The cost of developing an app depends on specific decisions you can define before requesting a single quote.

You want an AI model to work with your company's data. Some say "fine-tuning," others say "RAG." In the RAG vs. fine-tuning debate, both seem interchangeable, but they solve very different problems. Choosing the wrong one not only costs money, it leaves you with a system that doesn't do what you need.

Every time your team deploys a new version, there's a moment of uncertainty. Will it work? Will there be a crash? Deployment is still synonymous with risk for many teams, but it doesn't have to be. There are proven strategies for updating production applications without downtime. The key is choosing the right one.

A language model can draft contracts, summarize reports, and answer technical questions. But it doesn't know how much you billed last month or what your return policy says.
