Question 1

What does an AI strategy consulting agency do?

Accepted Answer

An AI strategy consulting agency helps businesses identify where AI can deliver the highest ROI, build a prioritized AI roadmap, and make build vs. buy vs. partner decisions. They assess organizational readiness, run use-case prioritization workshops, define governance frameworks, and guide vendor selection — without necessarily building the software themselves.

Question 2

How much does AI strategy consulting cost?

Accepted Answer

AI strategy consulting engagements typically cost $5,000 to $25,000. An AI readiness assessment and roadmap typically runs $8,000–$15,000 for a 4–6 week engagement. Full AI transformation advisory programs for enterprises can reach $50,000–$150,000.

Question 3

How long does an AI strategy engagement take?

Accepted Answer

A focused AI readiness assessment takes 2–4 weeks. A full AI strategy and roadmap engagement takes 4–8 weeks. Ongoing advisory retainers (typically $3,000–$8,000 per month) provide continued guidance during AI program execution.

Question 4

What does an AI strategy consulting deliverable look like?

Accepted Answer

Typical deliverables include an AI readiness report, a prioritized use-case backlog (ranked by ROI and feasibility), a 12–18 month AI roadmap, vendor evaluation criteria, and an AI governance framework. Many agencies also provide change management playbooks and data readiness assessments.

Question 5

How do I know if I need an AI strategy consultant?

Accepted Answer

You need an AI strategy consultant if you have budget to invest in AI but are unsure which use cases to prioritize, if competing stakeholders have different visions for AI adoption, or if you want an objective external view on whether to build AI in-house or partner with a vendor.
