The AI software industry is quietly repricing itself around you. And the companies selling you tools right now may not survive the next 18 months. Here's what that actually means for your business.
The AI software industry is quietly repricing itself around you. And the companies selling you tools right now may not survive the next 18 months.
Here's what that actually means for your business.
If you bought an AI tool your team never opened, you're not alone and you're not foolish. The vendor sold you a vision, not a solution. That's on them, not you.
Here's the shift worth understanding. Major data analytics companies are restructuring their entire pricing models because agentic AI is changing what software actually does. Tools are moving from "log in and click around" to "run tasks automatically in the background." That changes everything about what you're buying.
This matters to you right now. Software vendors are scrambling to justify their pricing. That means negotiating leverage is shifting to buyers. Before you renew any AI subscription, ask one question: what specific task does this tool complete without my team touching it? If they can't answer that clearly, you have your answer.
One actionable step: audit your current AI tools this week. List what each one does automatically versus what still requires your team. Anything requiring daily manual input isn't AI. It's just expensive software.
What's the one AI tool you're paying for right now that nobody on your team actually uses?
