Common questions

How quickly can the AI & Data Team be onboarded?

Once you approve the team composition, all members are onboarded into your tools and workflows within 10 business days.

Can I customise the AI & Data Team composition?

Yes. The package shown is our recommended configuration. You can add, remove, or swap individual roles. We adjust the monthly rate accordingly.

What is included in the monthly rate?

The monthly rate covers each team member's dedicated hours, HR, payroll, equipment, and Codalyst Tech's account management. There are no hidden fees.

Can I mix full-time and part-time members within the team?

Yes. Many clients have a lead engineer full-time and a QA or designer part-time. We price each role individually and combine them into one invoice.

What if a team member is not the right fit?
