AI Chatbots & AI Agents development cost and timeline
A production-ready AI chatbots & AI agents is priced as per your requirements and budget, with a first release in 3–8 weeks.
The final cost of AI chatbots & AI agents depends on five main factors: the number of user roles and screens, the integrations required (payments, identity, ERP, CRM, messaging), compliance and security requirements, the seniority mix of the team, and the engagement model.
We always start with a short discovery phase so the estimate you receive is fixed and written, not a vague range. Ongoing maintenance and hosting typically add 15–20% of the build cost per year.
| Phase | What is delivered | Indicative duration |
|---|---|---|
| Discovery | Scope, prototype, architecture | 1–3 weeks |
| MVP build | Knowledge grounding, Channels, Actions | 3–8 weeks |
| Hardening | Security testing, performance, compliance | 2–4 weeks |
| Growth | Human handover, Guardrails, Analytics | Ongoing |

How we deliver AI chatbots & AI agents projects
Every AI chatbots & AI agents engagement follows the same disciplined, transparent process. You always know what is being built, what it costs and what comes next.
1. Discovery and scoping (1–2 weeks)
Workshops with your stakeholders to understand goals, users, workflows and constraints. We document requirements as user stories, map integrations and agree success metrics, then share a written scope, milestone plan and fixed estimate for AI chatbots & AI agents.
2. UX and architecture (1–3 weeks)
Designers produce user flows and a clickable prototype while architects choose the stack, hosting, data model and security controls. Nothing is built until you sign off the prototype and architecture.
3. Agile development (two-week sprints)
Developers build in short sprints with a demo at the end of each one. You see working software early, give feedback continuously and can reprioritise the backlog at any time.
4. Quality assurance
Dedicated QA engineers write test cases, run manual and automated regression tests, check performance and review security basics before every release. Defects are tracked openly.
5. Launch
We deploy with zero-downtime pipelines, migrate data if needed, monitor closely during the first days and train your team or users.
6. Support and growth
After launch, SLA-backed support covers bug fixes, monitoring, security patches and continuous improvement, so the product keeps improving as your business grows.
