Hiring an AI Consultant in London or Brighton (2026 Guide)
Short answer: to hire a good AI consultant in London or Brighton, shortlist on proof of shipped work rather than directory rankings, insist on a written scope and fixed price, and confirm you will own the result. Expect day rates from £1,200 upward at agencies, or fixed-price project quotes from a boutique.
How to vet a shortlist in one call
- Ask what they shipped, not what they know.
- Make them scope before they price.
- Confirm ownership and handover.
- Find out who actually builds it.
