Find the hidden friction costing your business growth.
MikaHari Labs analyses your public business footprint — website, reviews, competitors, trust signals and workflow clues — to produce an evidence-led action plan for what to fix first.
Broad enough to scan any service-led business. Structured enough to reveal sector-specific opportunities.
Sample output
Board-ready friction map
Recommended 30-day fix
Rebuild the enquiry path around proof, triage and faster follow-up before adding deeper automation.
Not a generic AI score. A board-ready friction report.
The scan turns public signals into a concise report: evidence, scorecard, competitor context, recommendations and a 30-day fix pilot.
Sample scan
Quantum Broker Group
Financial services SME · Outside-in snapshot
Strong adviser trust, but the website asks prospects to enquire before proving process clarity, response speed or specialist fit.
Evidence base
Repeated praise for adviser quality, but 6 recent mentions of slow updates after enquiry.
Main enquiry CTA appears before process, proof and response-time expectations are explained.
Two local peers show clearer specialist niches and stronger review proof above the fold.
Top actions
- Rebuild the enquiry path around proof, expected response time and qualification routing.
- Turn existing customer praise into sector-specific proof blocks and landing-page claims.
- Pilot a lead triage and document collection workflow before adding broader automation.
30-day fix pilot
Build a lead-response and document-collection workflow with human review, clear success metrics and evidence captured for future optimisation.
How public signals become a commercial action plan
The scan is designed to create an "aha" moment without overclaiming: source detail first, interpretation second, implementation last.
Capture the signal
Website, reviews, competitor pages, search presence, trust markers and sector-specific public sources are preserved with source references.
Classify the evidence
Findings are separated into observed facts, derived metrics, interpretations and recommendations so the report stays defensible.
Score the friction
Signals are scored across customer voice, digital journey, trust, revenue leakage, workflow drag and implementation readiness.
Prioritise the fix
The output does not end as a dashboard. It ends with one practical 30-day pilot, a success metric and a path to implementation.
Consulting-grade insight, built for practical implementation.
The point is not to produce another dashboard. The point is to show a business what to fix first, why it matters, and how to act without creating transformation theatre.
Every recommendation must connect to an owner, effort level, confidence score and measurable next action.
Evidence-led diagnosis
The scan preserves source URLs, excerpts and confidence levels before any summary or recommendation is written.
Commercial prioritisation
Findings are ranked by likely impact on trust, speed, revenue leakage and implementation feasibility — not by AI novelty.
Builder-led implementation
MikaHari does not stop at slides. The report bridges directly into a scoped 30-day fix pilot with measurable outcomes.
A ladder from insight to recurring improvement.
Start with visible public friction. Move only as far as the evidence justifies: deeper diagnosis, one fix, then ongoing monitoring.

Real regulatory citations, not generic chatbot answers
When we recommend AI implementation strategies, we speak from direct experience building production systems — not slide decks.
AI-powered compliance for UK SMEs.
Automated risk assessments, document generation with regulatory citations, and ongoing monitoring — at a fraction of the cost of human consultants.
- AI-powered risk assessment with real citations

Clear scope. Evidence first. No vague AI promises.
The free snapshot is an outside-in teaser showing visible friction from public signals. The paid Business Friction Scan is the board-ready version: deeper evidence collection, competitor comparison, scorecard, recommendations and a 30-day fix proposal.
We start with public or semi-public sources: your website, search presence, public reviews, competitor sites, social/profile signals, Companies House and regulated/trust registers where relevant. Deeper scans can add client-provided artefacts with permission.
Not in the usual generic sense. AI helps collect, classify and summarise signals, but the product is an evidence-led business diagnosis. The recommendations are reviewed through a commercial and risk-aware lens.
Findings are labelled as observed fact, derived metric, interpretation or hypothesis. The report includes source references and confidence levels, so you can see what is proven and what needs validation with internal data.
It is strongest for service-led, trust-heavy businesses where reputation, proof, speed, follow-up and operational clarity affect revenue — for example brokers, accountants, agencies, clinics, local services and e-commerce operators.
Every paid scan ends with a recommended 30-day fix pilot. That could be a better enquiry journey, lead triage, document collection workflow, customer proof system, reporting dashboard or another practical improvement identified by the evidence.
