Why AI Projects Fail (And How Our Tools Help)
Research shows that 60-80% of AI projects fail to deliver expected ROI. The most common reasons include:
- Unrealistic budgets: Organizations underestimate AI costs by 2-3x. Our cost calculator provides realistic 2025 market-based estimates.
- Wrong vendor selection: Choosing vendors without proper evaluation. Our tools help you define requirements and find the right match.
- Lack of readiness assessment: Starting projects without infrastructure. Our readiness tool identifies gaps before you begin.
- Missing business case: No clear ROI expectations. Our ROI calculator helps build compelling business cases.
