What an agentic brand audit actually covers.

Two to three weeks, no retainer: mapping your highest-cost work, scoring it for agentification, and handing you the build plan — whether or not you build with us.

RDLB Agentic insight header — the agentic brand audit: mapping a company's highest-cost work and scoring it for agentification.

The front door to everything we do is an audit, because deploying agents against the wrong work is the fastest way to automate noise.

Week one: the cost map.

We sit with how the work actually happens — not the org chart, the workflow. Where does brand work queue? What does the founder still personally touch and why? Which tasks consume senior judgment that a system could pre-process? The output is a ranked map of your highest-cost work, costed in hours and bottleneck risk.

Week two: the agentification score.

Not everything should be a system. Work scores high when it is recurring, signal-driven, and judgment-checkable — competitive intelligence, content production, briefing, reporting. It scores low when it is once-ever or taste-defining. We score every item on the map and design the agent roles for the top of the list, drawing on the twelve operators we deploy most.

What you walk away with.

A build plan: which roles, in what order, wired to which of your tools, with the governance gates marked. The plan is yours either way — no retainer to find out, and nothing in it locks you to us. Most clients use it to start the 90-day build; some take it in-house. Both outcomes are fine. An audit that only works as a sales document is not an audit.

What we need from you.

Two or three working sessions, access to the work (not the systems — see our posture on that), and honesty about where the bottlenecks live. Founders usually know. The audit turns the knowing into a plan.
