FAQs

What exactly does Birmingham AI do?

We are a full-service artificial intelligence agency for businesses. We start by helping you create a strategic AI Roadmap, then we design, build, and implement custom AI solutions—like intelligent apps, marketing automation, and lead generation systems—to solve specific business problems and drive growth.

How are you different from a regular software development agency?

While a software agency builds what you ask for, we start by helping you discover what to ask for. Our core differentiator is our AI-first strategy. We combine business strategy with deep technical AI expertise to identify opportunities you may not have seen, ensuring the solutions we build are not just functional, but genuinely transformative and intelligent.

What industries do you work with?

We work with ambitious businesses across sectors, including manufacturing, logistics, e-commerce, professional services, finance, and healthcare. Our AI strategy and implementation process is adaptable to any industry that has data and processes to optimize.

Why do you start with a separate AI Strategy phase?

Jumping straight into building an AI tool without a strategy is like building a house without a blueprint. The Strategy Phase de-risks your investment by ensuring we have a clear understanding of your goals, data, and ROI targets before a single line of code is written. It guarantees that our subsequent work is focused, efficient, and aligned with your business objectives.

How long does a typical AI project take?

The timeline depends entirely on the project's scope. A Strategy Phase typically takes 4-6 weeks. A Pilot Program (Phase 2) can take 8-12 weeks to deliver a working proof-of-concept. Full-scale implementation can range from 3 to 9 months.
