Hire a dedicated AI MVP development team from SofStack: AI engineers, full-stack developers and a delivery lead who work only on your roadmap, as an extension of your in-house team.
A dedicated team suits companies with ongoing AI work, changing priorities or several products to build. You get consistent people who learn your business, without the cost and delay of hiring them yourself.

How quickly can the team start?
Most teams start within one to two weeks of agreeing the team proposal.
Can we change the team size?
Yes. You can add or reduce roles with notice, based on your roadmap.
Who manages the team day to day?
