The spec.

The build, stage by stage. This is what the design phase papers and prices.

01TriggerYour data + event. Whatever kicks off the work in your business.
02The readCustom model logic. Purpose-built reasoning for your exact problem.
03The writeYour stack / API. It plugs into the systems you already run.
04The handoffAction in your product. A real result, owned by you, end to end.

You own the build. The workflow, the integrations, and the credentials live in your accounts, not ours. Documented, handed over, yours.

Fixed price. Fixed date.

01FusionA Fusion Workshop. Your team and ours, one room, the workflow on the whiteboard. You leave with the plan whether or not you hire us.
02DesignWe spec the build: every trigger, every integration, every handoff. It ends with a fixed price and a live date.
03BuildThe first workflow is live in weeks; a full deployment runs three months to a year. 10% to start, 80% across the build, 10% at handover.
04RunIt runs in your accounts under your credentials. Keep us on support, or take the keys.

The walk-away: If automation will not pay for itself in your operation, we say so at the workshop, and you keep the map.

What we need from you: a decision-maker in the workshop, system access by week one, and honest answers about how the work really flows.

Straight answers.

How much does custom AI development cost?

Our engagements are fixed price, and full deployments typically range from $1 million to over $20 million depending on scope. Every engagement starts with a Fusion Workshop, a fixed-price working session that produces a detailed scope, a ranked roadmap, and an exact quote for the first build before you commit. The number is in writing before we start, and any change is priced and signed before we build it, so there are no surprises.

How long does custom AI development take?

Timeline depends on complexity, but most projects follow a predictable pattern: 1-2 weeks for discovery and planning, 2-4 weeks for proof of concept, and 4-12 weeks for full development and deployment. Simple AI integrations can be completed in as little as 3-4 weeks total, while complex applications may take 3-6 months. We use agile development practices with regular check-ins and deliverables, so you see progress throughout and can provide feedback that shapes the outcome.

Will I own the code and AI models you build?

Yes. All custom code, trained models, and documentation created for your project are your intellectual property. We provide complete source code, model weights, training data configurations, and deployment documentation. You are free to maintain, modify, or extend the software independently if you choose. We also offer ongoing maintenance and support plans for clients who prefer us to manage updates, monitoring, and continuous improvement.

What technologies and AI frameworks do you work with?

We work with the full spectrum of modern AI technologies including Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, and Hugging Face for machine learning; OpenAI, Anthropic, and open-weight LLMs for language AI; LangChain and LangGraph for agents and retrieval-augmented generation; computer vision frameworks; and cloud platforms including AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure for deployment. We select technologies based on what best serves your specific use case, performance requirements, and long-term maintainability, not based on trends or preferences.

What makes you different from other AI development agencies?

Most AI agencies are integrators: they wire a large language model into a no-code tool and charge a monthly retainer for a black box you never own. We go deeper. We use the same techniques as the frontier AI labs, training and fine-tuning custom models, building multi-step agents, retrieval systems, computer vision, and reinforcement learning, so when an off-the-shelf API is not accurate, private, or reliable enough, we can actually build the model instead of giving up. That depth makes even the simple automations more robust, and you own everything we build.

How are you faster and cheaper than a traditional software firm?

You work directly with the senior engineers building your software, not a chain of account managers and project layers. We scope tightly, ship a working proof of concept in weeks instead of quarters, and reuse battle-tested building blocks rather than starting every project from scratch. Because we do not carry the overhead of a large enterprise consultancy, a focused build typically reaches production for a fraction of the time and budget, while still being engineered to production standards.
