 Total cost of ownership (TCO) and return on investment (ROI) sit next to each other in every AI business case, but they answer **very different questions**. When you separate them clearly, your AI evaluations become sharper, more defensible, and far easier to communicate to leadership. TCO includes all costs across the AI lifecycle.
