Practical help,
not PowerPoints.
From strategic guidance to hands-on implementation. Every engagement is tailored to your reality—your budget, your team, your actual constraints.
Data & AI Strategy
Know where you're going before you start building
Most AI projects fail not because of technology, but because of unclear goals. We help you cut through the hype and build a practical roadmap that your team can actually execute.
What's included
- Current state assessment
- AI readiness evaluation
- Prioritized opportunity mapping
- Technology recommendations
- Build vs. buy analysis
- 90-day action plan
Organizations drowning in AI hype but unsure where to start. Founders building their first data team.
Data Engineering
The unsexy work that makes everything else possible
Your data is scattered across spreadsheets, legacy systems, and someone's personal laptop. We build the pipelines that pull it together, clean it up, and make it actually usable.
What's included
- Data audit and quality assessment
- Pipeline architecture design
- ETL/ELT development (Python, SQL, dbt)
- Data warehouse or lakehouse setup
- Real-time streaming
- Data quality monitoring
Teams spending days on manual data prep. Organizations with siloed systems.

Cloud Infrastructure
Scalable foundations without the surprise bills
Cloud can save you money—or it can bankrupt you with runaway costs. We design infrastructure that scales when you need it and costs nothing when you don't.
What's included
- Cloud architecture design (AWS, GCP, Azure)
- Cost optimization
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
- Migration planning
- Security compliance
- Load-shedding resilient architectures
Businesses outgrowing on-prem servers. Teams shocked by cloud bills.
AI & Machine Learning
Practical AI that solves real problems
Not every problem needs machine learning. But when it does, we build models that work in production—not just in notebooks. From predictive analytics to LLM integration, AI that actually ships.
What's included
- Use case validation
- Model development and training
- LLM integration and RAG
- AI agent development
- Computer vision solutions
- MLOps deployment
Businesses with clear, repeatable decisions that could be automated.
How we work together
Whether it's a two-week strategy sprint or a multi-month implementation, every engagement follows a clear path.
Discovery Call
A 30-minute conversation to understand your situation. No pitch, no pressure—just figuring out if we can actually help.
Scoping & Proposal
A clear proposal with scope, timeline, and pricing. You'll know exactly what you're getting before we start.
Execution
Regular check-ins, documented progress, no black boxes. You'll always know where things stand.
Handover & Support
Documentation, training, and a transition period. Your team will be able to run things without me.
Fair, transparent, flexible
We don't publish fixed prices because every project is different. But we can tell you our philosophy:
Project-based pricing for defined deliverables. You know the cost upfront, we take the risk on scope creep.
Retainer arrangements for ongoing advisory work. Predictable monthly cost, flexible allocation of hours.
Impact rates for registered NGOs and social enterprises. We believe in the work and price accordingly.
What to expect
Indicative pricing in USD. Local pricing available for South African organizations.
Not sure what you need?
That's fine. Most people aren't. A discovery call will help us figure out the right starting point together.
