Shoothill Free Audit →
For Business Owners and Managers

Your team is already using AI.
Is your business ready for it?

Most businesses are reacting to AI one tool at a time. The ones pulling ahead are doing something different. They're building a proper AI strategy and reshaping how their whole business operates. Shoothill.AI helps you build and implement that strategy, safely and without the jargon.

"Every month you wait, the gap between AI-ready businesses and everyone else gets wider. But the window to catch up is still open. And Shoothill.AI is here to help you through it."

The four things every business owner is worried about

You don't need to understand the technology. What matters is addressing these concerns and that's precisely what Shoothill.AI is built to do.

01

"Are my competitors already ahead of me?"

Some will be and the gap is growing. But the window to catch up is still open. The businesses Shoothill.AI works with aren't playing catch up for long. Most see the shift happen in weeks, not months.

02

"What if something goes wrong with AI?"

It's a fair concern. AI without structure creates real risk like data leaks, compliance gaps and staff going rogue with tools. Shoothill.AI puts the guardrails in place before that happens.

03

"Will my team actually use it?"

Only if it makes their job easier. Shoothill.AI doesn't bolt AI onto existing chaos. The process starts by simplifying and then connecting, so that using AI feels natural, not like extra work.

04

"What does this actually cost and what do I get?"

The audit is free, so there's complete clarity on what's involved before a penny is spent. No mystery pricing, no vague roadmaps just specific outcomes, agreed upfront.

What actually changes in your business

This isn't about adding a chatbot to your website. It's about changing how your whole business gets information, makes decisions, and gets things done.

Five disconnected systemsCRM, finance, projects, HR, all separate, never talking to each other
Staff copying data between toolsHours lost every week on work that should take seconds
Team using ChatGPT ad hocNo oversight, no security, no consistency, just individual workarounds

Shoothill.AI in action

Here's what an AI readiness engagement looks like in practice.

A Telford-based manufacturer
AI Readiness Programme

A Telford-based manufacturer, engaged Shoothill.AI to assess and modernise their data infrastructure ahead of a broader AI rollout. The project involved migrating data from on-premise storage to SharePoint, restructuring permissions so the right people had access to the right information, and rolling out Microsoft Copilot across the team with hands-on training.

The result: a business with its data in order, its team equipped to use AI tools confidently, and the foundations in place to keep building.
