Welcome to Associative, a premier software development firm headquartered in Pune, Maharashtra, India. In the rapidly evolving world of technology, businesses often struggle with one critical question: How much will my AI idea cost to build?

Accurate AI project cost estimation is challenging because Artificial Intelligence is research-intensive and dynamic. At Associative, we replace the guesswork of fixed-bid contracts with a transparent, time-and-materials approach that aligns your budget with actual value delivered.

The Challenge with AI Project Cost Estimation

Unlike traditional website development, AI and Machine Learning projects require continuous data training, model selection, and testing. A static quote often fails to account for the iterative nature of:

  • Generative AI & LLMs: Building chatbots using LangChain or Ollama.

  • Computer Vision: Implementing image recognition with OpenCV.

  • Deep Learning: Utilizing TensorFlow or PyTorch for complex data analysis.

Because these technologies evolve quickly, we believe the most accurate way to manage AI project cost estimation is through operational transparency and flexible engagement models rather than rigid fixed costs.

Our Transparent Pricing & Engagement Model

We operate with unyielding transparency. To give you control over your investment, we offer a structure designed to eliminate inefficiencies:

  • Variable Engagement: We offer flexible models ranging from a minimum of 3 hours to a maximum of 9 hours per day, catering to the specific pace of your project.

  • Time-and-Materials Billing: You only pay for the work performed. We do not provide fixed-bid or fixed-timeline contracts due to the dynamic nature of development.

  • Transparent Invoicing: Invoices are submitted daily, weekly, or on a milestone basis.

  • General Estimates: While we avoid fixed bids, we provide general time estimates based on experience. For example, complex custom software often requires a minimum of 1,000 hours of development.
