Positioning
When is the check-up enough, and when do you need a consultation?
The Digital check-up shows you broadly where the greatest potential lies. The consultation goes deeper: figures are verified in conversation, processes are analysed and a roadmap is created.

Who it is for
Who benefits from the Digital check-up?
It fits if you …
- run an owner-managed company with roughly 10 to 250 employees
- sense that time and money are leaking away, but not exactly where
- are facing an investment in software, AI or staff
- need a figure to make your case internally or to your bank
It is less suitable if you …
- already have a finished digital strategy with a business case
- are a sole trader without a team
- need a verified figure for a funding application (that is what the consultation is for)

Before we talk
What to know before you start.
Your question is not here? In the initial conversation we take 30 minutes for your specific topic.
A structured self-assessment that shows how far your company has come in digitalisation and where investments pay off most. The ivato Digital check-up assesses five levers: sales & CRM, scaling with AI, cost pressure, succession and remote leadership.
For each lever you answer four assessment questions on a scale from 0 to 3. From this we calculate a maturity score from 0 to 100. The higher the value, the better your company is positioned digitally.
Answering the questions and your maturity score are free of charge. The full analysis with ranking, business case, recommendation and PDF report costs a one-off €30 plus VAT.
It is a well-founded estimate based on your own input and documented experience from more than 1,000 successfully supported projects. All assumptions are shown openly in the report. A verified figure, for a funding application for example, is developed in the consultation.
Your answers are used solely for your analysis and processed on servers in our own data centre in Germany. You can request deletion at any time. Details are in our privacy policy.
Yes. If you book a Consultation Compact or Complete within 30 days, we deduct the €30 from the consultation price.
No. You receive your report by email. A conversation only takes place if you request one yourself.
In 15 minutes you will know where your company is leaving money on the table.
Answer the questions free of charge. You only pay for the analysis.
