Even the smart money is getting skeptical about AI tools.
A top VC just said he's stepping back from investing in AI coding startups — not because AI is failing, but because the generic tools are getting crowded out. He's betting on domain expertise instead. People who deeply understand a specific industry and build AI around that.
That should tell you something.
The AI tools that nobody uses? They were built for everyone, which means they were built for no one. Your $200/month ghost subscription isn't your fault. You were sold a Swiss Army knife when you needed a scalpel.
The shift happening right now — even at the investor level — is away from flashy general tools toward focused solutions that solve one real problem in one real industry.
That's actually great news for you.
Instead of chasing the next hyped platform, ask a sharper question: what is the single most repetitive, time-consuming task in my business right now? That answer points you directly to where AI earns its keep in 30 days or less. No ripping anything apart. No learning to code.
One problem. One tool. One win.
What's the AI tool your team tried and quietly abandoned — and what do you think went wrong?

Salovaara said he's excited about founders with deep domain expertise instead. He said we may see existing AI coding firms acquire smaller ones.
