Decide right before you build with AI

If your project uses — or will use — AI, we help you choose the model, the architecture and the right way to implement it.

In plain words

We help you choose right before you spend: which AI model to use, how to build around it and what it will cost, in plain terms.

How it works

Example: Move the buttons and watch the recommendation change

Try another case. Illustrative: how we choose. Not a ranking of tools.

Goal
Priority

Illustrative recommendation. Case: Answer from your documents. Priority: Privacy. Model: Llama. How it is built: Assistant over your documents. Where it runs: Your own server. Estimated monthly cost: medium.

Step 1 of 4

Answer from your own documents, handle customers or analyze data. Everything follows from that.

Who it's for

  • Companies with a project already using AI that aren't sure they picked the right model or architecture.
  • Teams about to build with AI who want to settle the model, stack and costs before they invest.
  • Products where model costs or answer quality have become a problem.
  • Executives who need an independent technical opinion before signing with a vendor.

Who it's not for

  • If you need a slide deck to win over your board — we don't make decks; we put technical decisions in writing.
  • If you don't have a specific process or product for AI yet, start with our automation assessment instead.
  • If you already have an experienced AI team and the project is on track, you probably don't need us.

Not sure what you need? Tell us the problem and we'll tell you what to build — or whether you need to build anything at all.

AI consulting

What you get

  • A decision you can defend

    You know which model to use and why, backed by tests on your own data rather than generic benchmarks.

  • The real running cost, up front

    You know what the system will cost to operate each month at your volume before committing a budget.

  • A clear path forward

    You get a 90-day roadmap that your team, we or another vendor can execute.

  • A straight verdict

    Go, redirect or stop. If AI doesn't make sense for the project, we'll say so.

  • A written architecture decision document
  • A model comparison run on a sample of your own data
  • A monthly cost-to-operate estimate
  • A diagram of the recommended architecture and stack
  • A 90-day roadmap
  • A verdict: go, redirect or stop
  • A handover session with your team

How we work with you

  1. Project context

    Days 1–2

    We sit down with your team to understand the goal, the data you have and your constraints on budget, privacy and response time.

  2. Tests on your data

    Week 1

    We run the candidate models on a real sample from your operation and measure quality, speed and cost.

  3. Architecture and costs

    Week 2

    We design the architecture, choose the stack and work out what the system will cost to run each month.

  4. Handover and verdict

    End of week 2

    We walk your team through the document, the 90-day roadmap and our verdict.

Payment terms
By milestones: 40% to start, 30% at the midpoint, 30% at handover.

What moves the price

  • How many processes, screens or integrations it covers
  • Which systems it connects to: CRM, ERP, accounting, payments
  • Volume: messages, documents or products per month
  • How fast you need it

Websites and stores: a fixed-price proposal. Software and AI: the budget comes out of the assessment.

AI architecture review

A two-week review that ends in a written decision document and a clear verdict. It has a cost, set by the difficulty of the case, and it is fully credited if we go on to build the project with you.

View service: Automation assessment
Do you always recommend the same AI vendor?

No. We're vendor-agnostic: we compare commercial and open-source models and recommend whichever performs best on your data, at your volume and within your budget.

What data do you need for the review?

A representative sample of what the system will process: conversations, documents, tickets or records. We sign an NDA, and for sensitive data we work with anonymized samples or inside your own infrastructure.

What if the verdict is stop?

Then you've avoided building something that wouldn't work. You keep the document and the test results, and you know what would have to change to revisit the project.

Do we have to hire you for the build?

No. The document is written so whoever you choose can execute it. If you build it with us, the review fee is credited to the project.
