The twelve that bear most on your assistant's performance and your roadmap. The other nineteen get an indicative read, so nothing large goes unnoticed; they are simply not scored to the same depth. ### What does 'scored in full' mean? Each of the twelve is placed on its maturity level against the [CDI Standards Framework](/conversational-ai-for-business/standards-framework), with the reasoning written down, so you can see why you scored what you scored and what the next level looks like. ### Why a 90-day plan? Because a list of gaps is not a plan. Ninety days is long enough to close the quick fixes and start on the structural ones, and short enough that the plan still describes the assistant you actually have. ### Can we move up to Comprehensive later? Yes. All four assessments score against the same framework, so your Focused scores carry over; [Comprehensive](/conversational-ai-for-business/comprehensive-assessment) verifies them with evidence and extends the read to the standards Focused only touched. ## Resources [](/resources#events) ![Events](/assets/images/components/molecules/quick-links/users.svg) Events [](/blog) ![Blogs](/assets/images/components/molecules/quick-links/pen-paper.svg) Blogs [](/resources#reports) ![Reports & Research](/assets/images/components/molecules/quick-links/papers.svg) Reports & Research [](/case-studies) ![Case studies](/assets/images/components/molecules/quick-links/puzzle.svg) Case studies [](/use-cases) ![Use cases](/assets/images/components/molecules/quick-links/bubble.svg) Use cases [](/contact) ![FAQs](/assets/images/components/molecules/quick-links/questions.svg) FAQs
