Anyone else waste days switching between automation tools before committing?

Generative AI
Built a lead routing workflow last week that should've taken two hours. New form submission comes in, gets scored, lands in HubSpot, pings the right Slack channel. Done this before. Should've been an afternoon. Took three days. Not because it was hard, because I kept convincing myself the next tool would be cleaner. Got halfway through in one platform, hit some friction, jumped to the next one. By day two I had half-finished automations in four different tools and a creeping feeling that most of the "AI automation" category is just the same three features in different packaging.
