Methodology in brief
What the levels, style, growth edge, and SP Score mean - and where to find the full methodology.
#What do the levels mean?
Four levels describe how much AI is part of your work:
| Level | In one sentence |
|---|---|
| AI Explorer | Still trying AI out and looking for a first stable use |
| L1 Operator | Uses AI regularly in everyday work |
| L2 Builder | Builds their own workflows, templates, assistants, or tools |
| L3 Transformer | AI changed the way they do an important part of their work |
A level is not a grade, and L3 is not a mandatory goal. What decides is what is actually visible in your work, not self-assessment.
#What does the style (profile) mean?
Where you most often create value with AI: Vision (you look for opportunities and direction), Analysis (you think and decide with AI), Creation (you create texts, presentations, prototypes), Scaling (you turn repeated work into a system). It is not a personality type. When your work changes, the style can change too.
#What is the growth edge (next step)?
The direction that will most likely move you forward now. It is not a weakness. Example: you can create outputs quickly, but you start from scratch every time; the next step is to turn that into a repeatable process.
#What is the SP Score™?
A number from 0 to 100 that shows your position within your level. The main result is the level; the score is most meaningful in repeated measurement, because it shows progress even when the level name has not changed yet.
#Where do I find the complete methodology?
Publicly at docs.aibility.org: descriptions of levels and their signals, the scoring logic, profiles, growth areas, and a guide to your personal AI context. The methodology's principles are open to anyone.
