Our 6-Step AI Development Process

  • 1. Initial Consultation (Free)

    We begin with a no-obligation consultation to understand your business, current challenges, and key objectives. This conversation helps us assess whether AI is a practical and valuable solution for your needs. Benefit: This step involves no commitment and is focused entirely on exploring potential. If we believe AI is not the right fit for your situation, we will let you know honestly—saving you time and investment.

  • 2. High-Level Solution Presentation (Free)

    Based on our initial conversation, we prepare a tailored presentation that outlines:
    Our understanding of your business problem
    A potential AI-driven solution
    An outline of the approach and required technologies
    Estimated costs and timelines
    A list of required data and resources
    Benefit: This gives you a clear and informed view of how an AI solution could add value to your business, before you make any financial commitment.

  • 3. Discovery and Proof of Concept (Paid)

    If you're ready to proceed, we move into a deeper discovery phase. This includes stakeholder workshops, data audits, and detailed project planning. During this phase, we also develop a small-scale prototype using real or sample data to validate feasibility.
    What’s Included:
    Requirement gathering sessions with your team
    Assessment of available data and its quality
    A detailed technical and delivery roadmap
    Development of a working prototype (Proof of Concept)
    Benefit: This phase reduces risk by validating assumptions early and ensures everyone is aligned before full-scale development begins.

  • 4.Full AI Solution Development (Paid)

    Once the proof of concept has been validated, we proceed with the full development of your AI solution. This includes building production-grade data pipelines, machine learning models, user interfaces, and integrating with your existing systems. Work is delivered in structured milestones. Benefit: You receive a robust, fully functional AI system custom-built for your business needs, with continuous updates, visibility, and opportunities to provide feedback at each stage.

  • 5. Production Deployment (Paid)

    We ensure a seamless transition from development to deployment. This includes full system integration, user acceptance testing (UAT), and staff training to ensure your team is comfortable using the new system.
    Benefit: Smooth implementation with minimal disruption, enabling your business to start realising value from day one of go-live.

  • 6. Ongoing Support and Optimisation (Optional)

    Post-deployment, we offer optional support and maintenance packages to ensure long-term system effectiveness. This includes monitoring model performance, retraining based on new data, and continuous technical support.
    Benefit: Your AI system stays accurate, secure, and aligned with your evolving business environment—ensuring sustained value over time.

Frequently Asked Question

We’ve answered the most common questions to help you clearly understand how our bulletproof AI development process works—from first consultation to full deployment.
Whether you’re curious about timelines, costs, data requirements, or ongoing support, this section will give you the clarity you need to move forward with confidence.

Still have questions? Our team is just a message away.

Is the initial consultation really free?

Yes, absolutely. The first consultation is 100% free and comes with no obligation. It’s a chance for us to understand your business, the challenges you’re facing, and whether AI can genuinely help. We’ll answer your questions, share examples, and explain the kinds of problems AI is best suited for. If we don’t believe AI is the right solution for your specific needs, we’ll be upfront and honest about it—saving you time and money.

After our initial discussion, we provide a tailored, high-level solution proposal based on what we’ve learned about your business. This includes:

  • A clear definition of the problem as we see it

  • Our proposed AI-based solution

  • An outline of the technology approach

  • Required data and resources

  • A ballpark estimate of cost and timeline

This phase is still free and gives you a transparent view of how your AI project might look in practice—before any financial commitment.

The cost depends on the scope and complexity of your business problem, but typically ranges from $5,000 to $20,000.
This includes:

  • Workshops with your team to define project requirements

  • A data audit to assess what’s usable

  • A project roadmap and technical plan

  • Development of a working prototype using real or sample data

These early stages are critical to the success of your AI project—especially for small to medium businesses.

Discovery Phase Benefits:

  • Clarifies business objectives and aligns your team

  • Identifies technical risks or data issues early

  • Produces a realistic timeline and cost estimate

  • Ensures clear expectations before full development

Proof of Concept (PoC) Benefits:

  • Validates feasibility with real-world data

  • Demonstrates potential value before big investment

  • Reduces risk of failure by allowing early feedback

  • Builds confidence for stakeholders to move forward

By the end of this stage, both parties have a shared understanding of the solution, and we can offer a fixed-price quote for full development, reducing surprises later.

Our full development process is milestone-based—meaning the work is broken into phases, and you only proceed to the next once you’re satisfied.
At each stage, we:

  • Share progress and working demos

  • Collect your feedback

  • Adjust plans if needed before continuing

This ensures full transparency, clear communication, and avoids scope creep. You maintain control and visibility throughout the build.

Yes, we provide optional support and maintenance packages tailored to your needs. This can include:

  • Ongoing monitoring of model performance

  • Scheduled model retraining as your data grows

  • Technical troubleshooting and updates

  • Feature enhancements and system scaling

This ensures your AI system stays accurate, secure, and aligned with your evolving business needs.

Absolutely. Data privacy and security are top priorities. We follow strict Australian data protection standards and best practices in encryption, access control, and storage.
Your data remains your property, and we’ll never use it for any purpose outside the agreed scope. If required, we can also help set up local or cloud-based storage solutions that meet your industry’s compliance standards.

Yes. We work with clients across Australia and even internationally. Our entire process—from consultation to deployment—can be delivered fully remotely through video calls, shared documentation, and online tools.
For local clients, we’re also happy to arrange in-person workshops and site visits as needed.
