The CFPB just quietly gave small business lenders a break. Most business owners missed what that actually signals about AI adoption.
When regulators scale back compliance requirements, they're acknowledging something important: complexity kills adoption. The same rule applies to AI tools.
You didn't fail with that $200/month software nobody uses. The tool failed you. It was built for a use case that didn't match your actual workflow. That's not a you problem — that's a vendor problem dressed up as innovation.
Here's what the CFPB move teaches us about picking AI tools: smaller, targeted solutions outperform broad platforms every time. Regulators learned that overwhelming smaller lenders with complex reporting crushed participation. AI vendors haven't learned that lesson yet — but you can use it.
Start with one repetitive task your team actually complains about. Not the biggest problem. The most annoying one. Find the narrowest tool that solves exactly that. Nothing else.
That's your first win. Measurable in 30 days. No system overhaul required. No coding. No consultants.
Small and specific beats big and impressive every time.
What's the one task your team wastes the most time on that you've never thought to automate?
