Know the Cost Before You Commit

Published prices, fixed fees, stop any time. Three things that set our pricing apart from other AI consultancies in the UK.

Published Pricing

Most AI consultancies refuse to share pricing until they have you on a call. We publish our prices on every page. You know what things cost before you commit any time. Read our full pricing guide.

Fixed, Not Day-Rate

Day-rate billing creates a perverse incentive: the longer it takes, the more the consultant earns. Fixed-price aligns our interests with yours. We are rewarded for efficiency, not for dragging things out.

Stoppable at Any Stage

Each engagement is self-contained. Start with the £750 audit and stop there if it is enough. No obligation to continue to strategy or implementation. You are never locked into a long contract.

Pricing & Engagement FAQs

Why are your prices fixed and not day-rate? +

76% of UK businesses see high costs as a significant barrier to AI adoption (DSIT AI Adoption Research, 2025). Day-rate consulting creates a perverse incentive: the longer it takes, the more the consultant earns. Fixed-price engagements align our interests with yours: we are rewarded for efficiency, not for dragging things out. You know the total cost before we start.

What determines where I fall within a price range? +

It depends on your business size, the complexity of your operations, the number of departments involved, and the depth of the engagement. The free discovery call helps us understand your needs and give you a precise quote before anything starts. There are no surprise costs.

Do we have to do the audit before strategy or implementation? +

No, but we strongly recommend it. The audit de-risks everything that follows and often saves clients from investing in the wrong areas. If you already have a clear sense of what you need, we can start at the strategy or implementation stage, but the audit findings are incorporated into the early phase of any engagement regardless.

Can we get funding or grants for AI consulting? +

Possibly. There are various UK government and regional initiatives that support AI adoption and digital transformation for SMEs. We can discuss current options during the discovery call and help you identify whether any apply to your situation. Our reports are structured to support funding applications where relevant.
