AI Consulting Las Vegas That Actually Earns Its Keep

AI consulting in Las Vegas usually breaks down into two camps: enterprise firms charging $300/hour to write strategy decks no one implements, and ChatGPT plugin shops selling a $30 wrapper as a $5,000 solution. I sit between those — a working developer who's spent the last year as an AI Data Trainer at Scale AI, evaluating and improving production language models. That means I can actually build the thing we just talked about in the call.

What does practical AI consulting for a Las Vegas small business look like? It starts with finding the workflow that hurts. The hour your team spends every Monday compiling a sales summary from three spreadsheets. The customer questions that come in over email and get answered by the same person typing the same paragraph 50 times. The data extraction from invoices, the social media post drafts, the lead routing — wherever the manual work piles up.

From there, we scope a real solution. Sometimes it's a custom GPT or Claude project tied to your data. Sometimes it's an n8n workflow stitching together OpenAI, your CRM, and a Postgres table. Sometimes it's a RAG system that lets your team query your own documents. Each project gets a flat quote — typically $3K to $25K depending on complexity — and ships in 2-6 weeks. No retainers required, though many clients keep me on $300-$2,000/month for ongoing optimization once they see the time savings.

What I won't do: sell you on AI for AI's sake. If your problem is better solved with a spreadsheet template, that's what I'll tell you. If your team isn't going to use the thing we build, the cost of automation is wasted. Most of my consulting time is spent figuring out which problems are actually worth automating and which ones aren't — and that conversation is free.
