AI Readiness Assessment Skill
You bought the 30-criteria Scoring Model. Now someone has to actually run the interview, tally it, and turn it into something an executive will look at twice.
AI Readiness Assessment Skill is a free companion skill for Viksya's paid AI Transformation Readiness Scoring Model. It conducts the 30-criteria scoring interview conversationally, one question at a time with an evidence prompt, then generates three deliverables from a single session: a branded Excel executive dashboard, a self-contained embeddable HTML dashboard, and a completed copy of your own workbook with its formulas intact.
Enter your name and email for instant access. Requires your purchased AI Transformation Readiness Scoring Model workbook — works in Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini.

AI Readiness Assessment Skill is a free agent skill published by Viksya as a companion to the paid AI Transformation Readiness Scoring Model (an Excel workbook). It verifies your purchased workbook, conducts the 30-criteria, 6-dimension scoring interview conversationally with an evidence prompt on every question, then generates a branded Excel executive dashboard, a self-contained embeddable HTML dashboard, and a completed copy of your own workbook with its formulas intact. It ships with none of the workbook's proprietary scoring logic and is free to use and share with attribution.
Before you start: this skill requires your purchased AI Transformation Readiness Scoring Model workbook (.xlsx) — it verifies the file at the start of every session and will not run without it. Don’t have it yet? Get the Scoring Model first →
A 90-second walkthrough, scored live in an offsite.
Two team members score a criterion out loud and the skill captures both the number and the reasoning behind it — exactly how a real session runs.
Run it live in the room — the skill asks one criterion at a time, so a team scores together instead of filling in a spreadsheet afterward.
Disagreement is useful data, not a blocker — score it, capture both reasons as evidence notes, and move on.
The workbook gives you the instrument. It doesn’t run itself.
Owning the Scoring Model answers what to measure. Turning thirty scored criteria into something you'd actually show an executive is a separate piece of work.
The skill's job: run the interview properly — one criterion at a time, evidence captured every time — and turn the result into deliverables you can hand to a sponsor without extra formatting work.
One session. Six steps. Three deliverables.
All assessment content — dimensions, criteria, evidence prompts, weights, scoring legend — is read from your purchased workbook at runtime. The skill package itself contains none of it.
The SessionEvidence, captured every time — not optional. Every question ends with an explicit invitation for a short evidence note, and the skill tracks the (score, note) pair for all 30 criteria as it goes, so the Evidence/Notes column in both dashboards is never silently blank.
- Purchase Verification Gate
- The non-negotiable first step of every session: the skill checks your attached workbook against the Scoring Model before running any assessment work, and points non-owners to the checkout page instead of proceeding.
- Session Record
- The structured record of metadata, weights, and (score, evidence) pairs for all 30 criteria, built during the interview and used to generate all three deliverables in one pass.
One skill file, one generator script, full documentation.
Proprietary content stays out of the repository by design — criteria, weights, and scoring logic live only in your purchased workbook and are read at runtime.
What the skill adds on top of the workbook.
The Scoring Model is the instrument. This skill is the free, optional way to run it without manual spreadsheet work.
| Instrument | What It Gives You | Format |
|---|---|---|
| AI Transformation Readiness Scoring Model | The 30 criteria, evidence prompts, and weighted scoring engine itself | Excel workbook · $65 |
| AI Readiness Assessment Skill (this skill) | A guided interview over your workbook, plus three generated deliverables in one session | Free agent skill |
| Running it by hand | Typing scores directly into the workbook, no interview structure, no generated dashboards | Your own time |
For anyone who already owns the workbook.
Run your own organisation's readiness baseline without manually building a dashboard afterward.
Run the same instrument across several clients with a consistent, presentable output each time.
Prepare an executive-ready readiness profile to support a transformation business case.
Re-run the interview quarterly or after a major milestone to track readiness progression over time.

What this skill is not.
What you need to run it.
Questions before your first session.
Do I need to buy the Scoring Model first?
Yes. The skill verifies your purchased AI Transformation Readiness Scoring Model workbook at the start of every session and will not run the assessment without it. If you don't own it yet, the skill points you straight to the checkout page.
What does the skill actually generate?
Three deliverables from one session: a branded Excel executive dashboard (values only), a self-contained embeddable HTML dashboard with dimension drill-downs, and a completed copy of your own Scoring Model workbook with metadata, weights, scores, and evidence notes filled in — its built-in formulas recalculate when you open it.
Which AI platforms does it work on?
Claude, ChatGPT/Codex, Gemini, or any assistant that can read an attached file and follow skill instructions. The Excel outputs need a platform that can run Python 3 with openpyxl; without code execution the skill still runs the interview and produces the HTML dashboard.
Does the skill expose the workbook's formulas or scoring logic?
No. The skill package contains none of the Scoring Model's criteria, weights, formulas, or scoring logic — it reads all of that from your purchased workbook at runtime and is instructed never to show, quote, or explain the calculation mechanics.
Does it collect or store confidential company data?
No. The skill doesn't fetch information about your organisation on its own and is instructed not to request PII, PHI, or confidential data. If you volunteer confidential specifics in an evidence note, it flags this, advises against sharing it, and leaves it out of the outputs unless you insist.
Why do you ask for my name and email before the download?

The file is delivered as a free ($0) product through the Viksya store; your details aren't required to use the skill once you have it, and it remains free to share onward with the attribution notice intact.
