A grounded AI status check
AI Strategy Sonar
Where you or your team really stand with AI – measured, not guessed.
Situational and knowledge-based questions reveal your AI maturity across eight dimensions in around 15 minutes. You receive a clear assessment, your most important development levers and a prioritised recommendation for your next sensible step.
- Around 15 minutes
- 8 dimensions
- 5 maturity levels
- 2 PDF reports included
More than a self-assessment
The AI Strategy Sonar combines questions about how you work with concrete knowledge and decision situations. Your answers are evaluated by fixed rules across eight dimensions and brought together into a transparent maturity profile.
- Situational and knowledge-based questions in around 15 minutes
- Evaluation across eight separate dimensions
- Prioritised development levers instead of a mere overall score
The evaluation runs server-side according to fixed rules. Answer options and the internal scoring logic are not exposed in the browser.
This is what your result looks like
You receive not just a level, but your personal maturity profile.
The evaluation shows where your AI practice already holds up, which areas to develop next and which learning step fits your profile.

Eight dimensions
What the Sonar measures
AI competence shows in more than prompting. Eight dimensions make visible where your way of working already holds up and where the next step makes the biggest difference.
02
Tool competence
How deliberately you select and combine the right AI tools.
03
Prompt competence
How clearly you formulate goals, context, requirements and output format.
04
Workflow thinking
How structured you work with AI across several transparent steps.
05
Swarm & agent thinking
How confidently you distribute tasks across roles, tools and specialised AI helpers.
06
Quality assurance
How consistently you check, judge and improve AI results.
07
Data protection & security
How responsibly you handle sensitive and confidential data.
08
Automation & process maturity
How systematically you standardise and automate recurring tasks.
Five maturity levels
Where you stand today
From the eight dimensions your personal maturity profile emerges – from first attempts to strategically embedded AI practice.
- 1
AI Explorer
First contact with AI, individual and still unsystematic attempts.
- 2
AI Practitioner
AI is already used regularly, but still without a fixed method.
- 3
AI Shaper
Tasks gain structure, work happens in rounds and is checked.
- 4
AI Orchestrator
Thinking in roles, tools and steps rather than a single chat window.
- 5
AI Strategist
AI is strategically connected to work, leadership and processes.
The highest level is not automatically the most important next step. What matters is which dimensions hold your biggest development levers.
