Why Most AI Initiatives Stall and What Separates the 19% That Don’t
Two years ago, a landmark study found only 22% of enterprises had data architecture ready for AI.
In 2026, the number of organizations with AI agents in production is 19%. This number sits almost exactly where the 2024 study left it.
The gap didn’t close. It didn’t even meaningfully change. This report examines why the data foundation is still the deciding factor in AI success and what it looks like when organizations get it right:
12x more projects in production with unified governance
327% multi-agent workflow growth in four months
The blueprint still works. Here's how to follow it.
