I am new to this world so im unsure which direction to go in but so far i am trying to build an AI-powered business audit system that does not guess, hallucinate, or give generic advice.

The goal is for the AI to look at a real business and identify real bottlenecks, missed revenue opportunities, operational leaks, and growth opportunities before suggesting any solutions.

I do not want it to just say things like “run ads,” “post more content,” or “improve your website” without evidence.

I want the AI to first understand:

1. What the business actually does

2. Who the customer is

3. How the business currently gets customers

4. Where revenue is being lost

5. What the industry pain points are

6. What competitors are doing better

7. Where customers are confused, dropping off, or not buying

8. What operations may be wasting time or money

9. What offers, upsells, premium tiers, or campaigns could realistically increase revenue

10. What changes would create one of these outcomes:

- More customers

- Customers worth more

- Lower costs

- Better retention

- More efficient operations

My question is:

What would be the best process, framework, data sources, prompts, or workflow to create an AI business audit system that can diagnose a business accurately before recommending solutions?

I’m especially looking for advice on:

- What information the AI should collect first

- How to verify problems instead of assuming them

- How to separate real business issues from surface-level observations

- What frameworks consultants or operators use to diagnose businesses

- How to turn the audit into practical recommendations like marketing campaigns, upsells, premium offers, automation, cost cutting, or operational improvements

- How to make the output useful enough that a business owner would say, “Yes, that’s a real problem in my business”

Has anyone built something like this, or can point me toward the right structure? Feel free to tell me of this is a waste of time and pivot to specifics more valuable i am open to suggestions
