AI Development Company in the USA
Most of what gets sold here as AI development is a team of five with one person who has shipped, and a bill that reflects the other four. This is the opposite arrangement: the engineer who scopes it is the engineer who builds it, the price is fixed before anything starts, and you pay nothing until a checkpoint is delivered and you accept it.
The US is where AI budgets are largest and engineering rates are highest, which is exactly why so much of this work is quoted at numbers that have little to do with the effort involved. An agency will price a production MVP in the mid five figures and staff it with three people who have shipped less than the one you actually wanted. The gap between what a build costs and what it is billed at is the whole reason this arrangement works.
What you get
- One senior engineer end to end: the person on your first call architects it, writes it and hands it over
- LLM features, retrieval over your own documents, agents that call real tools, and voice where it earns its place
- Deployed in your own cloud account in a regional data centre, or on your own hardware where residency demands it
- Fixed price and fixed scope agreed in writing before work starts, invoiced per accepted checkpoint
- Code and infrastructure in your repository and your accounts, written to make us replaceable on purpose
Nothing payable upfront. You hold every dollar until a checkpoint is delivered and accepted, and thirty days of defect correction is included. Final scope and price are settled on a call before any work begins.
Invoiced in USD, payable by Wise or bank transfer.
Request a callback
You speak to the engineer who does the work. No sales rep, no deck.
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.
Three stages, nothing hidden.
Twenty-minute call
You talk to the engineer who will build it. We scope the problem, and if this is the wrong fit for you, you get told so on that call rather than three weeks into a proposal.
Fixed proposal in 48 hours
Fixed price, fixed timeline, defined deliverables, in writing. No hourly billing, no open-ended scope, and no change-request business model.
Checkpoints until it ships
Working software at each checkpoint, with acceptance criteria agreed before that checkpoint starts and an invoice only after you accept it. Direct access throughout, not a ticket queue.
What actually applies here.
Regulation and data
The pressure almost never comes from a regulator directly. It comes from your own customers. Enterprise buyers now run security reviews that ask where inference happens and who can read the prompt, and healthcare and financial clients increasingly write data-handling terms into contracts that a shared model API cannot satisfy. When that happens, moving inference inside infrastructure you control is usually the shortest path to a signed deal rather than a technical preference.
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
Four or more hours of daily overlap with US Eastern, calls scheduled in your morning, and same-day replies on working days.
Do you work with US companies from India?
Yes, and most engagements are with US companies. You contract with an individual consultant, invoiced in USD, with any documentation your finance team needs provided up front. No US entity, no payroll, no benefits overhead on your side.
How do you handle the time difference with US teams?
Four or more hours of daily overlap with US Eastern, calls in your morning, and same-day responses on working days. Work needing review is handed over at the end of your day and waiting when you start the next one.
How do you handle access to our systems?
Accounts stay yours throughout. Access is named and limited-privilege, work runs on synthetic data where possible, code and configuration are delivered continuously into your repository, and all access is removed at handover with written confirmation.
Why would we use an overseas engineer rather than a local integrator?
Often you should use both. An integrator holding the prime contract and the local relationship, with a specialist doing the AI and data layer underneath, is a common and sensible structure here. What you should not do is pay integrator rates for engineering that one person is actually doing.
Can the system run entirely inside our own infrastructure?
Yes, and in this region that is frequently the requirement rather than the preference. Model serving on your own hardware or in your own cloud account in a regional data centre, with no outbound calls, up to fully air-gapped.
Who owns the code?
You do, entirely. It ships into your repository on your own cloud accounts, documented so your team or your next hire can carry it without us, and all our access is removed at handover with written confirmation.
