What does an AI consulting engagement with Kodora look like?

We start with a free AI Opportunity Assessment to identify your highest-value AI opportunities. We then move through an AI Readiness Snapshot (2 weeks), a Strategy and Business Case (4-8 weeks), and then into AI implementation and deployment. Every engagement is fixed-fee with clear deliverables.

How much does AI consulting cost in Australia?

An AI Readiness Snapshot typically runs $20,000-$50,000. A full AI Strategy and Business Case is usually $50,000-$120,000. AI implementation engagements are scoped per project. All engagements start with a free AI Opportunity Assessment.

What industries does Kodora specialise in for AI consulting?

We specialise in banking and financial services, insurance, transport and logistics, utilities, defence, and government. We are headquartered in Melbourne and provide AI consulting services across Australia, New Zealand, and Asia Pacific.

How is Kodora different from other AI consultancies in Australia?

Kodora is both a strategic AI advisory firm and a full AI implementation partner. We identify the opportunity, build the business case, and then build the solution with 50+ Microsoft Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud certified engineers. We also develop proprietary AI models for specific industries.

How long does it take to implement an AI solution?

A focused AI proof-of-concept can be delivered in 4-12 weeks. A production-grade AI system typically takes 3-9 months depending on complexity. Our transport and logistics client saw a 4x ROI from a pilot delivered in 90 days.

Does Kodora provide AI consulting services outside Melbourne?

Yes. While we are headquartered in Melbourne, we provide AI consulting services across Australia including Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, and across New Zealand. We work with enterprise organisations in person and remotely.

Why most AI initiatives fail

You're not short of AI ideas.
You're short of a clear path forward.

Most Australian enterprises have run AI pilots that never made it to production. The technology worked. The business case didn’t. Or the data wasn’t ready. Or the board wanted proof before approving budget. Effective AI strategy consulting and delivery capability changes that outcome.

No clear ROI case

Boards and CFOs need numbers before approving AI investment. Most teams can’t produce them without external expertise.

Pilots that never scale

Moving from pilot to production requires both strategic clarity and technical delivery capability. Most firms have only one.

Advisors who don't build

Many consultancies hand you a strategy document and leave. You need a partner who stays through to deployment.
