Start Free ConsultationFrequently Asked Questions
How long does setup take?
Typically 1–2 weeks from deposit to delivery. I configure the agent, build your RAG database, set up office wiring, and test everything before shipping.
Can I upgrade my tier later?
Absolutely. You can start with Tier 1 and upgrade to Tier 2 or 3 at any time. I'll work out a fair trade-in on your existing hardware.
What if I need something beyond RAG?
If your use case requires custom workflows, multi-agent setups, or fine-tuning beyond what RAG handles, we'll cover it in a free consultation and scope the right tier for you.
Do I need technical knowledge to use this?
No. The system is configured and handed off ready to use. You interact with your AI agent through a simple chat interface — same as any other app.
What happens if the hardware breaks?
The hardware is under Apple's warranty (and extended warranty if you purchase it). If something goes wrong, I'll help troubleshoot and coordinate replacement. Your data lives in your RAG database which can be restored to new hardware.
Can I just get the chat bot without hardware?
Yes — see the "AI Chat Bot for Your Website" section above. No hardware needed, I host it and you just drop a script tag on your site.
