I'm currently two days away from launching my project, and there is one thing I ve noticed while building lesoutils-ia.fr that I wanted to share here.
I didn't start this just to build another affiliate site. It actually came from a pretty simple frustration. Every time I talked to friends running small businesses in France, they seemed completely overwhelmed by the AI hype.
For them, all these new tools just feel like background noise. They don't have the time to test dozens of different platforms or keep up with every new launch. They just want to know one thing: how is this going to save me two hours of work on a Friday or help me close a deal?
The language barrier is part of it, sure, but it's more about the business culture. Most AI tools are documented for US startups, not for a traditional French SME.
