The Approach

How this is different from the way AI usually gets sold.

Most AI help is built for enterprise. We built this for businesses that want real results without the enterprise price tag.

01

Flat monthly fee, not $50K projects

One predictable monthly fee covers setup, integration, your AI dashboard, and ongoing maintenance, with no surprise invoices. You know exactly what you’re paying before you start.

02

We connect what you already use

We don’t sell you new software. If you’re on HubSpot, we work with HubSpot. If you use QuickBooks, we work with QuickBooks. Your team keeps using the tools they already know. We just make those tools work together.

03

A real person, not a ticket system

Direct access to your integration lead. A person who knows your business, your tools, and your goals. When you have a question, you get an answer, not a ticket number.

04

Results in 60 days, not 6 months

Enterprise consultants build 6-month project plans with steering committees and milestone reviews. We do an assessment in the first couple of weeks, integrate your tools over the following weeks, and have you fully up and running inside of 60 days. Ongoing optimization continues from there.

What You Get

What It Costs

Transparency matters. Here’s how pricing works.

How AI consulting pricing actually breaks down in 2026.

Option 01Enterprise AI consultantsProject-based engagements typically run $50K-200K+. Timelines of 6-12 months are standard. Makes sense for Fortune 500 companies with legacy systems. Does not make sense for a 15-person business.$50K-200K+ · $150-300/hr
Option 02Freelance AI developersCustom-built solutions that depend entirely on that individual. When they move on, your system is orphaned. No ongoing maintenance. No predictable pricing.$75-150/hr · One-off builds
Option 03Plyntr managed integrationA flat monthly fee covers assessment, integration, dashboard, ongoing optimization, and direct access to your integration lead. A fraction of what enterprise consultants charge.Flat monthly · Everything included
You walk away from the assessment knowing exactly what this would cost for your business: a clear picture of the work and the price. You won’t get a ballpark range that triples later, or an "it depends on scope" that turns into months of scope creep.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Q.How much does AI consulting cost for a small business?

Enterprise AI consultants charge $150-300 per hour, with projects running $50K-200K+. Plyntr offers a managed monthly service at a fraction of that cost. Your monthly fee includes everything: assessment, integration, AI dashboard, ongoing optimization, and direct access to your integration lead. After the free assessment, you get clear, transparent pricing, not a vague range.

Q.What should I look for in an AI integration partner?

Three things: First, do they work with small business tools (HubSpot, QuickBooks, Google Ads) or only enterprise platforms? Second, do they offer ongoing support or just a one-time project you have to maintain yourself? Third, is the pricing transparent and predictable, or are you signing up for hourly billing that could balloon? The best partner understands your specific tools and your budget constraints.

Q.How long until I see ROI from AI implementation?

Most of our clients see measurable time savings within the first two weeks of going live. The morning briefing alone saves 30 to 60 minutes per day for the business owner. Within 60 to 90 days, the data from connected systems starts revealing revenue opportunities: leads that were falling through the cracks, campaigns that were wasting budget, customers ready for upsells. The ROI compounds over time as the system learns your business.

Q.Can I get AI integration done on a monthly retainer?

Yes, that’s exactly how Plyntr works. One flat monthly fee covers everything. Setup is included. There’s no separate project fee or implementation charge. If you decide it’s not working, you can cancel. There are no long-term contracts. We keep clients because the service delivers value, not because they’re locked in.

Q.What questions should I ask before hiring an AI consultant?

Ask these: What tools do you have experience integrating? Can you show me an example of the dashboard I’ll get? What happens if an integration breaks? Do I get a dedicated contact person? What does pricing look like over 12 months? How long until I’m up and running? What do I need to provide on my end? A good consultant will answer all of these clearly and without hedging.

Q.What’s the difference between an AI consultant and an AI automation agency?

An AI consultant typically provides advice and strategy. They tell you what to do, and you (or your IT team) implement it. An AI automation agency builds specific automations, usually project-based. Plyntr is a managed integration service: we provide the strategy, do the implementation, build the dashboard, and maintain everything ongoing. You get the thinking and the doing in one service.
