Get found when buyers ask AI
When a buyer asks an AI which vendor is best and you don't come up, the sale happened without you. Run a fixed prompt battery across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Mode, and Claude — PRESENT / PARTIAL / ABSENT per engine, weakest one named to fix first.
71 kits and counting
Single-problem, business-specific tools you can put to work in an afternoon — a spreadsheet, a scorecard, or an editable policy doc. Each solves one tightly-scoped problem and ends in an honest verdict (keep / fix / cut · automate / review / skip), priced a tier under Systems because it does less by design. Browse by the call you need to make.
Plug the leaks
Spreadsheet · client profitability
Rank every client by true profit after cost-to-serve. Find the busy-but-unprofitable accounts hiding in plain sight. Keep / reprice / fix / fire verdict per client. Example finds $5,500/yr leaking.
Spreadsheet · for ecommerce sellers
True profit per SKU after returns — refunded margin, processing cost, and unrecovered stock. Find the listings that look great and quietly lose money. Keep / fix / drop verdict. Example loses $28,514 to returns.
Spreadsheet · for ecommerce sellers
True margin on every discount — incremental vs cannibalized — with a keep / limit / kill verdict and the margin handed to full-price buyers. Example: a −$6,000 sitewide sale vs a +$6,200 new-customer code.
Spreadsheet · for product businesses
Flags every SKU Dead / Slow / Healthy, totals the cash trapped in slow and dead stock, and estimates annual carrying cost — a per-SKU liquidation list, not a blended percentage. Example: $6,900 trapped, $1,725/yr carrying.
Spreadsheet · for small businesses
Ranks unpaid invoices into Current / Remind / Chase now / Write-off review by amount, age, and risk — plus three escalating dunning emails. Example: $33,200 outstanding, $19,800 recoverable this week.
One-time .xlsx · audit your stack
List every tool, see paid vs used seats, flag duplicates, and get a keep / right-size / consolidate / cut verdict on each. Built-in example recovers $6,096/yr on a $16k stack.
Spreadsheet · for ecommerce & marketers
Grade a page's Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) against published thresholds and estimate the revenue the gap is costing you — GOOD / NEEDS WORK / POOR from your own field values, with the one metric to fix first. A technically sound page is a prerequisite for AI Overview inclusion.
Spreadsheet · for ecommerce & retention teams
Grade your cart-recovery flow on the seven levers that drive recovered revenue — sequence depth, timing, dynamic cart contents, discount discipline, mobile, deliverability, suppression — for a weighted 0-100 score and OPTIMIZED / UNDERPERFORMING / DORMANT, with a single-message gate that caps a one-email flow no matter how polished. Your marks, your numbers, no baked-in benchmark.
Spreadsheet · for small business, marketers & agencies
Find the forms where leads silently die — broken delivery, dead thank-you pages, spam false-positives, unusable mobile forms, missing tracking. Grades your lead-capture plumbing CAPTURING / LEAKING / BLACK HOLE per form via MIN-as-headline, with a dispositive no-delivery gate. Your testing, your marks, no baked-in benchmark.
Spreadsheet · for merchants & finance
A strong chargeback rebuttal aimed at the wrong reason code still loses. Pick the code the bank filed, mark the evidence that counts for it, and get SUBMIT-READY / STRENGTHEN / DON'T FIGHT — with two dispositive overrides: a blown response deadline or a missing decisive item forces DON'T FIGHT no matter how complete the rest is. The sample's 93/100 packet reads DON'T FIGHT because the window closed. Knowing which disputes to skip is worth as much as knowing which to win. One .xlsx; grades the evidence packet, not people. Not legal advice.
One-time .xlsx · for founders & ops
Vendor contracts renew themselves unless you give notice a fixed number of days before term-end — miss it and you roll into another year at a higher price with zero leverage. Reads every contract on two independent tracks: the notice-deadline clock (ACT NOW / WINDOW OPEN / LOCKED IN) and a trap-severity score (HARSH / MODERATE / MILD) from the clauses you confirm. The window-closed gate is the spine — once the deadline passes it reads LOCKED IN however mild the terms. One .xlsx; not legal advice.
One-time .xlsx · for shippers & ops
FedEx and UPS refund late deliveries and billing errors — but only when you ask, inside a filing window most shippers never track. Paste your invoice one row per shipment and pick the refund reason; the reason selects the deadline (late = 15 days, billing errors = 30) and whether the money-back guarantee matters. Each shipment reads FILE THE CLAIM / WORTH A LOOK / LET IT GO, with two worsen-only gates flooring any claim that's expired or has no live remedy. Totals only what's claimable today. A one-time tool you own, not a service that keeps 30–50% of your recovery. Not legal advice.
One-time .xlsx · for AP & finance
Payment timing leaks cash three ways and most AP reviews catch one: a discount left on the table, a bill paid too early for nothing (free financing to the vendor), and a discount already lost. Each invoice gets one directional verdict — TAKE THE DISCOUNT / PAY ON TIME / PAYING TOO EARLY — headlined by real dollars, not a paper percentage. A worsen-only cash-buffer gate floors a TAKE to PAY ON TIME when your buffer is too thin to fund it: a 37% return you can't afford is an overdraft, not a capture. Totals your timing leak and names the biggest to fix first. One .xlsx; not financial advice.
Math, not nerve
Decision kit · math, not nerve
Model a price change, see the customer loss you can absorb, and get a Raise / Hold & Test / Restructure verdict with the cushion in plain percentage points. Example: a 10% raise nets +$1,200/mo at 8% loss.
Decision kit · math, not nerve
A customer's about to churn — should you save, pause, or let them go? Run three retained-margin paths from your own numbers, with a margin-floor gate that won't let you save a customer into a loss. Example: a tempting SAVE ($2,160) flipped to PAUSE because it retains only 30% margin, below the 40% floor.
Spreadsheet · for AI buyers
Put a net dollar value on every AI tool — after subscription, amortized setup, and the oversight time most ROI math ignores — with a keep / expand / kill verdict. Example: a $1,380/mo stack nets +$320, +$1,330 after cutting two losers.
One-time .xlsx · forecast your AI spend
Enter five numbers and project your AI spend forward across the budget year. Finds the month you blow the budget, returns ON BUDGET / TRIM NOW / BLOWOUT AHEAD with a runaway-growth gate, and gives the monthly cap to land back on budget.
One-time .xlsx · price the exposure
Compute the fully-loaded cost per outcome for each AI workflow (tokens × runs × retry × growth ÷ outcomes) and band it PREDICTABLE / DRIFTING / TOKEN SHOCK, with a gate that forces TOKEN SHOCK when there's no usage cap and uncapped true-up. No baked-in per-token price; every figure is your own.
One-time .xlsx · price the workslop
Put a dollar figure on the AI “workslop” your team verifies and redoes. Per team it computes monthly and annual cost and a per-head verdict — CONTAINED / LEAKING / EPIDEMIC — and rolls the org up to its worst team. No baked-in per-employee stat; every dollar is your own.
Spreadsheet · for S-corp owners
Is the salary you pay yourself defensible to the IRS — and is the distribution even safe to pull? No hard-coded ratio (the 60/40 rule is folklore); you supply your own market wage and it grades six factors into DEFENSIBLE / THIN / RECLASSIFICATION RISK, with a dispositive DO NOT DISTRIBUTE cash override on the draw. A defensibility check, not tax advice.
Google Sheets + Excel
Compare human-hours vs AI for every team task — counting real AI usage cost and setup cost — and get an honest verdict: ✓ Automate, ⚠ Review, or ✗ Skip.
Spreadsheet · for vendor evaluation
Scrutinize an AI vendor's marketed claims before you sign, claim by claim. Mark each on verifiability and contract backing 0–3; the weaker axis sets the verdict (SUBSTANTIATED / GET IN WRITING / RED FLAG) and a high-stakes gate forces the whole vendor to WALK AWAY when an ROI or autonomy promise is both unproven and not in the contract — so five clean claims and one unbacked ROI promise still reads WALK AWAY. One .xlsx, three tabs, worked three-vendor example.
Spreadsheet · for pricing changes
Grade an AI-suggested price change before you publish it. Four checks — margin floor honored, elasticity sourced, competitive claim substantiated, no fabricated benchmark — return DEFENSIBLE / PRESSURE-TEST / DO NOT PUBLISH, with a worsen-only gate that forces DO NOT PUBLISH on an invented benchmark or a below-floor price even when the margin math is healthy. One .xlsx, three tabs, worked four-change example.
Spreadsheet · for founders, eng & finance
Would a leaked key or a retry loop be stopped — or quietly bill you five figures overnight? Most platform budget limits are notify-only. Grade six runaway safeguards per account SAFEGUARDED / EXPOSED / RUNAWAY RISK via MIN-as-headline, with a dispositive no-hard-cutoff gate. Your setup, your marks, no benchmark.
Spreadsheet · for managers & ops
Puts a fully-loaded annual dollar figure on every recurring meeting, with a keep / trim / kill verdict and a value rating. Example: five meetings total $95,900/yr, $61,300 flagged to trim or kill.
Spreadsheet · for recruiters & owners
Puts a daily and total dollar figure on unfilled roles using the revenue-per-employee formula, then nets out the salary saved while vacant — an honest figure CFOs accept. Example: ~$1,615/day, $78,692 net across two roles.
Spreadsheet · for billable teams
For agencies, studios, consultancies — see real utilization, the sellable bench, and a sell / hire / turn-away verdict. Includes a New Work Check before you say yes. Example team has $205k/yr of unsold bench.
Fill the pipeline
Spreadsheet · for founders & marketers
CAC, payback period, LTV, and LTV:CAC per acquisition channel — invest / hold / cut verdict plus the spend in cut channels. Example: referral 38:1 / 0.6mo vs influencer 0.77:1, blended CAC $212.
Spreadsheet · for founders & marketers
Grade each lead source on qualified-lead rate, cost per qualified lead, and ROAS — SCALE / FIX / CUT — with a fit gate that won't let you scale cheap junk volume however good its ROAS. Example: a ROAS-4.0 source at 8% fit gets FIX, not SCALE; $3,000 to reallocate.
Spreadsheet · for anyone buying paid leads
Compute the most you can pay per lead before a source loses money — from your own client value and close rate — then read every paid source PROFITABLE / THIN / UNDERWATER against your line. A zero-close gate flags a cheap source that never closes; a 10-lead floor holds thin data. Example: a $14/lead source reads UNDERWATER at zero closes; $6,000/mo to reallocate.
Spreadsheet · for RevOps, marketing & sales
Score your MQL and SQL definitions and your marketing-to-sales handoff on weighted criteria — TIGHT / LEAKY / BROKEN — where the weaker definition caps the score and a vague-definition gate forces BROKEN on anything that isn't measurable. Example: an 87-scoring setup with a subjective SQL still reads BROKEN.
Spreadsheet · for sales & lead-buyers
Turns your speed-to-lead into a revenue number — the extra customers and revenue faster response would capture, monthly and annual. The gap comes from your own contact-rate inputs, not a baked-in multiplier. Example: $40k/mo gap, $480k/yr.
Sheets + any AI tool
Score cold-email variants on positive reply rate — not vanity replies — and use nine built-in AI prompt formulas to write the next test. Aimed at the 15–25% top-quartile target.
Spreadsheet · for B2B, marketers & agencies
When a buyer asks an AI which vendor is best and you don't come up, the sale happened without you — no bounce, no session, no signal. Run a fixed prompt battery across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Mode, and Claude and score PRESENT / PARTIAL / ABSENT per engine via a presence-gated MIN, with the weakest engine named to fix first. Your observations, no API.
Tidy the house
Spreadsheet · for ops & admins
Check every filename against a naming convention you define, get the corrected name for each file, and catch the rename that would overwrite another — CONFORMS / RENAME / COLLISION, with a collision gate that stops a clobbering rename. A malformed field shows as FIXME, never a bad value smuggled into a name.
Spreadsheet · for finance & ops
Join two lists that should agree on a match key and classify every row — RECONCILED / EXCEPTION / ORPHANED — with a tolerance that absorbs a one-cent rounding gap and a gate that won't call them reconciled while any row is unmatched or disagreeing. Bank vs ledger, invoices vs PO log, payroll vs timesheets.
Spreadsheet · for finance & bookkeeping
Screen a bank or card feed before it reaches the ledger. Auto-categorize by your own keyword rules, run four anomaly checks, and get per-row CLEAN / REVIEW / FLAG plus a batch POST READY / REVIEW ROWS / HOLD — where one uncategorized row, bad date, bad amount, or duplicate holds the whole batch. No AI; the worked sample is clean-rate 94 and still HOLD.
Spreadsheet · for ops & finance
Judge every row in one list against the rows above it — UNIQUE / REVIEW / DUPLICATE — from an exact-key (email) match plus near-duplicate name/phone signals, with a CLEAN / NEEDS REVIEW / HAS DUPLICATES batch verdict. The first occurrence stays the keeper; it flags the copies and never merges or deletes. No AI, nothing uploaded.
Spreadsheet · for meeting owners
Grade whether your meeting's action items actually got handed off — named owner, due date, acceptance, system of record, definition of done. An owner gate drops any unowned item ("the team" owns nothing), per item TRACKED / CHASE / DROPPED, rolled up to ALL TRACKED / GAPS / HANDOFF BROKEN where one dropped action breaks the meeting. Grades the process, not people.
One-time .xlsx · hiring verification
Go through a resume claim by claim: mark each claim's evidence and whether its source is reachable, and get VERIFIED / VERIFY FIRST / UNVERIFIABLE per claim — with a material-unreachable gate that holds the whole checklist on any core claim nobody can confirm. Scores the claim, not the candidate.
One-time .xlsx · honest support metrics
A deflection rate is easy to inflate — a bot that makes people give up "deflects" them on paper. Split each deflected bucket into genuine resolution vs hidden demand for REAL / SOFT / FALSE DEFLECTION and the real rate you can defend, with a gate that catches a bot hiding demand instead of resolving it.
One-time .xlsx · agent reliability
An 8-step agent at 85% per step succeeds end-to-end just 27% of the time. Reveals each workflow's true compounded success rate, catches quiet drift (observed vs. the chain math), and verdicts every agent STABLE / SHORTEN / CHECKPOINT with a fleet drift rate.
Govern the AI
Editable Word doc · for SMBs
A 20-section AI Acceptable Use Policy plus four appendices — approved-tools register, do/don't one-pager, employee acknowledgment, rollout checklist. Built to be reviewed by your counsel.
Word + Excel + offline builder
Generate a tailored AI policy by company size and industry, plus the operational layer — an Excel approved-tool register and data-handling matrix, an incident form, a 9-industry clause library, and an offline generator. NIST + ISO aligned.
Spreadsheet · for founders, ops & IT leads
Surface every AI tool your team actually uses (amnesty, no blame) and triage which to pull into governance first. Per-tool SANCTIONED / REVIEW / PULL INTO GOVERNANCE with a dispositive gate: regulated data on a personal account makes the whole org UNGOVERNED, however many tools are clean. Structural, not scored. Grades the tools, never people.
Spreadsheet · for founders, procurement & IT
Score an AI or SaaS vendor's security posture before you sign — SOC 2/ISO evidence, encryption, breach SLA, training stance, subprocessors, and exit. Six weighted controls return SOLID / PRESS FOR PROOF / RED FLAG, with a disqualifier gate that forces RED FLAG when a vendor trains on your data with no opt-out or offers no deletion and exit path — even at 80/100. Grades the posture you assemble, never people.
Spreadsheet · for vendor evaluation
A vendor says it's ‘ISO 42001 certified.’ Scrutinize whether that's an accredited certificate covering the AI system you're buying — or a self-made slide. Six 0/1/2 evidence controls, a weakest-link verdict (ACCEPTED / VERIFY FIRST / REJECTED), and a dispositive gate that rejects evidence you can confirm on neither axis (accreditation and scope both unconfirmed). The sample's Beacon scores a 1.67 mean and still reads REJECTED; confirm scope and it rises to VERIFY FIRST. One .xlsx, three tabs, worked six-vendor example. Grades the evidence, never people; ISO does not certify — accredited bodies do.
Spreadsheet · for founders, ops & platform teams
Grade whether you can actually allow, throttle, or block the AI crawlers and scrapers hitting your site. Six weighted controls for a 0-100 score and READY / GAPS / EXPOSED, with an enforceability gate that reads EXPOSED when you can't enforce on non-compliant traffic and can't verify a real bot from a spoofed one. Your marks, no baked-in benchmark.
Spreadsheet · for finance & ops
AI image generators now make visually perfect fake receipts priced ~$100 to slip under your auto-approval line — eyeballing is a dead control. Score your expense programs on six controls for CONTROLLED / SOFT SPOTS / EXPOSED, with a worsen-only two-trigger gate (no source-of-truth cross-check OR no sub-threshold monitoring → EXPOSED) that fires even at 76/100. A control self-assessment, not a fraud audit; grades the controls, never employees.
Publish & grow
Spreadsheet · for solo creators
One spreadsheet — pillars, calendar, a repurposing matrix that turns one piece into a week of platform-native posts, and 13 AI prompt blocks with an anti-slop Ship Check.
Spreadsheet · for short-form creators
Score a short-form hook before you post — a weighted rubric returning Ship / Tighten / Rework with an anti-clickbait cap — then log 3-second retention vs your own baseline, with no winner crowned under 1,000 views. The cheap front door to the YouTube Packaging & Retention Engine.
Spreadsheet · for Instagram creators
Score an Instagram post's share-worthiness before you post — six weighted criteria returning SEND-WORTHY / WEAK SIGNAL / WON'T TRAVEL with a hard originality gate that floors watermarked reposts — then track sends & saves per reach vs your own baseline, with an honest thin-sample floor under 1,000 reach. Companion to the Short-Form Hook & Retention Lab.
Spreadsheet · for Instagram creators
Grade your link-in-bio — the router between your profile and your offer — on six weighted levers (GO LIVE / TIGHTEN / REWORK) with a focus gate that caps any page lacking a single primary action: a router that doesn't route can't read GO LIVE however high the total. Names the one lever to fix first. The funnel connector in the Instagram line.
Spreadsheet · for YouTube creators
Ranks your existing videos by impressions × CTR-gap × retention to find the few worth re-titling or re-thumbnailing — Refresh / Leave / Retire against your own medians, with a conservative modeled estimate of impressions recovered. The cheap front door to the YouTube Packaging & Retention Engine.

What a Quick Kit is
What it isn't
Common Questions
A single-problem, business-specific kit you can put to work in an afternoon. Most are a spreadsheet with formulas, a chart, and built-in prompts; some are an editable policy doc or template pack. Each one solves one tightly-scoped problem (cost-per-task, cold-email scoring, AI policy) and is priced under most Systems because it does less — by design.
Systems are full operator infrastructure: a Skills Pack, an installable Claude skill, or a Pattern B deliverable hub with multiple tabs and integrations. Quick Kits are one tool, one outcome, one file — closer to a Notion template or a focused workbook than to operator infra. If you'd say 'I just need a thing that does X by Friday,' it's a Quick Kit.
Some use AI directly (the Cold Email Optimizer ships with nine prompt formulas you copy into Claude or ChatGPT). Others help you make better AI decisions without using AI to do it (the Cost-Per-Task Calculator is pure spreadsheet math; the AI Usage Policy Kit is a Word doc you customize and have counsel review). The category isn't 'AI did it' — it's 'one specific business problem, solved fast.'
No installs. Sheets work in Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel; the policy kit is a .docx that opens in Word, Google Docs, or Apple Pages. Every kit comes pre-loaded with example inputs so it works the moment you open it.
Yes — every Quick Kit carries a 30-day money-back guarantee. If a kit doesn't help you make the decision or hit the metric it's built for, request a refund within 30 days of purchase.
Yes. The category is built to expand — calculators, A/B scoring sheets, editable policy templates, focused prompt-and-template packs. Each one is a single-outcome product priced at a fraction of a System. Watch this hub for new additions.
Want a kit for a problem we don't have yet?
Quick Kits are picked from the single-problem fixes operators ask for most. If your “I just need a thing that does X by Friday” isn't on the shelf yet, send the brief.
