Operations Assessment · AI Strategy
Most businesses jump straight to building AI before they know what's actually broken. We map your operations first — then tell you exactly what to fix, what to automate, and what to leave alone.

Nobody demands surgery before a diagnosis. We assess before we build — every time.
Ready to find out what's actually worth automating?
Ready? Let's Talk.WHAT YOU GET
A clear picture of your operations. A ranked list of what to automate. A starting point that isn't guesswork.
A documented view of where your time actually goes — every manual step, every bottleneck, every handoff.
The automations that will return the most — ranked by impact, not by what's easiest to sell.
A clear prescription: what to build first, what to defer, and what to leave alone.
ABOUT
Dr. Joseph Adebayo spent decades in pharmacy and healthcare operations — one of the most process-critical environments in any industry. Alongside that, he worked as a data analyst, developing a quantitative eye for where time was lost, where errors compounded, and where manual steps created systemic bottlenecks. He holds a Six Sigma Green Belt certification from the American Society for Quality — a discipline built entirely around measuring inefficiency and engineering systematic improvements. That same methodology is what drives every automation Isheto builds.
He founded Isheto — Yoruba for ìṣètò, to plan, to set in order — to bring that same systems thinking to small service businesses. His approach: diagnose the operation before anything gets built. Then build only what the diagnosis supports.
Dr. Adebayo works with business owners who are too busy running the business to become technologists. That's exactly who Isheto is built for.
FAQ
Everything you need to know before we start working together.
We work with small business owners who are running the operation themselves — whether that's a 3-person trade business, a 20-person clinic, or a growing service company with a team. The common thread isn't the industry. It's that the owner or a key person is spending real time every week on manual work that should be running automatically. If follow-up, scheduling, confirmations, reporting, or admin is eating your hours — you're exactly who this is built for.
The Operations Assessment typically takes 1–2 weeks depending on the size and complexity of your business. From there, if you decide to move to implementation, the timeline depends on what was identified in the Assessment. We don't promise a fixed number before we know what we're building.
Not at all. You describe how your business runs in plain language — we handle everything technical. You won't touch code, configure APIs, or manage any infrastructure. You'll be able to see exactly what's running and understand what it does, without needing to manage it yourself.
There are three stages, and each has a different cost.
The qualifying call is free. It's a 20-minute conversation to understand your business and confirm whether an Operations Assessment makes sense.
If it does, the Operations Assessment is a flat fee of $1,500 per person interviewed. We interview the people who actually run your day-to-day operations — that could be one person, or it could be several. A business where we interview three people would be $4,500. You'll know the exact cost before we begin, based on how many interviews the Assessment requires.
Only after the Assessment is complete — once we've mapped your workflows and identified the priorities — do we give you a number for any implementation work. You're not committing to a build when you book the Assessment. You're paying for a diagnosis. What you do with that diagnosis is entirely up to you.
Tools like Zapier are powerful if you have the time and patience to build, test, debug, and maintain them yourself. Most business owners doing five other jobs don't. We design the workflow logic, validate it against real scenarios, handle edge cases, and keep it running. You get the result without the learning curve or the ongoing maintenance headache.
The short answer: we diagnose before we build. Most AI implementations fail for the same reasons: off-the-shelf tools that weren't designed for your specific workflows, no real validation before going live, and no one accountable for making it work after the setup call. What's different here is that we start with your business — not a product. We map your actual processes before building anything, design the automation specifically around how you work, and validate everything against your real tasks before it goes anywhere near your operation. You're not handed a tool and left to figure it out. We stay on it. If something doesn't work, we fix it — that's part of what you're paying for.
