Holston AI

AI Agents & Automation

AI consulting services that end with working software

Why many AI consulting projects stall

Many AI consulting projects end with a strategy document and a plan, and then you need to hire someone else to build it. Many AI projects stall at this handoff.

Holston AI handles both. The same team that identifies the opportunity also builds the solution.

How an engagement works

We start by looking at where your team spends its time, especially on repetitive reading, typing, checking, and routing. We rank the opportunities by time saved and difficulty, choose the best one, and give you a fixed price to build it. Most first projects are live in 2 to 4 weeks.

  • Map processes and find the manual work AI can remove
  • Rank opportunities by hours saved, risk, and cost
  • Fixed-price proposal for the first build, in writing
  • A working system with approvals, activity logs, and tests
  • Optional ongoing support and the next opportunity on the list

How much AI consultants charge

AI consultants usually bill by the hour or by the project, and rates vary widely with experience. Holston AI does not sell consulting hours on their own. We charge a fixed price for the finished result, from small automations to AI agents that work across several systems. Our instant quote at holstonai.com/quote gives you a number in seconds, and the scoping conversation confirms it.

How to hire an AI consultant

Ask what systems they have actually built and put into use. Ask who will build the system once the plan is complete, how they handle data privacy, and whether they will give you a fixed price for the first project. A consultant who cannot point to a working system they built may not be the right fit.

What does an AI consultant do?

An AI consultant finds where AI can save time or money, recommends an approach, and ideally builds and launches the solution. We handle all three, so nothing is lost between planning and building.

Do you work with small businesses?

Yes. We focus on small and mid-size businesses, with up to 500 employees, in healthcare administration, manufacturing, logistics, professional services, retail, and restaurants.

Is our data safe?

Yes. We build in your accounts, limit what each AI tool can access, log every action, and can run AI models privately on servers you control when data must stay in-house.
