Barnsley Startup AnchorVine Targets an Overlooked AI Problem for SMEs: Deciding What to Do Next

Not which tool to buy. Not how to use it. But simply: where do you even start?
You bought the tool. Maybe paid the consultant. The software sat there, the team shrugged, and now it's a line item you feel vaguely guilty about every month. That's not a tech failure. That's a clarity failure. And nobody warned you that was the real problem.
Here's what's actually going on. Most business owners aren't struggling with AI capability. They're struggling with AI direction. What problem am I actually solving? What's blocking progress right now? Those questions have to come before any tool decision.
A UK startup called AnchorVine just built an entire platform around this gap. Helping small business owners identify their real priorities, remove the blockers, and build a structured action plan before committing to anything. The order matters more than the tool.
This is your one practical takeaway: before you evaluate another AI tool, write down the single most repetitive task costing you time this week. Just one. That's your first AI project. Start there.
What's the biggest gap you've hit with AI so far — too many options, or not knowing what problem to solve first?
