Six engagements. Priced before you commit.
In short: NewGenApps offers production AI, proven, as six scoped engagements, from a one-day session to an embedded senior pod. Each one shows who it is for, what you get, how long it takes and a starting price. The flagship is the POC in 3 Weeks: a working proof on your own data, independently evaluated, ending in an honest go or no-go.

What does each engagement cost?
Prices are in US dollars and shown as a starting point (“from”). The fee is set against a scoped engagement after a free 30-minute call, so you know the deliverable and the price before you commit. Start at the rung that matches where you are. What drives a price, and how to read any quote, is in how much AI consulting costs.
| Engagement | Duration | Starting price |
|---|---|---|
| AI in a Day | One working day | from $2,500 |
| AI Compass — opportunity audit | 2 to 6 weeks | from $5,000, credited toward the build |
| POC in 3 Weeks (flagship) | 3 weeks | from $15,000 |
| AI Rescue (for stalled pilots) | About 90 days | from $25,000, credited toward the build |
| AI Production Build | Phased, milestone-gated | from $40,000 |
| Your AI Team — embedded retainer | Month to month | from $10,000 per month |
AI in a Day
Who it's for. Technology and data leaders (CIO, CTO, CDO, Head of Data) and founders who need a rigorous read on where AI pays off before committing budget. A good fit when several ideas compete, an earlier effort stalled, or a board is asking for a plan.
What you get.
- A ranked shortlist of AI opportunities, each scored on value, effort and risk, with the reasoning visible
- A one-page “where to start”: the recommended first move and what it would take to prove it
- A “not yet / not this” list of candidates we would defer, and why
Duration One working day · Investment from $2,500 per one-day session

AI Compass — opportunity audit
Who it's for. Leaders who need a costed, ranked roadmap, and an honest verdict on data readiness, before funding a build.
What you get.
- A prioritized, costed roadmap: every initiative scored on value, feasibility, time-to-value and risk, with its ROI assumptions exposed
- A data-readiness scorecard, rated red, amber or green per system, with the gaps and the fixes
- A recommended first proof-of-concept, with the trade-off made explicit
- An executive readout your sponsor can take a funding decision from
Duration Typically 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the functions and systems in scope · Investment from $5,000, credited toward a subsequent build
POC in 3 Weeks (flagship)
Who it's for. Budget owners with one well-defined use case who need to know, on their own data, whether it clears the quality bar at an acceptable cost and latency, before they fund a production build.
What you get.
- A working proof-of-concept on your real data, demonstrated live
- An independent evaluation of quality, cost and latency against thresholds you sign off in Week 1
- The evaluation harness, the codebase and an architecture document, handed over
- An honest build, refine or do-not-build recommendation, with a costed production roadmap when the verdict is build or refine. A reasoned “do not build” is a successful outcome
Duration 3 weeks (21 days) · Investment from $15,000 · What a POC should prove →
AI Rescue (for stalled pilots)
Who it's for. The owner of a GenAI or agent pilot that demoed well, secured budget, and then stalled before production, or a team that inherited one and needs an independent read on whether it is salvageable.
What you get.
- A first-week triage: a root-cause diagnosis and an honest recover, re-scope or retire verdict
- For a recoverable pilot: a data-integrity contract and an evaluation harness over your real data, remediation, and independent verification
- Production integration, four-layer deploy-and-verify and an evidence-based rollout (pilot, limited, full)
- Outcome monitoring, runbooks and a named owner at handover
Duration About 90 days, fixed scope, with a real off-ramp after week one · Investment from $25,000, credited toward a subsequent production build · How AI Rescue works →
AI Production Build
Who it's for. Teams with a use case already validated, by a POC, an audit or an experiment, that now need it running in production.
What you get.
- Solution design and architecture, with a data-integrity contract for every source
- The production build in your stack, with an evaluation harness from day one and guardrails on inputs and outputs
- Observability on outcomes rather than liveness, with freshness, cost and latency telemetry
- Four-layer, independently verified deployment, an evidence-based rollout, runbooks and knowledge transfer
Duration Phased and milestone-gated; the calendar is agreed at scoping · Investment from $40,000, phased
Your AI Team — embedded retainer
Who it's for. Organizations that want a durable, senior AI capability inside their own team, from strategy through production and operation, without hiring and managing it themselves.
What you get.
- A small senior pod working in your tools, stand-ups and overlapping hours: an Engagement Lead, with an architect, builders and independent verification sized to the tier
- A rolling backlog re-planned every sprint, and a monthly strategic review that reads the roadmap alongside outcome metrics
- Work independently verified before it is promoted, with responsiveness tiers for incidents
- Continuous knowledge transfer and a structured, no-lock-in exit at no extra charge
Duration Month to month after an initial term of typically three months · Investment from $10,000 per month for the smallest pod; larger pods cost more and the tier is confirmed at scoping
What do the prices include?
- Credits. The AI Compass and AI Rescue fees are credited toward a subsequent build, on the terms in the engagement letter.
- Third-party costs. On the AI Production Build and Your AI Team, model usage, third-party licenses and cloud infrastructure are separate: billed at cost, or paid directly by you.
- Verification. Every engagement that builds something ends with independent verification on the running system. The person who builds it does not sign it off.
- Proof. Under NDA we do not name clients; past work is described by sector on the Work page, and the method is on How we work.
