9 questions answered
01
How much does AI automation cost?
Projects typically range from €3,000 for a focused single-workflow automation to €25,000+ for complex multi-agent systems with custom data pipelines. We provide a fixed-price proposal after the discovery call so there are no surprises.
02
Do you charge per project or on a retainer?
Both. Most clients start with a project engagement, then move to a retainer for ongoing optimisation, monitoring, and new feature development. Retainers start from €1,500/month.
03
What is your minimum engagement?
Our minimum project engagement is 2 weeks. We don’t take on one-day consulting calls — every engagement ends with a deployed, working system.
04
Do you offer a free consultation or audit?
Yes. We offer a free 30-minute discovery call where we review your workflows, identify your top automation opportunities, and give you an honest assessment — no commitment required.
05
How do you price custom AI agents?
Based on complexity: number of integrations, volume of data processed, level of autonomy required, and ongoing infrastructure costs. We provide a detailed breakdown in every proposal.
06
What is the ROI of AI automation?
Our clients typically see 40–70% reduction in time spent on automated tasks, with payback periods of 2–4 months for most projects. We calculate expected ROI as part of the discovery process before you commit.
07
How quickly will we see a return on investment?
Most clients recover their investment within 2–4 months of deployment. Simpler, high-volume automations (like support ticket handling) often pay back within weeks.
08
Are there ongoing costs after deployment?
Yes — primarily infrastructure costs (API usage, cloud hosting, database). These are typically €100–€500/month depending on volume, and are separate from our retainer. We help you optimise these costs as part of ongoing support.
09
What’s included in a discovery call?
A 30-minute session where we review your current workflows, identify the top 3 automation opportunities, estimate ROI for each, and recommend a starting point. You’ll leave with a clear picture of what’s possible — even if you don’t proceed with us.
