AI ConsultingKnowing What to Build — and What Not to.

AI consulting for the decisions that decide whether the AI is worth building — use case selection, model selection, build vs buy, the architecture, the data, the eval, the cost, the ROI, written as a brief the team and the board can act on, not a slide deck.

Overview

AI consulting is the brief before the build

AI consulting is the work of deciding what to build before the build starts. The output is a written brief: the use case, the model, the data, the architecture, the eval, the cost, the ROI, the risks, the next three months. The brief is the deliverable, not a slide deck.

We do AI consulting as a written engagement, with the use case selection, the model selection, the build vs buy analysis, the architecture, the data, the eval, the cost and the ROI as the output. The brief is the artefact the team and the board can act on, with the assumptions and the trade-offs named.

This is the wrong engagement if the team has already decided what to build and just needs it delivered. The right answer there is an AI development engagement, not a consulting one.

  • Written Brief — A written brief the team and the board can act on, not a slide deck.
  • Trade-Offs Named — The trade-offs, the assumptions and the risks named, not glossed over.
  • Build vs Buy — A build vs buy analysis, with the recommendation the team and the board can act on.
  • ROI Tied — The ROI tied to the business outcome, not the technology hype.

Questions we get asked

Something not covered here? Ask us directly.

AI strategy is the 6–12 month plan. AI consulting is the specific decision — use case, model, build vs buy, architecture, cost, ROI. The strategy is the longer engagement; the consulting is the specific question. The two overlap, and we will say so on the call.

A written brief, with the use case, the model, the data, the architecture, the eval, the cost, the ROI, the risks and the next three months. The brief is the artefact the team and the board can act on, with the assumptions and the trade-offs named. The brief is not a slide deck.

A focused consulting engagement (use case selection, build vs buy) is 2–4 weeks. A broader engagement (architecture review, cost review, readiness assessment) is 4–8 weeks. The timeline is set after the first call, not before, because the scope depends on the questions.

Yes, when the team wants us to. The brief is the deliverable of the consulting engagement. The implementation is a separate engagement, with the brief as the input. The two are independent — you can take the brief elsewhere, or we can implement it.
