SCOPE

What AI Implementation Costs — And What Drives the Price

The short answer: we publish our AI prices. The table on this page gives each service a starting price, the usual range, a monthly fee and a duration — from AI chatbots to AI agents, ERP integration and EU AI Act compliance. Within the range, scope sets the price: the number of use-cases, the systems to connect and how ready your data is. The amounts in the table are indicative; you get the exact amount in a written offer.

What drives the cost

Six factors decide where a project lands within the range:

  • Scope and number of use-cases. One well-defined workflow — say, automated quote generation — costs far less than a programme spanning support, sales and operations at the same time.
  • System integrations. Reading and writing data in your CRM, ERP, ticketing or custom databases is where much of the engineering effort lives. More systems and older interfaces mean more work.
  • Data readiness. Clean, accessible data shortens delivery; scattered spreadsheets, PDFs and undocumented tables add a preparation stage before any AI can be trusted.
  • Off-the-shelf or custom. Configuring a proven platform is cheaper and faster than building agents tuned to your exact process.
  • Compliance and governance. GDPR, the EU AI Act, audit trails, data residency and human-in-the-loop controls add necessary — and real — cost in regulated sectors.
  • Running and support. Monitoring, maintenance, support and optimisation are covered by a monthly fee, not a large upfront figure.

Three steps of working together

We work in three steps. Each has a defined scope, a clear result and a price in a written offer, and you can stop after any one of them.

1. Pilot — one process, fixed scope

One high-impact use-case delivered as a working solution, with a measurable success metric and a clear go/no-go decision at the end. The pilot carries the price and duration of the service it belongs to, most often an AI chatbot or an AI agent for one process.

2. Implementation — production rollout

We take the validated pilot into production: integrations with your CRM, ERP and other systems, security and access controls, staff training and KPI reporting. The price depends on the number of systems and processes and is in the offer before work starts.

3. Running and maintenance — monitoring, optimisation and support

Reliable operation, ongoing tuning and new use-cases, for a monthly fee. The cost of the AI model depends on the number of requests and conversations, so the offer states it for your volume.

The ROI: what you get back

Cost only matters against return. Because a pilot targets a single high-volume, high-cost process first, its payback can be checked before the wider rollout begins. We agree the target metric — hours saved, cost per ticket, faster cycle time — before we start, so the return is measured, not assumed.

Grants for digitalisation

National and EU calls for digitalisation open from time to time, and eligibility depends on the call, company size and sector, so it is never guaranteed. When a call is open, we help describe the technical part of the project during scoping; the funding body decides on eligibility.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does an AI chatbot for customer support cost?

The starting price, the range and the monthly fee are in the table on this page. A simple chatbot on your knowledge base sits at the bottom of the range; one connected to your CRM, ticketing and billing sits nearer the top. You get the exact amount in a written offer after a short scoping call.

How much does an AI pilot cost?

A pilot carries the price of the service it belongs to, from the table on this page — most often an AI chatbot or an AI agent for one process. It focuses on the one use-case with the biggest impact and ends with a measurable result and an ROI estimate, so it is the safest way to test the value before a bigger investment.

Are the prices in the table final?

No, they are indicative; you get the final price in a written offer, once the scope is known. The table shows ranges because one service name covers projects of different scope — use-cases, integrations, data readiness and compliance requirements. If you ask for something outside the scope during the project, you first get an offer for that change.

When will I see a return on AI?

It depends on the process and the scope; on automated processes operating costs usually fall. A well-chosen pilot pays back faster because it targets the bottleneck with the highest cost.

Can a grant cover part of the cost?

Sometimes. National and EU calls for digitalisation open from time to time, and eligibility depends on the call, company size and sector, so it is not guaranteed. When a call is open, we help describe the technical part of the project during scoping.

What does the implementation price include?

The production rollout includes integrations with your systems, security and GDPR controls, staff training, handover and impact measurement. Running after launch — EU servers, monitoring, maintenance and support — is covered by the monthly fee in the table.
