How much does a custom AI agent cost?

A single-workflow agent — one job end to end, up to three integrations, built on Claude and n8n and delivered with documentation — is $2,000 one-time. Multi-step systems with approvals and several integrations are $3,500–5,000. Multi-agent or product-embedded builds are quoted from $5,000 after a scoping call. Maintenance is optional at $99–250/month.

What does an automation workflow subscription include?

Setup and configuration to your tools, hosting on our n8n (or deployment to yours), monitoring, fixes when a connected API changes, small improvements, and a monthly summary. Billing is monthly, there is no contract, and you keep the workflow JSON if you leave.

What moves the price up?

For workflows: volume above the plan's limit, extra integrations, more than one language, or actions inside your own product. For custom builds: the number of integrations, whether it needs approvals and a dashboard, self-hosted models or data-residency requirements, and how unusual your systems are. The discovery call resolves these before a price is quoted.

Are model and tool costs included?

Model usage (Claude API tokens) and third-party data or tool subscriptions (enrichment credits, transcription, n8n Cloud if you host there) are billed by the providers to your accounts. For most workflows these are tens of dollars a month; we tell you the estimate on the call.

Is there a discount for several workflows?

Yes — related workflows share integrations, so the second and third are cheaper: for example onboarding plus offboarding at $397/month, or demand forecasting plus inventory optimisation at $497/month. Ask on the call.

Do you charge for the discovery call?

No. Forty-five minutes, no commitment, and you leave with a straight answer: subscription, custom build, or not worth automating yet.

What if the workflow does not work as scoped?

Custom builds include 30–60 days of fixes after hand-off, and the scope document defines 'done' in measurable terms before we start. Subscriptions can be cancelled monthly; the first month includes setup, so if it is not working you have lost one month.

Pricing

What it costs to have an AI agent or automation workflow built

Public, fixed prices. Automation workflows are a monthly subscription with setup and maintenance included; custom AI agents are a one-time build with optional maintenance. Model and third-party tool usage is billed by the providers to your accounts.

Custom AI agents

from $2,000 one-time

A custom AI agent built for one workflow in your stack and live in 2–4 weeks. From $2,000 one-time, optional maintenance from $99/month. Built on Claude and n8n, handed over with documentation and a recorded walkthrough.

· Single-workflow agent — $2,000 · 2–3 weeks
· Multi-step system — $3,500–5,000 · 3–5 weeks
· Multi-agent or product-embedded — from $5,000 · Scoped

How the build works

Workshops

$500–1,500 per team session; $5,000 full-day company workshop; $2,500/month ongoing office hours

Role-specific AI workshops drive 2–3x higher adoption than generic training (Gartner). 90-minute or full-day sessions with hands-on building so your team actually uses AI.

Strategy consulting

$5,000–20,000/month (strategy and roadmap engagements)

70% of AI initiatives fail without proper prioritization (McKinsey). We deliver strategy, use-case ranking, and implementation roadmap—$5,000–20,000/month engagements.
