AI doesn’t start with tools — it starts with clarity.

In our Benchmark work and inside AIAB, one pattern keeps showing up: the teams who win with AI are the ones who map, validate, and align before they automate.

Today’s article breaks down why Roadmapping is the missing foundation for most leaders — and how a simple visual process can turn uncertainty into momentum.

𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁 - 𝗡𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝘃𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗱'𝗲𝘂𝘅 🙏

Today, I pause to remember.

Not just as a Canadian, but as a Veteran — and as the young pilot in this picture, who once looked up at the sky with purpose and hope.

Remembrance Day is not about glorifying war — it’s about honouring courage, sacrifice, and the quiet strength of those who served.
It’s about gratitude — for those who gave everything so we could build, dream, and lead in freedom.

At 11:00 a.m., I’ll be taking a moment of silence.
I invite you to join me — wherever you are — to remember, reflect, and give thanks.

Lest we forget.
🇨🇦

-------

Aujourd’hui, je prends un moment pour me souvenir.
Pas seulement comme Canadien, mais comme ancien militaire — et comme le jeune pilote sur cette photo, qui regardait le ciel avec espoir et détermination.

Le Jour du Souvenir n’est pas là pour glorifier la guerre, mais pour honorer le courage, le sacrifice et la force tranquille de celles et ceux qui ont servi.
C’est un moment de gratitude — envers ceux qui ont tout donné pour que nous puissions bâtir, rêver et diriger en liberté.

À 11 h, j’observerai une minute de silence.
Je vous invite à vous joindre à moi — où que vous soyez — pour vous souvenir, réfléchir et dire merci.

Nous nous souviendrons d’eux.

This November, we’re turning data into action.

Over the past months, the 2025 AI Tools & Solutions Market Benchmark revealed how leaders use AI to simplify, accelerate, and scale.

Now it’s time to put those insights to work — inside the AI Accelerator Bootcamp (𝗔𝗜𝗔𝗕 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱).

Each day of the event focuses on one essential business challenge — with guided sessions, real-world use cases, and training sessions designed to help you build the right AI stack for your needs.

As we wrap up our 10-Report Benchmark Series tomorrow, I want to share a glimpse of what’s next.

Because data only matters if it drives action.

That’s why we created 𝗔𝗜𝗔𝗕 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 —
T𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗽: 𝟳 𝗗𝗮𝘆𝘀 • 𝟳 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗺𝗲𝘀 • 𝟮𝟴 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀.

A week designed to help leaders turn Benchmark insights into business outcomes — fast.

Each day focuses on a real-world challenge, from strategy to productivity, marketing to innovation — matched with practical AI tools and workflows that deliver measurable ROI.

🧭 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟭 – AI for Strategic Focus → From Noise to Navigation
⚙️ 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮 – AI for Productivity & Workflow → The Automation Edge
💡 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟯 – AI for SMBs & ROI → Speed to Value Beats Size
🎯 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟰 – AI for Marketing & Growth → From Guesswork to Growth
…and much more through Day 7 – Innovation in Motion.

Each module follows our Ask-4-Growth 5-Step Process —
Diagnose → Design → Plan → Deliver → Adapt —
helping you build the right AI stack for your needs, not just the one making headlines.

Because adoption isn’t about having more tools.

It’s about building momentum that compounds.

Some of the most expensive tools in our Benchmark ranked outside the Top 20 for Value.

Across categories, we found a clear pattern:

In mature workflows, teams don’t pay for “everything.”

They pay for enough — the features that deliver outcomes without overhead.

In our 2025 AI Tools & Solutions Market Benchmark, challengers like TLDR This, Google Alerts, Substack, and Runway outperformed high-priced incumbents on ROI per dollar by pairing solid functionality with faster onboarding and lower TCO.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁:

𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗣𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲

Productivity and project management tools are leading the AI adoption curve.

In our latest AI Market Benchmark, Productivity/PM tools show some of the highest adoption signals — led by 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗜 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗭𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗲𝗿 (𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝟵.𝟬 𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵) — combining strong performance, usability, and deep ecosystem integration.

We recently spoke with a growing digital agency that connected Notion AI and Zapier to manage client deliverables.
→ 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗜 𝗱𝗿𝗮𝗳𝘁𝘀 creative briefs and meeting summaries in minutes.
→ 𝗭𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 task creation across Asana, Slack, and Google Drive — no manual follow-up needed.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁?
✅ Cycle-time reduction 35–45 %
✅ Adoption rates 2× higher in integrated stacks
✅ More time for strategic and creative work

And the pattern isn’t isolated.

According to 𝗔𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗮’𝘀 𝗔𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗺𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗲𝘅 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱, teams using AI to automate coordination 𝘀𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝟲.𝟮 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀 𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗲𝗲, 𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸 — equivalent to almost 8 working weeks per year regained for higher-value work.

Our Benchmark shows why AI-enabled suites are winning:

In-surface AI = 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗿𝗮𝗳𝘁𝘀

Brand kits = 𝗳𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀

Review-in-flow = 𝗻𝗼 𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴-𝗽𝗼𝗻𝗴

Cross-surface reuse = 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘁, 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗽𝘂𝘁𝘀

When the next action is obvious and brand-safe, teams ship more—without adding tools.

One team halved approval time with brand-safe templates.
Another automated phishing enrichment—with human approvals on risky steps.

𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗙𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆

This marketing team didn’t “adopt AI.”
They rebuilt how content gets made.

They combined Notion AI, Copy.ai, and Grammarly — three tools their writers already trusted — into a single, usable flow:

𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗜 → first-draft and idea refinement
𝗖𝗼𝗽𝘆.𝗮𝗶 → ad and social variants in minutes
𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 → tone, clarity, and brand guardrails in real time

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁?
Time-to-first-draft dropped by 47%
Revisions per asset fell by 36%
Output volume doubled — with zero new hires

Our 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮 (Full 70-page Report) shows why:
Teams using AI tools embedded in existing workflows see adoption rates 2.8× higher and ROI 1.9× faster than those running stand-alone apps.

And it’s not just us.
A 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 𝗚𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆 found that 78% of CMOs now rank ease of integration and authoring experience as the top driver of AI marketing success — ahead of even cost or features.

“I𝘯 𝘮𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘶𝘴𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘨𝘺. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘰𝘭𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘱 𝘰𝘣𝘷𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘢𝘧𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘙𝘖𝘐.” — 𝘌𝘳𝘪𝘤 @ 𝘚𝘐𝘟:𝘈1

The lesson?
Don’t chase new tools.
Design a smoother runway for the ones your team will actually use.
