Don't sell your business before you know what AI costs you

Five companies let us audit what their AI actually costs. Three days inside each, every invoice and every machine. Nobody could produce the total. That is the problem. The cost of running AI arrives across a dozen invoices from a dozen teams, so it never shows up as one number and survives every budget cycle unquestioned. An invoice can be defensible on its own while the total it sits inside is impossible to defend. The day you find out is the day you sell or raise, and someone else's diligence produces the number for you. In this episode: where we looked, what a three-day read-only audit of 225 machines and 74 metrics turned up, why only 28% of the waste was measurable directly, which costs you are not allowed to remove, and what taking the rest out did to one company's Rule of 40 score and its valuation. If you're a $3M+ business in a regulated industry, we'll find the #1 constraint bottlenecking your business and the best solution to solve it - whether it's AI or not - for free: https://alreadybuilt.ai/strategy?r=y36p&utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=Y36-what-ai-waste-does-to-your-valuation&utm_content=desc_top
