The Time Audit: know which task gets automated first.
The Time Audit is a list of every recurring task in your business, with measured minutes instead of guesses. You get the task list as a file, with a decision on each task: automate, drop or keep. Plus a one-page memo with the ten tasks that matter most.
A sample task list from DMello Advisory's own practice. The full reference paper is available for download below on this page. Voice and animation AI-generated. Figures from our own measurement.

- Your task list as a file, one line per task

Frequently asked questions
How long does a time audit take?
Capture runs through a structured intake, and the analysis takes five working days after that. You receive the task list and memo as finished files. Questions about the process are best answered in the 20-minute diagnosis, the route to a slot is below.
What counts as an active minute?
Only the time genuinely needed at the screen to decide, check or approve. Waiting time, where something runs in the background, does not count. The full task list with this logic is part of the Time Audit; we go through it in the free 20-minute diagnosis. Prefer to read first? The reference paper.
Do I need a software change beforehand?
No. The Time Audit measures the existing workflow, regardless of the mailbox or tool in use. Changes come after, with a decision per row. Whether that pays off for you, we settle in the free 20-minute diagnosis. Prefer to read first? The reference paper.
What happens after the Time Audit?
Rows with the decision automate become the basis for a Build Sprint, the Cost Audit or the Company Day, depending on scope. The Time Audit is credited 100% against a Build Sprint ordered within 30 days. Which step comes first is best decided in the 20-minute diagnosis, against your own rows.
