The AI Department for Small Business

Just advanced to Stage 1 of the AI Venture Velocity Challenge at Mays Business School. $100K of non-dilutive funding on the line. Between now and June 20 the goal is real conversations and real evidence. Here's what I'm building. OpenAI just launched a $4B deployment company to embed AI engineers inside enterprises and rebuild their core workflows. Anthropic announced a parallel $1.5B venture with Blackstone and Goldman Sachs the same week. Both are racing to become the AI department for large companies. Nobody is doing this for the small business owner. If you're a searcher or newer operator, one question: how are you thinking about AI in the businesses you're acquiring or running?
