You didn't fail at AI. You got buried under too much of it.
Business Insider just named it officially: we're in the Age of AI Sprawl. The average company is now running 10+ AI tools with no clear owner, no clear purpose, and no clear ROI. Sound familiar?
That tool nobody on your team uses? That's not a you problem. That's the industry's problem. Vendors sell subscriptions. Consultants sell complexity. Nobody sells clarity.
Here's what the sprawl report quietly confirms: the businesses winning with AI aren't using more tools. They're using fewer, chosen for one specific job, measured against one specific outcome.
That's the whole strategy. One problem. One tool. One measurable result in 30 days.
Before you add anything new, audit what you already have. Write down every AI subscription you're paying for. Next to each one, write the business problem it was supposed to solve. If you can't answer that in one sentence, that's your starting point — not a new purchase.
The gap isn't your tech knowledge. It's that nobody helped you buy with purpose.
What's the one AI tool you're paying for right now that nobody on your team actually uses?
