We don't charge hourly, and we'd steer you away from any consultant who prices AI work that way. Hourly billing rewards time spent, not results delivered. It also makes it nearly impossible to compare quotes or predict what a project will actually cost you by the end.
Instead, we structure engagements around outcomes, not hours logged. Our model runs through three tiers: an Assessment (2-3 weeks) to identify where AI can move the needle in your business and what to prioritize, a Sprint (6-8 weeks) to build and ship a working AI workflow with measurable results, and a Partner retainer for businesses that want ongoing AI capability built into how they operate month over month.
What determines scope, and therefore investment, is the complexity of the problem: how many systems need to connect, what compliance requirements apply (especially relevant for our finance, healthcare, and legal clients), and whether you're validating an idea or scaling something already in production. A lean MVP looks very different from an enterprise-wide AI transformation, and pricing should reflect that reality, not a clock.
See our complete guide to how pricing works across every engagement type.
With 70-85% of organizations now adopting AI in some form, the real cost question isn't "what's the hourly rate" but "what does it take to get this right the first time." Book a call and we'll scope your project directly, or start with an Assessment to get clarity before committing to anything larger.
