The 2026 AI Readiness Benchmark Report

Anonymized findings from 300+ companies who completed our AI Readiness Quiz — what separates the leaders from the laggards.

We surveyed 300+ companies through our AI Readiness Quiz. The findings show a clear pattern: the gap between AI leaders and AI laggards is not about technology budget. It is about discipline.

Key findings from the 2026 benchmark

  • The top 10% of companies have AI in production across 4+ business functions
  • The bottom 25% have not yet identified a single AI use case
  • Data foundation is the #1 differentiator (not AI talent, not AI budget)
  • Companies with a written AI strategy outperform peers by 3x on adoption metrics
  • Leadership AI fluency is the single best predictor of program success
