Common Questions

Scorecard FAQ

What does the readiness score measure?+

The score measures how prepared your business is across five dimensions: process structure (are your workflows documented and repeatable?), data quality (can systems access the data they need?), technical infrastructure (do you have the integrations and APIs to connect systems?), change management readiness (will your team adopt new workflows?), and leadership alignment (is there executive support and budget?)

What is the difference between Starter, Ready, and Advanced tiers?+

Starter (0-40) means foundational work is needed before automation delivers ROI. This typically means process documentation, data cleanup, or tool consolidation. Ready (41-70) means your business has the structure to automate specific processes and will see good ROI within 6 months. Advanced (71-100) means your infrastructure and culture supports enterprise-grade AI agent deployments at scale.

How long does the scorecard take?+

Under 3 minutes. 10 questions with Yes, No, and Partially options. No text input required. No registration or email needed at any point. You can restart and retake as many times as you like.

Is my scorecard data stored anywhere?+

No. All scoring logic runs in your browser using JavaScript. No data is sent to any server. Your answers are never stored, logged, or shared with anyone including Social Stardom. You can verify this by running the tool offline after the page loads.

What should I do after completing the scorecard?+

If you score Advanced: book a discovery call with Social Stardom to scope your first agent deployment. Your foundation is there. This is the moment to move fast. If you score Ready: use our Process Audit tool to identify your highest-ROI starting process. If you score Starter: follow the foundational recommendations provided and revisit in 2-3 months after addressing the gaps flagged.
