Software and AI consulting before you spend.

Make a clearer decision before funding a software or AI project. Our consulting reviews your workflow, existing systems and constraints to assess build versus buy, architecture, AI suitability and migration priorities. You receive a practical plan you can use with our team or another development partner.

  • A free 5-day audit comes first
  • We sign an NDA before we see anything
  • Advice from senior engineers
  • The plan is yours to keep

Vendor proposal review

Example

A vendor quoted a full rebuild of your order system

  1. Read the 38-page proposal and the current code
  2. Found 3 of 7 modules sound enough to keep
  3. Priced rebuilding only the other 4 against the quote
  4. The quote rebuilds all 7 modules. Ask the vendor to rescope?

An example with made-up figures. The buttons send nothing.

How software consulting works.

  1. You bring the decision

    One choice you need to make, such as whether AI fits a task, which system to replace first or whether a vendor quote is fair.

  2. We look at the facts

    Senior engineers read your systems, code and documents and talk to the people who use them. Every finding shows what it rests on.

  3. You decide

    You get a written answer, a plan and a price in plain language. What you do with it, and who builds it, is up to you.

Decisions we help you make.

Pick the decision you are stuck on. Each tab shows the question as it stands today and what you get from us.

    Everyone says you need AI, nobody says where

    With our advice

    A straight answer on whether AI fits

    We look at the tasks your team does by hand and the data behind them. You learn which ones AI can take on, which ones plain software handles better and which to leave alone. If AI is not a fit, we say so.

How you stay in control.

Advice from people you have never met has to earn your trust, so every consulting engagement we take on follows these four rules.

  • You make every decision

    We recommend; you decide. Nobody buys, builds or cancels anything on our word, and each recommendation comes with the options we ruled out and why.

    • You choose who signs off
    • Every risk named in writing
    • You can stop after any stage
  • Your information stays private

    We sign an NDA before we see your code, contracts or figures. You choose what we can see, and your files stay in your own accounts.

    • NDA signed before we read a file
    • You choose what we can see

    We work alongside your IT people and your current vendors. Where they are doing good work, we say that too.

    • Your IT team kept in the loop
    • Works with your current vendors
    • You own every plan and report
  • You see the reasoning and the cost

    Every recommendation shows what it rests on and what each option would cost. Paid advice is billed at a daily rate, agreed in writing before any paid work starts.

    Being associated with iTechnoSol was a pleasant and satisfying experience. They are good at many things, but I can't forget these two things in particular - their speed of response and clear understanding of my ideas. The team is really talented and was always available to answer my questions and to provide feedback. They beautifully nurtured the project and delivered it accordingly. I am delighted with them. Such a catch!

    For iTechnoSol, there is only one word in my mind - Fantastic! I am not just impressed by their service quality, but also for their working strategies.

  • I am looking forward to giving my future projects to iTechnoSol again.

    Read the full quote from Web app redesign client

    I already had a web application, but it was not up to the mark. So, I gave that project to iTechnoSol and told them that they are free to do anything, just give me a trendy but user-friendly app. I thought that redesigning existing projects is quite tough as the teams have to mold their thought processes according to my comfort zone, but I must say that they left no loophole in their work and offered a design that is a treat to the eyes! I am looking forward to giving my future projects to iTechnoSol again.

  • iTechnoSol stood behind us like a rock!

    Read the full quote from Outsourcing client, four-person team

    We are a team of four people who dream big and take a lot of projects altogether. So, we often need to outsource some of our software projects. We came to know about iTechnoSol from one of our clients, and we approached them. Within a day or two, they arranged an enthusiastic and dedicated development team through their software consultancy services! That project was big and very important for us, and we must say iTechnoSol stood behind us like a rock! Thank you buddies for all your love and support. We highly recommend this software company.

Software consulting questions.

What consulting costs, whether our advice is independent and what you walk away with.

What should we bring to a software consulting session?

Bring the business decision you need to make, a description of current systems and the constraints on budget, timing and staff. Existing architecture diagrams or vendor proposals help but are not required. We agree the questions the engagement needs to answer before starting.

How much do software consulting services cost?

The price moves with the size of the question, how many systems and vendors it touches and how deep the review goes. You start with the free 5-day audit, which ends with the cost of any further work: paid advice at a daily rate agreed in writing, a build at a fixed price. Nothing paid starts without your yes.

Will you just tell us to hire you to build it?

No. You keep the plan whoever builds it. If an off-the-shelf product, your own team or your current vendor is the better choice, we say so.

What does digital transformation consulting mean for a firm our size?

Something smaller and more concrete than the phrase suggests. We find the systems and tasks that cost you the most time, put them in order and price the first step. You change one part of the business at a time.

Can you review our architecture, our security or a vendor's code?

Yes. Senior engineers read the code, the architecture and how your data is protected, then write up what is sound and what is risky in plain language. The same review works as technical due diligence before you invest in or buy a business.

Who owns the plan and the reports you write?

You do, from the moment we write it. Every plan, review and report sits in your accounts under your name. Use it with us, with another vendor or with your own team, and owe nothing extra.

How do we work with a team based in India?

A founder handles your first call. We overlap 3 to 4 hours with US and UK business hours, send updates through your own tools and reply within 4 business hours.
