When founders think about AI, they think of disruption.

They imagine raising big rounds, scaling faster than rivals, and building the next unicorn.

But here’s the hidden truth: AI doesn’t forgive mistakes.

Most startups rush in.
They bolt on “AI features” just to impress investors.
They underestimate the data, the talent, the ethics, the cost.

And then?
The hype fades.
The product stalls.
The startup burns out.

But this isn’t a doom story.
This is an opportunity.

If you know the traps, you can avoid them.
If you know the playbook, AI becomes your edge.

That’s why I wrote this:

​The Biggest Mistakes Startups Make When Adopting AI — And How to Avoid Them​

If you’re building, investing, or even thinking about AI… you need to read this.

PS: AI isn’t a feature. It’s a strategy. Done right, it’s the growth hack your startup needs to win.
