Where does your work stand?

Rate twenty statements honestly. We score the five variables — V, D, P, HX, AI — show you the plumbing still on your plate, and point you at the right door. Nothing is stored; your result lives in this browser.

Rate each from 0 (never / strongly disagree) to 5 (always / strongly agree).

VVisionIntent set before output.
Before I start a task, I'm clear on the verdict it's aiming for — not just the output.
My team can state, in a sentence, what our work is actually for.
We decide what 'good' looks like before we make it.
When priorities collide, we have a clear way to choose.
DDataThe fuel your work runs on.
The data my work needs is easy to find and easy to use.
Our tools and agents can reach the data they need to act.
We trust the data we make decisions on.
When I need a fact to decide, I can get it in minutes, not days.
PProcessRoutine handed to machines.
The repetitive parts of my week are handled by automation or AI, not by me.
We've moved recurring tasks off people and onto machines.
I spend little time on copy-paste, formatting, and chasing.
When a process repeats, our default is to make a machine run it.
HXHuman ExperienceThe human–machine interface.
The tools we use are genuinely usable, not just deployed.
A new colleague can pick up our workflows without a manual.
Where human meets machine, the experience is actually good.
Our AI fits how people work, not the other way round.
AIAIThe multiplier on the work.
AI multiplies what I can do — it doesn't just speed up what I already did.
We direct AI agents, not just prompt a chatbot now and then.
AI is woven into how the work runs, not kept as a side experiment.
We get compounding returns from AI, month over month.

02 / The aggregate

One day, this becomes a report.

As cohorts run the Index, the anonymous aggregate becomes an annual read on where the workforce actually stands — measured, not surveyed-into-a-headline. The first edition follows the first cohort.
