asked before anyone books a call.
What does an AI development agency do?+
It designs and builds software where AI does part of the work: agents that take actions in your tools, automations that move data between apps, chatbots that answer from your documents, and first versions of AI products. A good one also tells you when a plain workflow or an off-the-shelf tool would do the job better.
What is the difference between an AI agent and an automation?+
An automation follows the same steps every time. An AI agent decides the next step based on what the input says, using a short list of tools you give it. Most businesses need automations first and agents only where the work genuinely varies.
How much does it cost to hire an AI agency?+
Across 48 agencies that publish prices, a single workflow starts around $1,000, a multi-workflow project or AI agent around $3,500, and ongoing build retainers around $1,400 a month. Our full pricing research, with every source, is on the AI automation agency page.
How long does a typical project take?+
A single well-defined workflow can take days. A set of connected workflows or an agent, including a shadow run next to the manual process, usually takes a few weeks. We agree the timeline in the fixed scope before work starts.
Do you work with companies in other time zones?+
Yes. Aumiqx is remote-first: we work async and hold calls in your working hours. Everything runs in your own accounts, so where you are doesn't change how the work is delivered.
Who owns what you build?+
You do. Everything runs in your accounts with credentials in your name, and you get a runbook and recorded walkthrough so your team can run it without us.
Is our data safe with AI?+
We keep data in your systems wherever possible, use model providers that do not train on API data, and put a human approval step in front of anything that touches customers, money or deletions.
