fail the audit.

02

Grounded answers

Are answers based on the business's real information, or on what the model guessed? Prices, hours, policies and contacts are checked against ground truth.

03

Hallucination risk

Where can the system confidently invent something that isn't true — and does it flag uncertainty when it should?

04

Implementation vs marketing

Does the deployed system match the pitch? A report that looks right but isn't actually wired up fails the audit.

05

Policy and boundaries

Does the system respect the business's rules, data handling and its own declared boundaries?

Why it exists

Because "the AI said so" isn't a source.

AI systems produce confident, convincing output — including output that is entirely invented. Reports of hundreds of leads, certifications that don't exist, features that were never deployed. The iA AUDIT exists to catch that class of fabrication, before a business acts on it.

Any business running, buying or reviewing an AI system can run the same checks: what is it grounded in, what can it prove, and what does it do when it doesn't know?

The 15-minute audit

The audit is a 15-minute conversation about your business: what messages you get, what you answer by hand, what slips, and where an intelligent agent could take work off your plate. At the end you'll know exactly what an agent would do for you — and what it would cost. You can take that and decide. No obligation, no hard sell.

What happens in the 15 minutes

  • We look at your customer communication: what comes in on WhatsApp, email or calls.
  • We identify the repetitive work — the questions you answer over and over.
  • We spot the leaks: messages missed, replies late, follow-ups forgotten.
  • We map what an intelligent agent could handle, with your knowledge and rules.
  • We give you an honest view of cost and value — including when it's not worth it yet.

What you'll leave with

  • A clear picture of the repetitive work in your business.
  • Which of it an agent can safely take over (and what stays human).
  • What business information you'd need to provide.
  • A straight answer on cost, in rand, with the full monthly picture.
  • A recommendation — even if the recommendation is "not yet".

Who it's for

South African small businesses and growing teams that answer customer messages by hand — trades, salons, guesthouses, professional practices, retailers, and everyone in between. If customers message you on WhatsApp and somebody has to reply, the audit is relevant to you.

Who it's not for

Not for businesses looking for a cheap chatbot licence, or expecting "AI that runs everything" with no involvement. We build agents around your business knowledge — that takes your input and your decisions. If you want magic with zero effort, we're the wrong people and we'll say so.

What we will never do

  • No fake urgency or "only 3 slots left".
  • No guaranteed-results promises.
  • No claims that we created the AI models — we build the intelligence layer around your business.
  • No personal information collected beyond what's needed for the conversation.

How to book

Message us on WhatsApp and we'll find 15 minutes that suits you. Bring nothing — we'll ask the questions.

Is the audit really free?

Yes — 15 minutes, no fee, no obligation. We don't need your card and we don't send follow-up spam. If we can't help, we'll tell you plainly.

Do I need to prepare anything?

No. The questions are about your business, which you know better than anyone. A look at your WhatsApp (how many messages, what kind) helps but isn't required.

What if I'm not technical?

Perfect — the audit is in plain language. The whole point is that you shouldn't need to be technical.

What happens after the audit?

You get our honest read and a quote if you want one. You decide. Many people take the findings and start with a small first scope; some decide the timing isn't right. Both are fine.

Start an audit
