Michigan AI Consulting FAQ

Common questions about hiring an AI consultant in Michigan

How much does an AI consultant cost in Michigan?

Our engagements start at $2,500 for a 2-week audit. Implementation projects typically range from $7,500 to $15,000. Ongoing fractional support starts at $5,000 per month. Michigan employers may also qualify for Going PRO grants that cover up to $3,500 per employee for AI training.

What size companies do you work with?

We primarily work with small and mid-sized businesses in Michigan, typically companies with 10 to 500 employees. Our approach is designed for organizations that want practical AI solutions but do not have the budget for a Big Four consulting engagement.

How long does a typical AI consulting project take?

Most projects run 6 to 8 weeks from kickoff to delivery. We often have a working prototype within the first 3 weeks. Ongoing advisory engagements are month-to-month with no long-term contracts required.

Do you work on-site in Michigan?

Yes. We are based in Southfield and regularly meet clients in person across metro Detroit, Ann Arbor, and surrounding areas. We also support fully remote engagements and hybrid arrangements depending on what works best for your team.

What AI tools and technologies do you work with?

We work across the full modern AI stack including OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, open-source LLMs, Python, TypeScript, cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), and data tools like Supabase, BigQuery, and Power BI. We recommend the right tools for your specific needs rather than pushing a single vendor.
