AI consulting and development services
I build, fix and lead AI products: RAG, LLM agents and the SaaS around them. Each offer below has a fixed shape and a typical budget, and the price is in writing before work starts.
Offers
Build an AI SaaS MVP that holds up in production
I build AI products from an empty repo to production in 8–14 weeks: retrieval, model calls, multi-tenancy, metering and billing. My own multi-tenant AI support platform, Evoriqa, went from first commit to live in about two months.
- Length
- 8–14 weeks
- Typical budget
- $15k–$40k
RAG development for a product you already run
I add retrieval, an AI agent or an LLM feature to a product you already run, usually in 2–5 weeks. Answers come from your own content and say where they came from, the way AI PDF Chat cites the PDF and page.
- Length
- 2–5 weeks
- Typical budget
- $4k–$10k
Fractional CTO for AI startups and SaaS teams
A fractional CTO, or a senior AI engineer, on retainer: the calls a CTO would make, without hiring one full-time. On most projects I am the only senior engineer, and I run my own AI SaaS in production, Evoriqa.
- Length
- Retainer
- Typical budget
- $4k–$8k a month
RAG and LLM cost audit: accuracy and cost per request
In 5–10 days I measure what your AI feature costs per request and how often it is right, then show which changes move both. On a CPA firm's review tool that measurement put a review at $0.24–0.28 and found a setting with more findings at 63% of the cost.
- Length
- 5–10 days
- Typical budget
- $1.5k–$3k
Take an AI prototype to production
I take over half-built AI codebases: 2 weeks to stabilise, then ongoing work to extend them. The usual gaps are the same ones: no fallback when the API times out, no way to measure correctness, and nothing anyone can deploy.
- Length
- 2 weeks to stabilise, then ongoing
- Typical budget
- $3k–$6k
Modernise your SaaS without a rewrite
I modernise SaaS products that have become hard to change, usually in 4–12 weeks, without pausing feature work. I start by learning why the system behaves the way it does, then change the parts that slow you down, one release at a time.
- Length
- 4–12 weeks
- Typical budget
- $5k–$20k
How an engagement runs
- 01
You email
Say what you're building, how far along it is, your budget and your timeline. The draft already asks.
- 02
I reply within 24 hours
With questions, or a time for a call.
- 03
A short call
We find the smallest version worth building, or agree not to build it.
- 04
A written plan and quote
Model choice, retrieval design, how output gets checked, and a cost and speed budget, in writing.
- 05
A demo every week
Something you can click every week, not a reveal at the end.
- 06
Launch and handover
A codebase the next engineer can read, on your accounts. The code and the rights to it are yours.
Tell me what you’re building and where it’s stuck.
I’ll tell you the cleanest path forward, including if it’s “don’t build that.”
