2. Managing project deliverables and timelines. Our approach: direct access to the founder and lead developer. This directly addresses the way consulting professionals actually work.
3. Creating and sending professional proposals. Our approach: working prototypes within the first week. This directly addresses the way consulting professionals actually work.

Each of these can be customised to your specific consulting workflows. We scope the exact features you need during a free consultation.
What Consulting Businesses Can Expect
We measure success by real business outcomes, not feature lists. For consulting businesses, the key metrics are:
Billable utilisation rate: We set up tracking from day one so you can see the impact in real numbers.
Proposal conversion rate: We set up tracking from day one so you can see the impact in real numbers.
Client retention: We set up tracking from day one so you can see the impact in real numbers.
Tech adoption in consulting is at the high level. Consulting is already a tech-savvy industry. The businesses that stand out are the ones with custom tools built specifically for their operations, not the ones using the same platforms as everyone else.
Typical investment: $1000-3000. Most consulting clients see measurable ROI within the first month.
How We Work with Consulting Clients
Discovery. You tell us about your consulting business: what is working, what is not, and what you wish you had. We ask about your current tools, team size, and daily workflows.
Scoping and quote. We define exactly what we will build and send you a fixed-price quote. No hourly rates. For consulting projects, this usually falls within $1000-3000.
Build. We build your solution, typically within 2-6 weeks. You talk directly to our founder and lead engineer. No project managers or middlemen.
Launch and handover. We deploy, walk your team through everything, and provide ongoing support. You own all the code and data.

What is the process for getting AI Development built for my Consulting business?

What features should a AI Development have for Consulting?
The features depend on your specific needs, but for Consulting businesses we typically recommend starting with the essentials and adding from there. We will help you prioritise what matters most during the scoping process.
What types of AI do you actually use?
It depends entirely on the problem. For text and language tasks, we use large language models like GPT-4 and Claude. For image recognition or document processing, we use computer vision models. For predictions and recommendations, we build custom ML pipelines. We pick the right tool for the job rather than forcing everything through a chatbot.
How do you handle data privacy and security?
We take this seriously. Your data stays in Australia where possible using Australian cloud regions. We never use your business data to train public models. All AI integrations use enterprise-grade APIs with encryption in transit and at rest. We can also work with on-premise deployments if your compliance requirements demand it.
