Most AI agencies don’t realize they’re building on a ticking time bomb
When your entire client workflow depends on third-party tools with subscriptions and closed APIs, you’re at the mercy of price hikes, policy shifts, or outright shutdowns.
It’s easy to chase speed and convenience, but long-term stability comes from owning the core systems—not just branding over someone else’s sandbox.
Some questions worth asking:
  • Can my client still operate if the tool I used disappears tomorrow?
  • Who owns the data, really?
  • Am I building systems… or just stitching other people's systems together?
Ownership isn't always the fastest route—but it’s the one with leverage.
