AI Data Analyst in Denver

The best AI Data Analyst in Denver, at the best available price.

$0 upfrontPay per accepted checkpointSenior engineer, no agency markup

Your team asks in English. The service finds the tables, writes the SQL, runs it against a read-only replica inside your own cloud, and returns the number with the query attached. It cannot touch a table whose schema it has not just read, and that is enforced in code rather than requested in a prompt. Starts at $0: you pay at checkpoints you accept.

Denver and Boulder form one of the most active startup regions between the coasts, with strengths in aerospace, outdoor and consumer brands, fintech and SaaS. The region attracts founders who left larger cities, and companies here tend to be capital efficient by necessity.

Mid-size SaaS and consumer companies in Denver often have more data than analysts. A read-only analyst answers the routine questions and leaves the data team for the hard ones.

What you get

  • Deployed in your own cloud account against a read-only replica you create, so we never hold a credential to your database
  • A signed schema check the model cannot skip: no SQL runs against a table it has not just inspected, and the tokens expire in fifteen minutes
  • A grant list your data owner approves, naming the exact tables and columns the analyst may read, with everything else refused at the database
  • Exposed inside Claude or ChatGPT in your organisation's workspace, behind your existing Google sign in, so nobody learns a new interface
  • Every question logged with the SQL it ran, the tables it touched and whether it errored, which is what an auditor actually asks for
  • Runs on a private LLM on your own hardware where data security demands it, up to fully air-gapped, so nothing at all crosses your perimeter
Builds from $6,000. Assessment fixed fee, credited in full.

No payment before a checkpoint is delivered and accepted. Most builds land between $6,000 and $18,000 depending on how many databases are in scope and how much of the schema the first domain covers. Optional upkeep from $1,200 a month, and only if you want it.

Invoiced in USD, payable by Wise or bank transfer.

Stage three refuses to run unless it is handed a valid token from stage two for a table in the query. The model cannot skip the schema read, because the check is a signature in code rather than an instruction in a prompt.

Architecture diagram of an AI data analyst that can only read: a question asked in Claude or ChatGPT goes to an MCP server running in your cloud, through a semantic layer of your metrics and definitions, into generated SQL, then a validation step that enforces read-only access, row limits and cited numbers, before it reaches a read-only replica. The answer returns with the numbers cited, and a write is refused by the database itself.
Every answer comes from a read-only replica through a validated query, with the numbers cited.
How you pay

Get it built at $0.

That is not a discount. It is when you pay. The work is split into checkpoints with acceptance criteria written down before anything starts, and each checkpoint is invoiced only after you have seen it and accepted it. No deposit.

$0 to start
You hold every dollar until a checkpoint is delivered and you accept it. No approval, no invoice.
Fixed cost, unlimited features
Or hire the team outright: one fixed monthly cost, unlimited feature development, any stack.
The engineer takes your call
The person on your first call is the one who architects and writes it. No account managers, no bench time.

A US agency quotes $50,000 to $150,000 for the same build and asks for 40 to 50% of it before a line is written. Account managers, project managers, sales commission and bench time. None of it appears in your product.

How it works

Three stages, nothing hidden.

01

Fixed-fee assessment

Five business days from the day read-only access is in place. Schema inventoried, the questions your team actually asks classified as answerable or not, the grant list drafted with whoever owns data protection, and acceptance criteria written as testable statements.

02

Build in checkpoints

About three weeks. Deployed in your cloud account, connected to your replica and to your assistant workspace, with the semantic layer written for the first domain. Each checkpoint has criteria agreed before work starts and is invoiced only once you accept it.

03

Handover and closeout

A real question from your team, answered end to end, with the SQL shown and the numbers reconciled against the source rows. Runbook, recorded handoff, code and semantic layer in your repository, and all our access removed with written confirmation.

Working in Denver

What actually applies here.

Regulation and data

Colorado passed the first broad state law on high-risk AI, the Colorado AI Act, which puts duties on companies that use AI to make consequential decisions about people, such as hiring, lending, housing or insurance. Its start date has been pushed back and the law revisited more than once, so check the current version with counsel before relying on any summary. The Colorado Privacy Act already applies, and since 2025 it includes specific rules for biometric data.

Contracting and payment

You contract with an individual consultant based in India rather than a US entity. Invoices are issued in USD and paid by Wise or bank transfer, with no payroll and no benefits load on your side. Whatever documentation your finance team or counsel needs from an overseas contractor is provided before work starts.

Working hours

Calls in your morning, Mountain time, a shared window at the start of your day, and work handed over overnight so the next round is waiting when you start.

Does the Colorado AI Act apply to our product?

It focuses on high-risk systems that make, or substantially influence, consequential decisions about people. Most internal tools, chat assistants and analytics fall outside that definition. Your counsel makes the call; we build the documentation, testing and human review it would require if you are in scope.

Do you work with Boulder companies as well as Denver?

Yes. The work is remote with calls in your morning Mountain time, so where you are in the region makes no difference.

We already have a BI tool. Does this replace it?

No, and it should not. Your dashboards answer the questions somebody anticipated, and they will keep doing that. This answers the ones nobody built a chart for, which is where the waiting happens. Teams that keep both end up using the dashboards for the standing numbers and the analyst for everything else.

How long before somebody can ask a real question?

Usually inside the first week of the build, on a narrow slice of the schema. The first domain being useful early is the point of doing it in checkpoints: you see it working on your own data before most of the money is committed.

What if our schema is a mess?

Most are, and it changes the shape of the work rather than ruling it out. Undocumented columns, legacy tables nobody dares delete and two spellings of the same idea are normal. The assessment tells you plainly how much of that has to be untangled first, and if the answer is that you need a data cleanup before an analyst is worth building, you will be told that instead of sold this.
