Questions
Questions about the tools
Plain answers on how the tools work and what they cost. For anything specific to your organisation, speak to an adviser.
Are these tools really free?
Yes. There is no charge, no trial, no account and no email gate. The tools exist because they answer questions our clients ask in every first conversation, and because some visitors will want the assessment or advisory work each tool points to. That work is priced openly on the page.
How accurate are the results?
As accurate as a structured self assessment can be. The calculators use published benchmarks and our published prices, state every assumption, and report ranges rather than a single false figure. The scorecards are honest about their limit: an independent review usually lands about one level below the self view. Treat every result as strong planning guidance rather than a verified position.
Do you store what we enter?
No. Every tool runs in your browser. Your figures and answers are never sent to us, stored or tracked, which is also why you can use real numbers safely.
Can we link to or share these tools?
Please do. Link directly to any tool page, share the copied results internally, or reference the methods with attribution. The methods and benchmarks are published precisely so they can be cited and checked.
Who built these tools?
The Intelance advisory team: the same IASME licensed assessors and enterprise architects who deliver the certifications, assessments and reviews the tools point to. The logic reflects how we scope and price engagements.
Will there be more tools?
Yes, as the questions our clients ask justify them. AI governance readiness and ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 readiness are the most likely next additions. If there is a tool you need that does not exist yet, tell us and we will consider building it.
Cannot find the tool you need?
Tell us the question you are trying to answer. If a tool cannot answer it, thirty minutes with the right adviser usually can, and you will get an honest view either way.
