Criteria for choosing an AI solution: from defining the task to integrations, data security, and ROI. A checklist for business owners.

The AI solutions market is growing, and it is easy to get lost among promises. To choose correctly, start from the business task, not the technology.

Step 1. Define the task

State what result you need: more sales, less support load, time saved for the executive. A concrete goal sets all the requirements that follow.

The solution must work with your tools: CRM, messengers, payments, calendar. Without integrations, AI stays an isolated "toy".

Ask how the solution avoids hallucinations and protects data. A good agent answers from your knowledge base and has controlled access.

The best solution is not the smartest model, but the one that fits your processes best.

Compare implementation cost with the savings: employee hours, lost leads, processing speed. This reveals the real payback.

Don't roll everything out at once. Launch one scenario, measure the result, and scale what works.

Which task should we start with?

The one that gives a fast, measurable result: sales or support. That way you see payback quickly.

How much does a pilot cost?

It depends on the scenario. We start with a free audit that shows the expected effect before launch.

How long until first results?

First pilot results are usually visible within a few weeks after launch.
