Fractional AI Consultant
Senior AI strategy and implementation leadership, engaged part-time — the expertise of a full-time AI hire without the overhead.
Growing businesses need serious AI expertise but can't justify a $250k+ full-time AI hire. A fractional AI consultant gives you ongoing strategic direction, architecture oversight, and hands-on implementation — structured around a monthly retainer that scales with your needs. We serve as your embedded AI function: running assessments, directing engineers, shipping systems, and reporting to leadership on AI ROI.
What We Build & Implement
Ongoing Strategic Direction
We attend leadership meetings, advise on AI investments, and keep your AI roadmap aligned with business priorities — without the politics of a full-time hire.
Architecture & Engineering Oversight
We design AI systems and either build them ourselves or direct your internal engineers — ensuring the architecture is correct before development begins.
Vendor & Tool Evaluation
We evaluate AI vendors, SaaS tools, and model providers objectively — filtering out hype and recommending only what will deliver measurable value for your use case.
Implementation & Delivery
We don't just advise — we ship. Each engagement includes hands-on implementation of at least one high-priority AI system per quarter.
How We Work
Kickoff & AI Audit
We spend the first two weeks auditing your current workflows, technology stack, and data assets to build a prioritized AI opportunity map.
Roadmap & Retainer Scope
We define a 90-day roadmap with specific deliverables, and set up a monthly retainer structure with a dedicated number of consulting and implementation hours.
Monthly Execution Cycles
Each month includes strategy sessions with leadership, hands-on system building, and a written progress report covering ROI realized and next-cycle priorities.
Quarterly Review & Renewal
Every quarter we review results against the original ROI projections, adjust scope as your business evolves, and define the next 90-day initiatives.
