AI strategy consulting from the team that builds the systems
Before you spend on a build, we work out with you where AI will pay for itself and whether your data is ready for it. Then we plan governance and set up the evaluation that shows the system works. The people giving the advice are engineers who ship AI systems, so everything on the roadmap is something we can build.

What AI strategy consulting delivers
- What is AI strategy consulting?
- AI strategy consulting helps a company decide which business problems AI should solve first, whether its data can support them, what the systems will cost and how they will be governed. The output is a costed roadmap and a build plan, plus the evaluation and governance rules that keep AI safe in production.
Most roadmaps start with RAG development or AI agent development.

AI strategy consulting FAQs
Anything not covered here, ask on the call.
What do we get at the end of an AI strategy engagement?
A ranked list of AI use cases with expected cost and payback, a data readiness check, an architecture for the first build, governance rules and an evaluation plan. It is written so your board can approve it and an engineering team can build from it.
How long does an AI strategy engagement take?
Most run as a 1 to 2 week discovery sprint. Larger organisations with several business units may need longer, which we scope on the call.
How much does AI strategy consulting cost?
The discovery sprint is free. An AI proof of concept on your data starts from $4,999.
Do you also build what the strategy recommends?
Yes. The same team builds it, which keeps the strategy honest. You are free to take the plan to another team instead.
How do you handle AI governance and regulation?
We map each use case to the rules that apply, such as GDPR, HIPAA or the EU AI Act, then design access control, audit logs, human review and model documentation into the build.
Do we need clean data before we start?
No. Part of the strategy work is checking which data is good enough today and what needs fixing first, so you do not spend months cleaning data no use case needs.
One team, matched to your working hours
We schedule 4 to 6 hours of daily overlap with US time and a full working day with the UK and Europe, so reviews, demos and fixes happen during your working hours.
What sets ScalaCode apart is their technical AI expertise and an understanding of a client's organizational ethos.
