Consulting

Technical and product consulting for teams that need sharper decisions before committing to the wrong build.

Since September 2026 Fantom Labs is an AI architecture and integration studio, and consulting now runs through the AI advisory packages: a $385 AI strategy session for a single decision, a $1,500 AI opportunity audit for a week of mapping, or a $4,500 to $6,500 AI roadmap sprint for a full architecture and 90-day plan. See the service catalogue and pricing for what each one covers.

Consulting is useful when the biggest risk is not execution speed but decision quality. Fantom Labs supports businesses that need help choosing a stack, reviewing a roadmap, evaluating a vendor, or deciding whether an internal system should be built, improved, or replaced.

The service is deliberately practical. The output is usually a direction, a shortlist of trade-offs, a defined scope, or a delivery recommendation rather than a long report that never changes what gets built.

For growing teams, this can become a fractional leadership layer that helps shape architecture, hiring, quality, and sprint direction without requiring a full-time senior technical hire.

What this typically includes

  • Faster clarity on stack, delivery, and vendor decisions
  • Less risk of overbuilding or buying the wrong thing
  • A cleaner handoff into implementation or partner selection
  • Senior input without a full-time executive overhead burden

Frequently asked questions

Do you offer one-off consulting or ongoing advisory?

Both. A focused $385 AI strategy session covers a single decision, while ongoing support runs as the fractional AI architect retainer at $4,500 to $9,000 a month for ten to twenty hours of embedded leadership.

Can consulting lead into a build engagement?

Yes. It often becomes the fastest path to a correctly scoped project.
