We publish our Claude consulting pricing because we have nothing to hide. Fixed-fee projects. Retained support. Certified architects. Here's exactly what you get and what it costs.
Every engagement starts with a free 30-minute strategy call. From there, we scope a fixed-fee project, retained monthly support, or ad-hoc advisory depending on where you are in the deployment process.
For enterprises with a defined Claude deployment scope and a clear outcome in mind.
Scoped per project. Typical range based on deployment complexity.
For enterprises that need a Claude architecture team on retainer as they scale deployment across teams.
Monthly rolling. Minimum 3-month commitment. Volume discounts at 6 and 12 months.
For teams that need expert Claude guidance without a full implementation engagement.
Minimum 4 hours per session. Half-day and full-day rates available.
Note on Anthropic licensing costs: Our consulting fees cover implementation, architecture, and support. Anthropic Claude Enterprise licensing is a separate cost billed directly by Anthropic. Claude Enterprise pricing is available on request from Anthropic's sales team. We can advise on licence sizing and negotiation as part of our Claude strategy service.
Not every engagement needs the full implementation programme. Below are fixed-fee ranges for individual services. All rates are exclusive of Anthropic licensing and any third-party infrastructure costs.

Regardless of engagement model, every Claude consulting project includes the core elements that separate a professional deployment from a failed experiment.
Most enterprises that try Claude deployments without specialist help spend 6–12 months getting to production and still end up with governance gaps. Here's the honest comparison.
| Factor | DIY / Internal Team | ClaudeImplementation.com |
|---|---|---|
| Time to production | 6–18 months (with detours) | 8–16 weeks |
| Claude-specific expertise | Built via trial and error | Claude Certified Architects from day one |
| Security & governance | Often incomplete; CISO flags late | Built in from discovery phase |
| Anthropic Partner Network access | — | Direct partner access and escalation path |
| Staying current with Claude updates | Ad hoc; often delayed | Proactive — Anthropic releases reviewed same day |
| MCP server development | Requires dedicated engineering time | Specialist MCP architects on staff |
| Total cost of ownership | Hidden in engineering salaries + rework | Fixed-fee — know the number upfront |
No. Our consulting fees cover implementation, architecture, training, and support. Anthropic's Claude Enterprise licence is a separate cost you purchase directly from Anthropic. We can assist with licence sizing and help you navigate the Anthropic procurement process as part of our strategy engagement, but the licence cost itself is not included in our rates.
A 30-minute call with a Claude Certified Architect. We'll review your current AI situation, identify where Claude can deliver the fastest measurable return, flag any security or governance concerns specific to your industry, and give you an honest assessment of scope and timeline. No sales pitch. If we're not the right fit, we'll tell you. Book it here.
After the initial strategy call, we run a 1–2 week paid discovery phase ($4,500 – $8,500) that maps your current systems, identifies integration points, defines deliverables, and produces a detailed fixed-fee project proposal. The discovery phase cost is credited against the main engagement if you proceed. This ensures the fixed fee is based on actual scope, not guesswork.
Yes, and this is a common pattern for enterprises in evaluation mode. Many clients start with 8–16 advisory hours covering architecture review, security assessment, or a POC critique before committing to a full deployment engagement. Advisory hours can be credited against a fixed-fee or retainer agreement at 80% if you engage within 90 days.
Yes. We work with enterprise clients globally and have deployed Claude across financial services and legal organisations in the UK, EU, Middle East, and APAC. For European clients, we are familiar with data residency requirements under GDPR and work with Anthropic's EU data processing infrastructure options. All engagements are conducted in English and priced in USD.
Our heaviest deployment experience is across financial services, legal, healthcare, and manufacturing. These are sectors where data governance and compliance requirements make Claude deployment more complex — and where getting it wrong has real regulatory consequences. See our case studies for sector-specific examples, or visit our about page for team background detail.
