When Does a Startup Actually Need ML?
I help founders and CTOs ship ml consulting services with production standards — React Native, Python, and AI under one senior engineer. Typical projects: $20K–$120K.

What affects price and timeline
Scope, integrations (payments, maps, AI APIs), compliance requirements, and team involvement all shift the range. Most ml consulting services engagements I take fall between $20K–$120K for production-quality delivery.
When to hire a senior engineer
Hire when the cost of delay exceeds the cost of expertise — failed MVPs, rewrite cycles, and AI demos that never reach production are more expensive than scoped senior delivery.
