Common questions answered.

How does an engagement begin?

It depends on the door. Organizations engage through an advisory partner. Sellers and analysts subscribe to Signal or take a Research Console seat. Advisory firms start Solo or Practice self-serve, or talk to us for Enterprise. AI Strategic Blueprint is delivered through a partner (including High Impact Group). Published options are on the engagements page.

Does the end client need to create an account?

For partner-delivered work, usually no. Delivery is up to the partner firm (secure link, email or in person). Organizations engage through a partner firm, which runs the scans and holds the account. Partner firms use accounts to run and manage scans for their clients.

What types of organizations does this work for?

Any organization with a public website: companies, small businesses, government agencies and not-for-profits. The analysis adapts to sector, entity type and jurisdiction.

What does it cost?

Signal is free. Signal Pro is US$49 a month billed annually. The Research Console is US$249 per seat per month billed annually. The AI Disruption Snapshot, AI Playbook and Portfolio Assessment are delivered through an advisory partner and scoped with you. Partner Solo is US$749 a month and Practice US$2,499 a month, billed annually. Monthly billing is available for Signal Pro and the Console at a higher monthly rate. AI Strategic Blueprint and Enterprise are scoped with you. Prices show in your local currency (AUD for Australia, USD for the United States) on the engagements page, which is the source of truth.

What is AI Playbook?

AI Playbook builds directly on the Snapshot. The AI Strategy Advisor helps define strategic objectives, then the platform generates a focused strategy with specific actions across the four fronts, Offensive, Conversion, Utilization and Defensive, and a synthesis of the most important moves for the quarter ahead.

What is the difference between Playbook and AI Strategic Blueprint?

Playbook produces a focused strategy from the Snapshot findings: strategic moves for the opportunities and threats that matter most. The AI Strategic Blueprint is the full engagement: a structured workshop with four AI Advisors, three further deliverables (AI Strategy Canvas, AI Transformation Roadmap and AI Executive Presentation) built on your AI Disruption Analysis, review and sign-off by the delivering partner, a cover letter, a walkthrough and strategy tools.

Can an engagement step up from Playbook to Blueprint?

Yes. An organization with a Snapshot or Playbook can move to AI Strategic Blueprint through a partner (including High Impact Group). Get in touch to be introduced, or start from the partner program if you deliver for clients.

How is pricing quoted?

In local currency: AUD (excluding GST) for AU engagements, USD for US engagements. Most tiers show the exact price at checkout on the engagements page; the AI Strategic Blueprint and Enterprise partner tier are scoped and confirmed directly.

Is there expert review?

On AI Strategic Blueprint, yes. The three further deliverables (AI Strategy Canvas, AI Transformation Roadmap and AI Executive Presentation) are reviewed and signed off by the delivering partner before release. Self-serve Practice partners self-review after onboarding; when High Impact Group delivers, HIG reviews. The AI Disruption Snapshot and the AI Disruption Analysis are both generated automatically and are not held for partner sign-off. Playbook is self-serve and not held for partner sign-off either.

Can we get a customized engagement?

Yes, through a partner firm. The AI Strategic Blueprint is scoped to your organization and includes a strategy workshop and a 90-minute walkthrough. Get in touch and we will introduce you to a partner firm, which can be High Impact Group.

What is an AI strategy, and why does it matter?

An AI strategy answers five questions an AI activity list cannot: where the organization is exposed to disruption, whether its defensibility survives AI, what peers are actually doing, which work AI can replace and what to prioritize first. For a full explanation, see the AI strategy overview.

What does the disruption score actually mean?

The score (0-100) measures how much AI is likely to reshape an organization's business model, not how advanced AI adoption is. A higher score means AI bears more heavily on the business, creating both threats and opportunities. The score is calculated across eight weighted dimensions covering workforce replaceability, competitive displacement risk, digital exposure, market velocity, data stakes, switching costs, regulatory protection and brand strength. See the full explanation of the AI Disruption Score.

How are peers identified?

Through live web search and a peer research pipeline. Mireto identifies organizations similar in size, industry and business model, then extracts signals of their AI adoption from current news, job postings and web content. Named organizations appear in the assessment, not generic "market players."

What do the confidence tags mean?

Every finding carries one of three tags: Evidenced (verified from public sources such as financial filings, websites or business registration records), Inferred (logically derived from available evidence) or Hypothesis (a reasoned assessment where direct evidence is unavailable). This transparency makes clear what is verified and what needs validation.

How are the scores calculated?

An AI model rates each of the eight dimensions against a written rubric with hard boundaries, and the AI Disruption Score is then a fixed weighted sum of those ratings. A rating above a given threshold requires specific evidence. For example, a workforce replaceability rating of 7 or more requires that more than half of the organization's roles are knowledge work AI can credibly perform. These boundaries prevent score inflation and ensure different organizations receive meaningfully different scores.

Can documents be uploaded to sharpen the analysis?

Yes. A partner firm can add financial reports, existing strategies, org charts or customer data to a client's file, and they feed that client's Snapshots and strategy work. Portfolio Assessment buyers also upload their own initiative documents directly. Either way, the analysis uses real numbers rather than estimates. Without documents, the assessment runs on the organization's public record. Documents a partner keeps in a client's file follow that firm's own retention setting. Text extracted from a one-off scan upload is cleared on a 90-day cycle.

Can results be shared with a team or board?

Yes. Every scan generates a shareable link. Recipients view results without signing up or creating an account. Share links last 30 days. AI Strategic Blueprint engagements include the Strategy Canvas, Transformation Roadmap and Executive Presentation, plus the cover letter, in the share view.

Does it work for government agencies?

Yes. Government entities are detected automatically and trigger a dedicated analysis pipeline. The language adapts to public sector context (citizens, appropriations, peer agencies), the scoring rubric applies government-specific carve-outs to reflect public-sector constraints, and recommendations are grounded in relevant government AI policy frameworks for the jurisdiction.

What about universities and not-for-profits?

Both are supported. The correct entity type is selected at the start of the scan and the analysis language adapts accordingly: enrollment and research funding for universities; mission impact and volunteer capacity for not-for-profits.

Where is data stored and processed?

Scan data is stored in the jurisdiction of the organization being assessed: Australia (AWS Sydney, ap-southeast-2) for Australian organizations, or a dedicated United States region for US organizations. This is determined automatically from the organization's country, not a manual request. Application compute runs from the United States for every customer, so Australian data is stored in Australia and processed by our application servers in the United States.

Is data used to train AI models?

No. Data sent to Anthropic via the Claude API is processed to produce the assessment and is not used to train Anthropic's models, per their published commercial terms.

How long is scan data kept?

Scan results - your scores, narrative and deliverables - are retained for the life of your access, and kept after access ends. Text extracted from a one-off scan upload is cleared on a 90-day cycle. Documents a partner keeps in a client's file follow that firm's retention setting. Deletion on request is immediate and permanent.

Is the platform compliant with privacy legislation?

Mireto is operated by High Impact Group Pty Ltd (ABN 40 682 923 128) in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Spam Act 2003. Full details are on the security page.

Can partners use Mireto for client work?

Yes. The partner channel is built specifically for firms that deliver strategy, advisory or consulting services to their own clients, or run the same work on their own firm. Every document names the partner firm, and on Practice and Enterprise the firm can switch on full white-label. See the partner platform page for full details.

What do clients see?

The partner firm's name on every document. On Solo, documents also carry Mireto's mark and a line saying they were prepared using Mireto. On Practice and Enterprise, the firm can switch on full white-label so only its own brand appears. Share links open in the partner firm's name.

How quickly can a partner firm be onboarded?

Solo and Practice can start self-serve from partner signup. Snapshot, Playbook and Portfolio Assessment work immediately after payment. On the Practice plan, the AI Strategic Blueprint becomes available after a one-time delivery-standards onboarding walkthrough; the Blueprint is not available on Solo. Enterprise is sales-assisted. Branding (logo, colors) and pilot client selection are usually same-day once the firm is active.

How is Mireto different from asking ChatGPT?

ChatGPT gives generic answers from training data with no knowledge of a specific organization. Mireto names actual peers, scores specific exposure, references the industry by sector and produces deliverables a board can act on. Six specialist AI Advisors. Calibrated scoring with hard boundaries. Confidence tags on every claim. AI Strategic Blueprint is reviewed and signed off by the delivering partner before release.

Is Mireto a replacement for consulting?

No. Mireto executes the same proven methodologies consulting firms use (stakeholder interviews, strategic frameworks, competitive analysis, structured deliverables), on a faster cadence. A Big 4 strategy engagement at comparable scope runs for months and is quoted per engagement. Organizations can self-serve a Snapshot or Playbook; the Blueprint and custom work run through a partner. For bespoke implementation support or change management, a human consulting relationship remains valuable.
