Real-time Analytics News for the Week Ending May 9 - RTInsights

You bought the AI tool. Nobody used it. $200/month quietly canceled three months later.

That's not a you problem. That's a vendor problem.

Here's what most business owners miss: AI tools fail not because of the technology, but because they're sold as complete solutions when they're actually just components. Like buying an engine without a car.

The trend this week in real-time data tools tells you something useful. The companies gaining traction aren't selling standalone AI. They're building AI that connects directly into workflows people already use. The tool meets your team where they already are — instead of asking your team to go somewhere new.

That distinction matters. The $200/month graveyard is full of tools that required behavior change before delivering value. The ones that stick require almost none.

So here's your one concrete move this week: before evaluating any AI tool, ask the vendor one question — "What does my team have to change about their current workflow to use this?" If the answer is more than two steps, walk away.

That filter alone will save you thousands.

What's the AI tool your team was supposed to use but never did — and what got in the way?
