What 3,000 AI Case Studies Actually Tell Us (And What They Don’t)

I analyzed 3,023 enterprise AI use cases to understand what's actually being deployed vs. vendor claims.

Google published 996 cases (33% of dataset), Microsoft 755 (25%). These reflect marketing budgets, not market share.

OpenAI published only 151 cases but appears in 500 implementations (3.3x multiplier through Azure).

This shows what vendors publish, not:

  • Success rates (failures aren't documented)
  • Total cost of ownership
  • Pilot vs production ratios

Those looking to deploy AI should stop chasing hype, and instead look for measurable production deployments.

Full analysis on Substack.
