What does AI consulting look like in New York?
New York's enterprise market is the most competitive AI consulting market in the world. Fortune 500 companies, financial institutions, media conglomerates, and healthcare systems all require AI capabilities that deliver at enterprise scale. AIDOLS enters the US market with a differentiated position: autonomous AI systems on fixed fees, with the Build fee refunded in full if the deployed system's ROI does not exceed it within 90 days.
We replace the traditional consulting model — expensive, slow, no accountability — with deployed engineering solutions that produce measurable outcomes in 90 days. For New York's regulated industries, we work within each client's SEC, FINRA, HIPAA and SOC 2 regime from day one.

What do companies in New York ask before hiring an AI consultant?
Does AIDOLS serve US enterprise clients?
Yes. AIDOLS is headquartered in Toronto and works remotely for US enterprises, including New York financial services, media, healthcare and technology companies. US engagements run on the same fixed fees and terms as engagements elsewhere: for a Build, if the deployed system does not generate ROI exceeding its fee within 90 days, the fee is refunded in full. We work within each client's US data-governance regime, including SOC 2.

AIDOLS uses fixed fees rather than hourly rates. The fee is agreed before work starts, and the Build fee is backed by a contractual ROI guarantee: if the deployed system does not generate ROI exceeding its fee within 90 days, the fee is refunded in full. We're more efficient because we deploy autonomous systems rather than billing hours.
