Founder Uses AI to Cut Micro-Decisions, Saving 31 Hours a Week

The author argues that AI's greatest value for founders isn't picking better models, but filtering out the dozens of micro-decisions that shouldn't reach their desk.
After implementing AI in their own company over 8 months, they saw significant improvements:
- Work completed without founder intervention jumped from 12% to 81%.
- Time spent chasing, routing, and checking dropped from 40 hours/week to 9.
- Median client response time across platforms fell from 24 hours to 4 minutes.
The author notes that harmless 2-minute approvals collectively drain the mental bandwidth needed for major strategic decisions, and slow responses directly impact churn.
