The Output Index

Measuring how people work with AI.

The Output Index is an early-stage benchmark of how people at work use AI. This anonymous 4-minute assessment contributes to the first wave of data, which will be published later in 2026. No names, emails, or employer information are collected as part of the assessment. No individual results are shown at this stage — this is a moment to contribute to the measurement, not to receive one.

Assessment — 8 questions

Eight questions about how you work with AI day to day.

Q1
Think about the most important piece of work you produced last week. Which best describes the role AI played in it?
Q2
Think of the last time you used AI for a meaningful work task. How many back-and-forth exchanges did it take before you had what you needed?
Q3
When AI gives you an answer that seems confident and polished, how often do you verify it before using it?
Q4
In the last month, have you caught a significant error or problem in AI-generated work before it reached someone else?
Q5
How often do you push back on an AI's output — challenge its reasoning, point out what it got wrong, or ask it to reconsider?
Q6
Compared to six months ago, how would you describe the sophistication of how you use AI?
Q7
How well does your organisation currently support you in using AI effectively?
Q8
In the last month, roughly how much of your work time has AI enabled you to redeploy to higher-value or more interesting work?
Optional
What's the single biggest barrier preventing you from working more effectively with AI?
