5 MINUTES · COMPLETELY FREE · NO SALES CALL · BUILT IN AUSTRALIA
THE PROBLEM

Right now, figuring out AI is a full-time job.

And you already have one.

Hours of research

YouTube videos, blog posts, webinars, podcasts — you could spend weeks and still not know what applies to a business your size.

Vendor overload

Every AI tool claims it'll change your business. But they're selling their product, not solving your problem. Good luck getting honest advice.

Expensive consultants

Most AI consultancies charge $5K–$20K for a discovery engagement. And they're built for enterprises with 500 people, not businesses with 5.

No clear starting point

You know AI is probably relevant. But "where do I start?" is the question nobody gives you a straight answer to.

THE SHORTCUT

We built the tool we wished existed.

A single assessment that replaces weeks of research, dozens of vendor calls, and thousands in consulting fees. Five minutes. Completely free. And brutally honest.

A report worth reading. Not a lead magnet.

Every report is generated from your answers. Not a template. Not a generic PDF. Yours.

WHY THIS IS DIFFERENT

Built different. On purpose.

01 / HONEST

We tell you where AI won't help

Most tools only tell you the upside. We tell you both sides — where AI makes sense for your business and where it's not worth it yet. No hype. No bandwagon pressure.

02 / BUILT FOR SMBs

Not enterprise advice squeezed down

Every question, every benchmark, every recommendation is designed for businesses with 1–30 people. We don't tell you to "hire a Chief AI Officer" or "build a data lake."

03 / NO GATEKEEPING

The full report is free. Always.

No "enter your email for the premium version." No "book a call to unlock your results." You get everything upfront because that's how trust is built.

WHO IT'S FOR

If you've got a small team and five minutes.

The Health Check is built for Australian businesses with 1–30 people. If you run one of these, it was made for you.

QUESTIONS

The stuff you're probably wondering.

Is this actually free?

Yes. The full Health Check — score, pillar breakdown, quick wins, ROI projection — is free. No credit card. No "premium tier." We built this to be useful, not to bait-and-switch.

How long does it take?

About 5 minutes. 23 multiple-choice questions. Most people finish faster than their coffee goes cold.

What happens with my data?

Your answers are used to generate your report and nothing else. We don't sell your data, we don't add you to a mailing list, and we don't share your results with anyone.

How is this different from other AI assessments?

Most AI readiness tools are built for enterprises with hundreds of employees. Ours is built specifically for businesses with 1–30 people. Every question, benchmark, and recommendation is scoped to what a small team can actually act on. We also tell you where AI won't help — not just where it will.

What if my score is low?

That's useful information, not bad news. A low score doesn't mean AI isn't for you — it means we've identified specific areas to work on first. The report includes practical steps you can take this week, for free, to start improving.

Who built this?

PassCtrl.AI is an Australian company focused on making AI readiness practical and accessible for small businesses. We built the assessment engine using a proprietary scoring methodology designed specifically for the SMB market.

You've spent longer reading this page than the assessment takes.

Five minutes. That's it.
