You bought the AI tool. Nobody used it. $200 a month, gone.
That doesn't make you tech-stupid. It makes you a normal business owner who got handed a solution before anyone understood your actual problem.
Here's what most AI vendors won't tell you: the tool failing usually isn't the tool's fault. It's that your data was never connected properly in the first place. AI doesn't create clarity — it amplifies whatever information you already have flowing through your business. Disconnected systems in, confused outputs out.
Companies like Boomi are finally talking openly about "data activation" — which just means making sure your existing business data is organized and accessible before any AI touches it. That's the step everyone skips. That's why nothing works.
The one thing you can do this week: before evaluating any AI tool, map out where your customer or operational data actually lives. QuickBooks, your CRM, your inbox, a spreadsheet somewhere. Just list it. That single exercise will tell you more about your AI readiness than any vendor demo.
What's one AI tool you've already paid for that your team quietly stopped using — and what do you think actually killed it?
