How much does it cost to build an AI agent in 2026?
Building an AI agent in 2026 costs from $2,500 for one AI feature in an app you already have, from $4,500 for a first agent connected to your systems, and from $6,500 for a wider build with an admin console or mobile app, based on Ailixar's published prices. Model usage and hosting are extra and billed at cost. A two-week, $950 audit gets you a fixed quote before you commit.

Laravel AI SDK tutorial: build a production AI agent
To build an AI agent with the Laravel AI SDK, install laravel/ai, generate an agent class, give it tools that read your data, and test it with the SDK's fakes. This guide walks through each step with code for laravel/ai 1.2 on Laravel 13, plus the production parts: scoping tools to the signed-in user, human approval before any change, conversation memory and cost limits.

AI dispatch assistant for NEMT operators
Your dispatchers ask in plain English, such as which pickups are running late or who is free near an address at 2 p.m., and get answers from your own live trip data. It reads only until you say otherwise, a person approves anything that would change a trip, and every answer is logged. Start with the $950 AI Workflow Audit; the build is a fixed price from $4,500.

AI Workflow Audit
The AI Workflow Audit, also called an AI readiness audit, is a two-week, $950 engagement that maps one workflow, checks your data and systems, and ends with an architecture sketch, a build plan and a fixed quote. The plan is yours to keep. If you start the build with us within 60 days, the $950 is credited against it.

AI agent data security: how we handle your data
When we build an AI agent, your data stays in your systems and the agent reads it through narrow, read-only tools limited to what the signed-in person may see. Anything that changes data goes to a person for approval, every AI action is logged, and we never use your data to train models. These are the practices we build to. We don't hold a security certification.

Questions about cost, timing and ownership.
Cost, timing, ownership and your data.
Ailixar is an AI build studio. We build AI agents that answer from your own data and act in your systems after a person approves, plus the web and mobile software around them: dispatch platforms, field-service apps, safety and compliance systems, and AI features in apps you already have.
A paid workflow audit is $950, credited against a build started within 60 days. Fixed-scope builds start at $2,500 for one feature, $4,500 for a first AI workflow and $6,500 for a wider build with a mobile app. Dedicated developers are $31 to $36 an hour. Model and hosting costs are billed at cost.
A first AI workflow usually takes three to six weeks from signed scope to live. Larger platforms ship in phases, each ending with something you can use, and you see working software every week.
You do. Code lives in your repository from day one, and the code, prompts and configuration we build are yours once paid for. Our reusable tools stay ours and are licensed to you. Your data is always yours.
