AI Projects

Start with a Proof of Concept

AI is unpredictable. We recommend spending roughly 10% of your total budget on a focused proof of concept before committing to a full build.

De-risk before you scale

AI projects carry unique technical uncertainty. Unlike traditional software, you can't always predict whether a model will perform well enough until you test it with real data and real workflows.

That's why we recommend starting every AI engagement with a focused proof of concept — a small, time-boxed build that answers the biggest questions before you commit significant budget.

  • Validate the hardest technical assumptions first
  • Get a working prototype in 6–8 weeks
  • Informed go/no-go decision with real data
  • Full investment carries significantly less risk
