What the numbers mean
Every completed readiness assessment adds one anonymous row: company size band, whether AI is built or used, and the readiness score per framework. The bars show the median and the middle half of scores. A score is self-reported maturity across the 15 to 20 control questions, so it measures how companies describe themselves, not audit outcomes; in our experience it tracks the first readiness review within about ten points.
- Below the 25th percentile for your size: expect a readiness project of two quarters or more before a Type I or Stage 1.
- Around the median: policies exist and most controls run; evidence discipline is usually the gap.
- Above the 75th percentile: book the auditor; the remaining work is organizing what you already do.
Why no benchmark for my size yet?
Each group needs at least ten assessments before it is shown, and the page as a whole needs twenty. Numbers from fewer would be noise with a decimal point.
Is my assessment in here?
Only if you completed it, as a size band and scores, with no answers, email or company name. Nothing is logged for partial runs.
