Where most teams start
The audit is the first of three ways to work with Taut, and it's where most teams start. It costs nothing and takes about 90 seconds. It shows you where your revenue operations break before you spend a dollar on fixing them. If you want help afterwards, there's the Cohort and the Executive engagement. All three are on our services page.
What you get
Here's the whole deliverable in one sentence: a score out of 100, your top three to five findings, and one of them written out as a complete fix, free, whether or not you reply, within a business day.
A score out of 100
One number from 0 to 100 on how your revenue operations hold up today, based on your answers and your site.
Your read shows that score on a gauge, so you can see at a glance where you stand.
Your top three to five findings
The places where leads, deals or customers slip through, ranked so you know what to fix first. Not twenty items. Three to five.
One finding written out as a complete fix you can apply this week
Most audits hand you a list or a roadmap. We pick one finding and write out the whole fix, so you can apply it this week. It's yours whether or not you reply.
How it works (about 90 seconds)
Your work email and two taps
Your role and your team size. We take your company from your email domain, so you don't retype what we can already see.
Four questions, mostly taps, one in your own words
One question at a time. They fit your role and size. One asks for a single sentence about what actually happens where things stall.
Your read arrives within a business day
We read your business, sector and geography from your answers and your site. Then one of our operators writes your read by hand, and it goes to your inbox within a business day. A person writes every read.
No call, no CRM access, and it works with whatever CRM you already use.
Who it's for
Founder-led companies doing $1M–$5M a year with about 5–50 people. It's built for teams where at least one of these sounds familiar:
- You're the only one who closes. Every deal waits on your calendar.
- Deals stall. The pipeline looks full and the quarter still comes up short. Here's what usually causes that.
- Work gets dropped between sales, delivery and customer success, and customers churn. What was promised in the sale doesn't make it to the people doing the work.
- You've been burned by an agency or a tool. You paid, the work moved to you, and the number didn't move.
What the audit looks at
The four questions cover the four things that decide where to start.
The number you most want to move this quarter
You pick one. The read is built around it, not around a generic checklist.
Where it stalls
Not enough leads. Leads that don't become meetings. Deals that stall or go quiet. Customers who leave or don't grow. Data and handoffs that break between tools. You tap the closest and tell us in one sentence what happens there. If it's stalled deals, this diagnosis walks through the usual causes.
How customers buy from you
Online sign-up, a sales call that closes within a month, a one-to-six-month sales process, partners or resellers, or a mix. The right fix depends on which one it is.
What you've already tried
A new tool, an agency or contractor, a new hire, rebuilding it yourselves, or nothing yet. Knowing this keeps the read from sending you back to something that already failed.
What happens after you send it
What lands in your inbox, and when
Your read, within a business day: your score out of 100, your top three to five findings, and the one complete fix.

If you want more
Most teams start here, and some stop here: they apply the fix and get on with it. If you'd rather build the system yourself with a group of other founders, there's the Cohort: six weeks, two live sessions a week, starting mid-January 2027. If you'd rather have operators build it, run it with you for a while and then hand it over, there's the Executive engagement.
Why it's free
It's how we start. Most growth problems are operations problems, and you can't fix one until you can see where it is. The audit shows you. The fix we write out is yours either way. There's no catch and no inflated "value" figure.
How we know it works: our own shop
We run our own shop on the systems we build. Every morning our inbox, pipeline, calendar and finance collapse into one ranked list of the day's actions, and the next day we grade what actually got done. None of that is a client result. It's how we know a system holds up before we put it in your business.
