Frequently asked questions

CleoAI is a custom AI development studio that builds AI models, AI-powered software, and enterprise integrations for businesses. This includes training and fine-tuning models on your specific data, building full software products with AI at the core, connecting AI into your existing systems via APIs, and advising on AI strategy. Every engagement is scoped to a real business problem, not a generic demo.

Ambitious, growing businesses that want to use AI to solve a real operational or product problem — from early-stage startups validating a first AI feature to established companies automating processes that have outgrown manual workflows. CleoAI works with clients in India and remotely worldwide.

CleoAI builds custom AI — not off-the-shelf tools — meaning every model is trained on your specific data, domain, and business rules. Generic AI tools are designed for the average use case and require you to adapt your workflow to fit them. CleoAI does the opposite: the AI is built around how your business actually works, and integrates directly with the systems you already use.

Most projects start with a conversation to understand the problem and constraints, followed by a scoped proposal covering approach, timeline, and cost. Once approved, work proceeds in stages with regular check-ins, and everything is documented and handed over at delivery.

Timelines depend heavily on scope. A focused integration or a strategy engagement can take a few weeks, while a full custom AI model or SaaS product build typically takes longer. Exact timelines are confirmed during scoping based on your specific requirements.

Pricing depends on project scope, complexity, and timeline, since every engagement is custom. Get in touch with details about your project and you will receive a clear cost estimate before any commitment.

Yes — full ownership is handed over at delivery with no lock-in. Everything CleoAI builds, including the trained model weights, source code, documentation, and any datasets created during the project, belongs to the client. There are no ongoing licensing fees or dependency on CleoAI to keep the software running after handover.

Yes. Data security and confidentiality are agreed upon before any data is shared. CleoAI follows a clear data handling agreement at the start of every engagement, and NDAs or confidentiality terms can be put in place beforehand. Data used during model training or development is handled strictly within the agreed scope and not shared with third parties.

Yes. CleoAI aims to be a long-term partner rather than a one-off vendor, and stays involved after delivery as a client's needs evolve, whether that means monitoring model performance, adding features, or scaling an existing build.

Yes. This is exactly what the AI strategy and consulting service is for. CleoAI helps identify where AI would create real impact for your specific business before recommending any build.
