Measure AI Readiness – with Security and Responsibility.

KAAS = AI Affinity & Adoption Scale

KAAS shows you where your team stands today – before you invest in AI. We measure six core areas (Core Readiness), plus how responsibly (RUI) and risk-aware (RSX) your teams work with AI. The traffic light clearly shows: Ready • Training needed • Not ready yet.

NEW: License-to-Scale System

The Traffic Light Decides: Scale or Stop?

Clear decision basis through three criteria: Core Readiness ≥ 70% • RUI ≥ 70% • RSX ≥ 50%

License to Scale - Green Light for AI Projects

License to Scale

All three criteria met

Your team is ready for AI scaling:

  • Core Readiness ≥ 70% (2.8/4)
  • Responsible Use ≥ 70% (2.8/4)
  • Risk Awareness ≥ 50% (2.0/4)
Stop & Fix - Red Light for AI Projects

Stop & Fix

Two or more criteria missed

Further preparation needed for:

  • Core Readiness < 70%
  • Responsible Use < 70%
  • Risk Awareness < 50%

The yellow traffic light (Pilot with conditions) appears when exactly one criterion is missed.

Why KAAS? From Assumption to Certainty.

~70% of AI projects fail not because of technology, but due to acceptance, skills and governance. KAAS delivers the objective as-is analysis of your teams – before you invest.

X-axis: Adoption (low → high)

Y-axis: Responsible Use (RUI, low → high) – RSX acts as a security filter in the traffic light, but is not plotted.

  • Where to start?
    Identify pilot areas with high success probability.
  • Who leads?
    Make AI champions visible as multipliers.
  • How to scale?
    Prioritize with RUI (quality of use) – approval via traffic light with Core & RSX.
Cautious Skeptics
low adoption • high RUI
Enabled Users
high adoption • high RUI
Uninvolved
low adoption • low RUI
Risky Users
high adoption • low RUI
Matrix: Adoption × RUI – four typical user profiles for prioritization. The approval for scaling is done separately via the traffic light (Core + RUI, RSX as filter).

Decision Matrix (Team/Department)

X-axis: Adoption (low → high)
Y-axis: Responsible Use (RUI, low → high)

  • Scale (prioritized) – high adoption • high RUI – Approval via traffic light (Core + RUI, RSX as filter).
  • Pilot & increase adoption – low adoption • high RUI
  • Don't scale – increase RUI first – high adoption • low RUI
  • Don't invest – low adoption • low RUI
Note: Traffic light "Green" in report at Core ≥ 70% & RUI ≥ 70% & RSX ≥ 50%.
Cautious Skeptics scale carefully 7
Enabled Users scale 12
Low Readiness don't invest 4
Risky Users don't scale 5

Distribution of team members by Adoption × RUI (heatmap per quadrant). Order = Prioritization; final approval via traffic light (Core + RUI, RSX as filter).

What You Get

28 Questions • 10 Minutes

In just a few minutes, you get a clear position assessment across six core fields (Core), plus RUI and RSX – mobile-friendly, fast, and optionally anonymous.

RUI – Responsible Use

Measures the quality of AI use: goal focus, care under time pressure, cross-checking with independent sources, and transparency about interests.

Core Readiness

The foundation from 6 core fields: Attitude & Interest, Basic Knowledge & Understanding, Working Methods & Prompting, Tool Range & Model Selection, Daily Integration, Peer Support & Initiative.

RSX Overlay – Risk Awareness

Our security filter: RSX shows whether teams recognize risks, understand model limitations, critically review results, and consider regulations – the basis for responsible scaling.

Core Readiness – the Performance Foundation

Core bundles the 28 core items in seven fields – it shows how fit teams are today, including governance topics.

  • Attitude & Interest: Openness, motivation, curiosity.
  • Basic Knowledge & Understanding: AI vs. software, error causes, application examples.
  • Working Methods & Prompting: Goal clarity, effective prompts, approach logic.
  • Tool Range & Model Selection: Appropriate model per task, variety instead of one-tool.
  • Daily Integration: Use with new tasks, regular deployment.
  • Peer Support & Initiative: Enable others, follow trends.

Core Readiness is a mandatory criterion in the traffic light.

KAAS Radar Chart of 6 Core Dimensions

RSX Overlay – Risk Awareness

Briefly explained: RSX shows whether teams use AI with a watchful eye: recognize risks, understand limitations, critically review results, and consider regulations. RSX is the security filter for the License to Scale: Core and RUI must be high – RSX ensures no one scales "blindly".

Details
  • Attitude to Risks & Rules: Take risks seriously, don't ignore rules.
  • Pace Sensitivity: Recognize urgency – quality over speed.
  • Critical View: Don't accept AI results unchecked.
  • Error Understanding: Know why AI can err.

RSX is an overlay to Core & RUI: It doesn't replace policies, but shows if a minimum standard of care exists. For the License to Scale: Core ≥ 70%, RUI ≥ 70%, RSX ≥ 50%.

What Do the Values Mean? License to Scale

Approval Criterion: Scaling is responsible when Core Readiness and Responsible Use (RUI) are high and RSX reaches at least a baseline value. Core & RUI carry the weight – RSX acts as a minimum filter.

  • Green: Core ≥ 70% & RUI ≥ 70% & RSX ≥ 50% – Scale.
  • Yellow: exactly one boundary missed – Pilot with conditions.
  • Red: two or more boundaries missed – Stop & Fix (Policies, Logging, Reviews).
Team A Green

Scale 1–4. The exact thresholds and examples are explained in the report.

Example Interpretations
Team C Green
Core

RUI
73%
RSX
55%

Approval: Core & RUI high, RSX minimum standard met.

Team B Yellow

Pilot with conditions: Strengthen RUI specifically.

Interpretation: Core & RUI are the main criteria; RSX sets the lower limit.

No. Core Readiness (7 core fields) shows the performance foundation; RUI measures the quality of use; RSX sets the security filter. The traffic light decision is based on this.
