Tools

Things we built that you can use for free

We build tools to answer questions we kept being asked. They are useful on their own, and none of them need a sales conversation first.

MACH & AI Readiness Assessment
Score your composable maturity and AI readiness against 600 enterprise leaders from the MACH Alliance Enterprise Technology Report.
Why it exists. Every conversation started with someone asking whether they were behind. Nobody could answer it, because the only benchmarks available were vendor marketing. This scores you against real research.
About 10 minutes, 18 questions. You get a score, a quadrant and specific recommendations rather than a lead-capture wall.
Best for: Enterprise teams, Anyone mid-replatform

- Result before email
- PDF report
- ~5 min
EU AI Act Risk Check
Find which EU AI Act risk tier your systems fall into, what the real deadlines are, and whether you are a provider or a deployer.
Why it exists. Most coverage of the AI Act either sells consulting or explains the whole regulation. Neither answers the only question a busy executive has, which is whether any of it applies to them and by when.
Ten questions, about five minutes. Your result appears before any email is asked for. Give an address and the full report arrives as a PDF.
Best for: Compliance and legal, Anyone shipping AI into the EU

Markwright
A publishing platform for verified human experts, built so that what you write is structured for AI systems to cite.
Why it exists. Search stopped sending traffic and answer engines started keeping it. Publishing somewhere an assistant can read, attribute and quote is now a different job from ranking, and nothing was built for it.
Five posts a month free. Written for the shift from search traffic to being quoted by an answer engine.
Best for: Founders, Consultants, Anyone publishing expertise

CrawlIndex
An open index of how the top 3,648 domains on the web actually treat AI agents and crawlers, recrawled nightly.
Why it exists. Everyone has an opinion about whether to block AI crawlers and nobody had the numbers. This measures what the most-visited sites on the internet actually do, every night, and publishes the method.
Look up any domain, or take the whole dataset. Useful if you are deciding what your own robots policy should be.
Best for: B2B marketing, SEO and AEO teams, Anyone writing a robots policy

PrivacyPixels
Strip EXIF and GPS metadata out of photos in bulk, and generate stock-photo keywords with exportable CSVs.
Why it exists. Photographs carry the location they were taken at, and most people posting them have no idea. The bulk tools that fix it were either desktop software or wanted an account before they would touch a file.
Metadata stripping is free and needs no account. Keyword generation runs on credits after the first 15.
Best for: Photographers, Anyone posting photos, Stock sellers
