Kevin O’Leary recently pointed out that there are 36 million small businesses in the U.S. that are desperate to use AI but don’t know how. The real bottleneck for them isn't a knowledge gap, it’s a judgment gap. Owners are drowning in AI information and demos, but they lack the judgment to know which tools actually fit their specific business and how to make them run every day without constant human babysitting.\nJubal: Which is why we focus on implementation, not consulting. Consulting is what O'Leary calls a \" slow drift into mediocrity. \" Small businesses don't need a strategy deck; they need someone to ship a working system. A consultant tells you that AI could save you ten hours a week, but an implementer actually makes those ten hours disappear within your own tools. We prioritize clarity, cost-benefit, and \" what to do Monday. \"\nAnya: You also have to look at the emotional blocks and human friction (the owners are overwhelmed and...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/nmwPMRYZalXVwQmwR4vitu8u9bGSg-PkLxZ4VqbIdr0/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS83MGNj/MTU4MzFhZTQ0ZmJh/ZjI0YTQzODE1ZjY2/MGM5My5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
