AI Consultancy

AI advice from someone who still ships.

Practical AI guidance for founders and SME teams — where it pays off, what to build versus buy, and how to stay the right side of the EU AI Act. Counsel from someone who builds it too, so the advice survives contact with production.

This is larger than one package. A 10-Hour Block (€1,575, saves €175) covers the core; the remaining ~8h run at €175. Past this size we would scope it as its own project, so you get a fixed shape.

Honest by design — real ranges from real hours at €175/hour. When a package costs less than the hours, we recommend it. No server, no AI: plain arithmetic you can check.

What we advise on

AI first — and the wider picture around it.

The work leads with AI strategy, adoption, and EU AI Act readiness. When the question reaches past AI — architecture, product, the team — there’s an operator’s read on that too.

If you already run GDPR properly, most of the AI Act is closer than it looks — from GDPR to the EU AI Act maps what carries over and what genuinely doesn’t. And because we use AI in the work itself, we publish which agents we use and where.

When the advice turns into work, it moves to one of the four practices — automation & practical AI, custom software, search & AI visibility, or ongoing support on a monthly retainer. The advice is charged separately from the build, and we will tell you when you do not need the advice at all.

01

AI strategy & adoption

Where AI actually pays off — evaluated from the outcome backwards, not the hype forwards.

02

EU AI Act & compliance

AI Act, GDPR, and NIS2 readiness you can act on — the same depth behind Klariad.

03

AI enablement & training

Get your team fluent and your guardrails in place — practical, not theoretical.

04

Technology & product audit

What to build, what to buy, and what it really costs — before you commit a quarter to it.

05

Roadmap & architecture

A sequence that survives quarterly pressure, and the system design to carry it.

06

Founder & leadership sparring

A second operator in the room for the calls that don’t have a clean answer.

Engagements

Four ways to bring us in.

Start with half an hour on the one thing that is stuck. Keep us on a monthly AI retainer. Take a fixed-fee opportunity audit. Or bank a block of hours and draw them down for a year. Every hour is advisory or light hands-on — larger builds become their own custom software project, quoted separately.

How the hours work

Simple, honest time.

One rate, one definition of an hour, and no surprises on the invoice. Here’s exactly how the time is counted.

On why we bill this way at all — what custom software actually costs a small business sets out the case for hours you can watch, and gives you five checks for reading anyone else’s quote.

01

One rate — €175/hour

Advisory and light hands-on alike. Larger builds are scoped and quoted as a separate project.

02

Retainer hours roll over once

Unused retainer hours carry to the next month, then expire — a quiet month is never wasted.

03

Blocks last a full year

Your 10-hour block is valid 365 days from purchase. Draw it down whenever you need, no monthly commitment.

04

Extra hours at the same rate

Need more than your retainer covers? Extra hours bill at the standard €175 — no premium, no penalty.
