The smartest AI founders in Australia aren't worried about which tool to buy first.

They're worried about whether the government will let them keep building.

You've probably felt that sting — the $200/month tool sitting unused, the consultant who vanished after the kickoff call. That's not a you problem. That's an industry that rewards selling over delivering.

Here's what caught my attention. Heidi Health, an Australian AI company now valued at $700 million, is raising flags about tax changes making it harder to fund AI ventures locally. That signals something important — even serious, successful AI businesses are navigating real friction. Not just hype. Real decisions with real consequences.

Which means the bar for picking AI tools that actually work just got higher. The noise isn't going away. But the businesses that survive the shake-out will be the ones who started small, proved value fast, and built from there.

One thing you can do this week: pick one repetitive task your team does daily and ask whether AI could handle the first draft. Not the whole process. Just the first draft. That's where most early wins live.

What's the one task in your business that eats time but requires almost zero judgment?
