How much does an AI consultant cost?
My rate is $50 an hour on Upwork. A consultation is $100 for 30 minutes or $200 for an hour. For a project, the cost depends on the work around the model more than on the model itself: checking the data, building a test set, connecting your systems and testing where it will run. I quote after seeing a sample of the data and the target.
What should I bring to a consultation?

Frequently asked questions
How much does an AI consultant cost per hour?
I charge $50 an hour on Upwork. A 30-minute consultation is $100 and a 60-minute one is $200.
Is the intro call free?
Yes. The 15-minute intro call has no charge. It is for deciding whether and how to work together, so bring the problem and what you have tried.
Why can't you give a fixed project price up front?
Most of the work sits around the model: checking the data, building a test set, connecting your systems and testing where it will run. I quote after seeing a sample of the data and the target, which is what the intro call is for.
