All prices are in GBP and exclude VAT. Cloud infrastructure costs (AWS, Azure, GCP) are billed separately at cost.
1–2 weeks
6–12 weeks, scope-dependent
For multi-model or multi-team programmes
After your model goes live, pick a retainer that matches how actively the system needs tending. All retainers include model monitoring and drift alerts.
| Plan | Monthly fee | Engineering hours | Retraining runs | Reporting |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essentials | £1,200 | 8 hours | 1 per month | Monthly email summary |
| Standard | £2,800 | 20 hours | 2 per month | Weekly dashboard report |
| Premium | £5,500 | 40 hours | Weekly | Live dashboard + weekly call |
Unused engineering hours do not roll over. If you need extra hours in a given month, we bill them at £140/hour. Retainers are billed monthly with a three-month minimum commitment, cancellable with 30 days notice after that.
Model training and inference run on cloud GPU instances. For a single predictive analytics model, expect £150–£400 per month in compute. Computer vision models that process video in real time can cost £800–£2,000 per month depending on throughput. We pass these costs through at the rate the cloud provider charges, with no markup. During discovery we estimate monthly cloud spend so there are no surprises.
We want the financial side to be predictable, so here is exactly how we handle payments across every phase of a project.
Paid in full before work begins. The £4,500 fee is fixed regardless of how many meetings or data sources are involved. If we conclude that AI is not the right approach for your problem, you still receive the feasibility report and owe nothing further.
Split into three milestone payments. The first 40% is due at kick-off, 30% at proof-of-concept delivery, and the remaining 30% at production go-live. If the project scope changes mid-flight, we issue a change request with an updated price before doing any additional work. We have never surprised a client with an unplanned invoice.
Billed on the first of each month by direct debit or bank transfer. You receive an itemised report showing how many engineering hours were used, what retraining runs were performed, and any model performance metrics for the period.
We accept bank transfer (BACS or SWIFT), direct debit via GoCardless, and credit card payments through Stripe. International clients can pay in EUR or USD; we convert at the mid-market rate on the invoice date.
Describe your situation and we will recommend the right scope. No sales pitch, just a straight answer about what it will take and what it will cost.
