Small Business AI
Let’s find the right starting point.
Answer a few quick questions in your own words. You don’t need to know the technical solution.
Have we worked together before?
Yes, I’m an existing client
No, this would be my first engagement
Where are you with AI today?
I’m completely new to AI
I’ve experimented with tools like ChatGPT
I already use AI in my business
My team uses AI, but we need help improving it
What are you hoping AI could help you accomplish?
Which option sounds closest to what you need?
Choose the closest match for an initial pricing guide.
Everyday AI tools Chatbots, writing, prompts, staff training, or improving tools you already use
AI that takes action Automated workflows, agents, image or voice tools, and recommendations
Advanced or data-heavy work Forecasting, analytics, machine learning, or custom integrations
I’m not sure yet That’s completely fine—we can work it out together
Generative AI — $100/hour A practical starting point for chatbots, writing tools, prompt workflows, training, and adoption.
Applied AI — $150/hour For systems that take action, automate multiple steps, or process more than plain text.
Advanced AI & Analytics — $250/hour Specialized work is generally scoped and priced as a project.
Discovery Consultation — $250 flat Up to two hours, with $125 credited toward a project that moves forward.
An initial guide—not a project quote.
I’ll review your goals with you before recommending an approach. I’m also happy to offer a flat project fee based on the estimated hours required. Before any work begins, your Statement of Work will describe the scope, deliverables, timeline, assumptions, and agreed pricing.
If a project involves more than one type of AI work, each portion will be itemized at its applicable rate—or incorporated into the agreed flat project fee—in the Statement of Work.
What would you like to do next?
