The AI ROI Engine
The Operating System for Turning Enterprise AI Investment into Real ReturnsBy Brandon C. Powell
Length6h 59m
About this audiobook
Nearly every company has adopted AI. Almost none can prove it was worth it. In The AI ROI Engine, Brandon C. Powell draws on more than a hundred enterprise deployments to show why most AI initiatives stall and what the few that pay actually do differently. The book lays out a complete operating system: three value levers to find where AI creates money, a formula to size it honestly, Four Trust Gates to fund and govern it, and a ninety-day plan to prove your first defensible ROI number. Read by the author, using an AI model trained on his own voice.
