Ask AI about this service
Our advisors are the engineers who build and operate AI systems, so the advice reflects what survives production. We assess feasibility, data readiness, and risk, recommend an architecture and a deployment model, and give you a plan you can take to your board, with or without us.
What an engagement delivers.
Feasibility and ROI
Which use cases are viable with your data, and what outcome each is worth.
Reference architecture
Components, deployment model, and integration points sized to your environment.
Risk and governance
Data protection, model risk, and compliance considerations built into the plan.
Build, buy, or partner
Honest comparison of options, with total cost and the skills each one needs.
When to bring us in.
Advisory is most valuable before architecture and vendor decisions are locked in.
Pilot rescue
A pilot that demoed well but will not scale: we diagnose and re-plan.
Vendor selection
Independent evaluation of platforms and models against your requirements.
Board-ready roadmap
A costed, staged plan with risks and dependencies stated plainly.

Fixed-scope project. A defined deliverable at a fixed price and date. Payment is released as each milestone is accepted. The same terms are written into every statement of work for ai consulting, so there is nothing to discover later.

You fund accepted work, never a promise.
Drag to move through the engagement. Money is released only as each gate is accepted, so what you have paid never runs ahead of what you can use.

When something goes wrong, who pays?
Every project meets surprises. What matters is who carries them. Pick one and compare how three commercial models respond.
The hours keep running while the team investigates. You pay for the surprise.
A change request is raised, usually priced at a premium and argued over.
We verified it before quoting, and the risk register held an allowance. Any overrun beyond it is ours.
It is absorbed into the hours. The date slips quietly and you learn at the invoice.
A change fee arrives, often as a lump sum with little explanation.
You get a written amendment with cost and date impact. Nothing starts until you approve it.
You pay for the difference. The estimate was only ever a guess.
The vendor reopens scope to recover margin, or cuts corners to hold it.
The price stays fixed. The overrun is ours to carry, and you see the budget position at every demo.
It is billed on the calendar anyway. The status report says "on track".
The invoice follows the date in the contract, whether or not the work is done.
Payment for that milestone is held until it passes the written criteria. You do not fund a miss.
One price, built in the open.
The proposal itemises every feature or milestone, names its assumptions, and keeps a risk register with allowances. Allowances you never use are not billed.

01What is AI Consulting?
AI consulting for enterprises and PSUs: feasibility, architecture, vendor-neutral technology choices, and build-or-buy decisions from engineers who ship.
02How quickly does AI Consulting deliver a first result?
A decision-ready assessment in 2 weeks. Typical milestones are Day 3: scope, data, and constraints confirmed; Day 10: feasibility and architecture options with costs; Day 14: recommendation and plan, yours with or without us. Exact dates are written into the statement of work before you commit.
03How is AI Consulting priced?
Fixed-scope project: one price per milestone, with a first-release date, itemised in a statement of work within five working days of scoping. Payment is released as each milestone is accepted against written criteria. Cloud hosting, licences, and model usage are passed through at cost. International clients are invoiced in USD. The main price drivers are number of use cases assessed, depth of data-readiness review, stakeholders to interview, regulatory regimes to assess.
04What happens if the scope changes or the work overruns?
The price stays fixed. A change to scope is quoted in writing, with its cost and date impact, and starts only after you approve it. If our own estimate was wrong, the overrun is ours, not yours. You see the budget position against milestones at every demo.
05Who owns the code, models, and documentation?
You do. Code, models, and documentation transfer to you on successful handover. Code, architecture documents, deployment scripts, and credentials transfer on payment, with no licence back.
06How are security and compliance handled?
Risk, privacy, and regulatory fit are assessed for every option, so the recommendation is one you can defend.
07Do you work with clients outside India?
Yes. We are based in Noida and work with clients around the world, delivering remotely. Calls and demos are scheduled in your time zone, proposals and contracts are in English, international clients are invoiced in USD, and every engagement follows the same fixed-scope terms regardless of where you are.
08When would you decline to fix a price?
The assessment is fixed in fee and duration. Its output is a plan that is yours with or without us, so there is nothing to lock you in.
Decide with evidence, not enthusiasm.
A short advisory engagement costs a fraction of a failed build. Book a call and we will outline what an assessment would cover for your case.
