The AI Confusion Problem

The AI landscape has exploded — GPT-4.1, Claude Sonnet, Gemini 2.5, Llama 4, Azure AI Foundry, OpenClaw — and every vendor claims to be the best.

Most companies spend months testing tools that were never right for them, overpaying for capabilities they don't need, or under-investing in models that could transform their workflow.

We've done the research. We've run the benchmarks. We've deployed the integrations. You don't have to.

200+ implementations across healthcare, finance, retail, and tech. We've seen what works — and more importantly, what doesn't — across every major industry.

Significant Cost Savings

Choosing the right AI model for your workload can save 60–80% in monthly API costs compared to blindly defaulting to the most expensive option.

Always Up-to-Date

AI evolves every month. Our team continuously tests new model releases, benchmarks, and pricing changes so your strategy stays optimal — not last year's best practice.

Common Questions

That's exactly what we help with. The right model depends on your use case (text, code, vision, reasoning), data privacy requirements, budget, and existing tech stack. Our advisory process starts with a structured needs analysis to map these factors to the best-fit model. There's rarely a single correct answer — it's about trade-offs.

Both give you access to GPT-4.1, GPT-4o, and other OpenAI models, but they're very different products. Azure AI Foundry is an enterprise platform with governance, compliance certifications (SOC2, HIPAA, ISO27001), private network deployment, and deep Azure integration. The OpenAI API is simpler and faster to start with, but lacks enterprise compliance features. For most regulated industries, Azure is the better choice. For startups and non-regulated use cases, the OpenAI API is often cheaper and faster to deploy.

Simple API integrations can be done in days. More complex deployments involving Azure AI Foundry, custom data pipelines, or self-hosted open-source models typically take 2–6 weeks. Enterprise implementations with security reviews, compliance work, and team training run 6–12 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline estimate in every engagement.

Yes. Our Professional package includes 30 days of email Q&A support. Enterprise clients get 3 months of priority support. We also offer retainer arrangements for teams that want a dedicated AI advisor on call. The AI landscape changes fast — having someone monitor model updates and pricing changes on your behalf pays for itself.

Absolutely. Fine-tuning is often the right move for specialized domains (legal, medical, financial, code in specific frameworks). We evaluate whether fine-tuning is worth the cost vs. prompt engineering or RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation), which is cheaper in most cases. When fine-tuning is the right call, we scope and execute the entire project.

Most AI failures come from mismatched expectations, the wrong model for the job, or poor integration. Our process starts by understanding your actual use case and defining concrete success metrics before recommending anything. We've helped teams recover from failed AI investments and turn them into working systems. The diagnostic work we do upfront is what prevents these failures.

Yes — our client base is global. We work with teams across Europe, North America, and the Asia-Pacific region. We accommodate different time zones for Teams sessions and understand data residency requirements in the EU (GDPR) and other jurisdictions. For EU clients, data sovereignty often means Azure European regions or self-hosted open-source models — we know how to navigate this.

We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on Professional packages if you're not satisfied with the strategy report. We'd rather you get value from the engagement than keep your money. Enterprise projects are scoped individually with milestone-based payments, so you're never paying for work that hasn't been delivered.
