The Argentum AI Indices and Surveys, powered by SAVANT-AI.
Stop guessing. Place yourself, and your organization, on the map. Take a short survey, and get your Index result: where you stand on the five levels of AI maturity, and which level is asking for your attention next.
The Leadership Index: measure your individual AI readiness
Nine questions. Five minutes. A personalized result placing you on the five levels, with a clear next step.
The Maturity Index: measure your organization's AI maturity
Fourteen questions. Ten minutes. The companion instrument for operators, calibrated for senior-living realities — front office and back.

Argentum AI Leadership Sprint — July 2026.
We take your team through all five levels of AI maturity in one week. They arrive Monday with limited experience. By Friday they're operating — and ready to lead. A custom AI assistant. A working integration. Their first agent built. The kind of tools that compound margin and protect NOI inside the operation you already run.
| Monday, July 13 | 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM CT | Two 90-minute sessions |
| Wednesday, July 15 | 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM CT | Two 90-minute sessions |
| Friday, July 17 | 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM CT | One two-hour session |
What You'll Learn and Build
Your Index result places you; the week moves you. Each day pairs strategic knowledge with hands-on building, organized by the five levels of AI maturity. By Friday you can not only do the work, you can explain it to your team and lead it. You leave with your Argentum AI Leadership Index score and personalized next steps, ready-to-apply playbooks, reference materials, and recordings of every session — all built for operators and owners, not technologists.
Monday, July 13 · Get Oriented and Create · Levels 1–2 · Assistance → Acceleration
Name the hype, then get to what's real. We start with the elephant in the room — the rumors, the headlines, the noise — then move to what is real and actionable: what's Possible, Safe, and Profitable. You get the full landscape, a plain answer to what a large language model actually is, and why it touches every seat in your operation: front office and back, clinical and operational. Then you create, and cross the line from assistant to agent — because an assistant helps you while you are there; an agent works while you are not. Today you:
- See the current state of AI in 2026
- Get quick wins: practical AI for you and your team
- Learn the R.O.C.K. prompt for clear, reliable communication with AI
- Create your own digital twin, your first custom assistant
- Create your AI chief of staff, your first autonomous agent
You leave with: the session recording, reference materials, your first working custom tool (your digital twin), and a set of ready-to-apply playbooks — writing a R.O.C.K. prompt, building a digital twin and a workflow tool on ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, or Claude, and creating your own study guides. Safety, in plain terms: use sanctioned tools your organization has paid for.
Wednesday, July 15 · Connect and Automate · Level 3 · Augmentation → Automation
Connect your universe, then automate it. Today you:
- Connect your tools: mail, calendar, spreadsheets, and more
- Document your daily workflows (on paper first)
- Design automated systems for recurring tasks
- Create playbooks for you and your teams
You leave with: the recording, a working automation, a personalized workflow blueprint, playbooks for connecting and automating on your platform, and the automation-tools reference map.
Friday, July 17 · Lead the Way — Agentic Systems, Strategy, ROI, and Governance · Levels 4–5 · Agentic
From doing the work to leading it. Today you:
- Understand agentic systems
- See where this is all heading
- Weigh token use, cost, and ROI
- Prepare your people for cultural change
- Set policy, governance, and security for resident and family data
You leave with: the recording, a governance one-pager, a champion and onboarding checklist, and a personalized 90-day roadmap built from your own Index result — your personalized next steps.
Every question on your Leadership Index and your organization's Maturity Index is answered across these three days — so when you re-measure, the movement is real.
