Pricing of the AI Project

Slide Content

This PowerPoint slide, titled "Pricing of the AI Project," breaks down the costs associated with different phases and aspects of an AI project. The slide lists six categories: Analysis, Proof of Concept, Main Project, Travel expenses, Documentation, and Maintenance. Each item is accompanied by the number of units (time/days or trips), unit cost, and total cost in USD. The Analysis involves 2 days at $1,000 each, summing to $2,000. Proof of Concept runs for 10 days at the same daily rate, totaling $10,000. The Main Project demands 50 days, contributing the largest portion to the total with $80,000. Travel expenses are calculated on the number of trips, costing $10,000 for 5 trips. Documentation, spanning over 5 days, incurs $5,000, and year-long Maintenance stands at $5,000. The slide's total sums these up, showing an aggregated cost. At the bottom, additional notes cite inclusions like Initial Analysis and exclusions such as extra travel costs.
