# AIReady — Your data isn't broken. Your operating model is.

> The landing page for the book *Your data isn't broken. Your operating model is.* by
> Behrang Karimi and Adam Ayres, and home of the free AI-Readiness Scorecard — a
> 7-question diagnostic that scores how prepared an enterprise operating model is for AI.

The book's core argument: AI at scale does not break your data or expose a gap in your
software stack — it exposes the **operating model** underneath (definitions, ownership,
how decisions get made) and then scales whatever it finds. Feed it clarity and it
compounds your advantage; feed it confusion and it scales the confusion at machine speed.
The remedy is a leadership method in three ordered moves: **Assess → Align → Accelerate**.

## Optional

- The scorecard is a mirror, not a maturity model: the goal is an accurate score, not a high one. Run it with a leadership team — the variance between answers is often more revealing than the average.
- The site is a single static page; there is no sign-up, no email gate, and no backend.
