I counted 60 AI tools in one infographic this week. Most companies will try a few and go nowhere.
A friend sent me a chart of 60 AI tools across 12 categories, and most companies I work with are piloting a few without ever getting one fully working. My advice is to pick one tool, tie it to one costly workflow, and give it 90 days before adding more.
As seen on LinkedIn Follow Pete on LinkedIn (opens LinkedIn in a new tab) A friend sent me a chart of 60 AI tools across 12 categories (attached).
Chatbots, presentations, scheduling, video, you name it.
Most companies I work with are running pilots on three or four already.
Almost none have one tool fully working in the business.
Here is my advice:
• Pick one tool.
• Tie it to one workflow that costs you real time today.
• Give it 90 days before you add anything else.
One tool used well beats five underutilized tools.
