Who this is for

The situations this actually solves

If none of these describe you, say so on the call and we'll tell you what would help instead.

You have an AI feature on the roadmap and nobody to build it

The product decision is made. What's missing is someone who has actually shipped retrieval, evaluation and guardrails rather than following a tutorial.

Your prototype works and won't survive real users

The demo was convincing, the costs are unpredictable and the accuracy is unmeasured. Getting from prototype to production is a different skill from getting to prototype.

AI hiring in the US is brutal right now

Salaries are high, the good people have offers, and a bad hire in this area is expensive to unwind. Buying the capability for a defined project is a lower-risk way in.

You need a straight answer about whether AI even helps

Sometimes the honest answer is that a rule and a database solve it better. We'd rather tell you that early than build something impressive that doesn't earn its running cost.

Engagement models

Four ways to work with us

Fixed-scope where the outcome is defined, dedicated capacity where the roadmap is ongoing.

Fixed-scope AI build

A defined agent, chatbot or automation, quoted as a fixed number and delivered against it.

Published prices — chatbots from $299, agents from $899

Best for A specific capability with a clear finish line.

Embedded AI engineer

An engineer working only on your product, in your repository, at your standup, on monthly terms.

Monthly terms, no annual lock-in

Best for An ongoing roadmap rather than a single feature.

AI audit and roadmap

We review what you have or what you're planning and come back with an honest assessment of cost, feasibility and where the real wins are.

Free initial audit call

Best for Deciding what to build before committing a budget to it.

Project prices are our published prices. Dedicated engagements are quoted per arrangement because the honest answer depends on seniority and duration — you'll have the number in writing within 24 hours of the scoping call.

Who you get

The people on your engagement

Named people who stay on your work — we don't rotate engineers between clients to fill utilisation.

AI engineer

Builds the agent, retrieval and evaluation, and owns the accuracy numbers.

Backend engineer

The tool integrations, permissions and infrastructure the AI acts through.

Tech lead

Architecture, cost modelling and delivery accountability on larger builds.

QA

Adversarial testing — trying to make the system behave badly before your users do.

Terms

The things worth getting in writing

These are the same on every engagement. Ask any vendor you're considering the same questions.

NDA before the first real conversation

Your paper or ours, signed the same day at no cost. We don't need to see anything sensitive to scope an engagement.

Full IP assignment

Everything produced is yours from the moment it's written — code, designs, documentation. Assigned in the contract, not promised on a call.

Your repository, your accounts

Work lands in your GitHub, your cloud account, your app store listings from day one. Nothing is staged in ours and handed over later.

Monthly terms, not annual lock-ins

Scale up, scale down or stop with notice. A contract you can't leave removes our incentive to keep earning it.

Direct access to the engineers

Slack or WhatsApp with the people writing the code. No account manager relaying questions and losing the detail.

Named people, not interchangeable seats

You meet who you're getting and they stay on your work. We don't rotate people between clients to fill utilisation.

How it starts

From first call to working output

Something real in your repository inside the first week — not a ramp-up plan.

01

Scoping call

What you're building, what your existing team already covers, and what skills are genuinely missing. 30 minutes, free, and we'll tell you if you don't need us.

02

Proposal in 24 hours

The people, the skills, the engagement shape and the number — in writing, before you commit anything.

03

Meet the team

Talk to the actual engineers before you sign. If the fit is wrong, that's the cheapest possible moment to find out.

04

NDA, contract, access

Paperwork signed, your repository and accounts set up, tooling and communication channels agreed.

05

First week, working output

Something real in your repository inside the first week — not a ramp-up plan. You should be able to see progress, not read about it.

Prefer a project package?

If your scope is defined, a project package is usually cheaper and simpler than a dedicated engagement. Every price below is published.

FAQ

AI Developers — your questions answered

What does hiring an AI developer cost?+
We quote per engagement rather than publishing an hourly rate, because the work varies enormously. As anchors, our fixed-scope builds start at $299 for a chatbot and $899 for an agent. A US AI engineer costs $130,000–$220,000 a year before benefits, which is the comparison most clients are actually making.
How do I know they're any good?+
Ask for the evaluation harness. Anyone can wire up an API call; the people who have shipped this in production are the ones who measure accuracy on real data, handle the failure paths and can tell you what it costs per thousand tasks. That's the question that separates the two groups quickly.
Will you tell us if AI isn't the right answer?+
Yes, and we do regularly. A lot of what gets pitched as an AI problem is a data problem or a process problem, and solving it with a rule is cheaper, faster and more reliable. We'd rather lose that scope than build something you resent paying to run.
Who owns what you build?+
You do — code, prompts, evaluation sets, infrastructure and accounts, all in your name and handed over. We use enterprise API endpoints that don't train on your data, and we sign your NDA before you share anything.
Can you work with our existing engineering team?+
That's the most common arrangement. Our engineer joins your repository, your standup and your review process. We're not trying to own the whole system — usually we're adding a capability your team then maintains, and we document it so they can.
