Hey folks,
Seeking help from those who have implemented your AI projects. Did you implement it yourself or hire or outsource? Also please share to find the right fit…
- I tried outsourcing earlier through a friend’s recommendation and it did not work out well.
- Tried building my own as well which took enormous effort and is still incomplete.
- Never hired anyone…
I am really looking for a positive outcome this time. Appreciate your response.
If you have the budget, hire and outsource. If your money is more valuable than your time, then learn and DIY.
There’s no guarantee if the outcome would be exactly same as what you want because communication is a key in that and that can be mishandled from both of the sides (client and dev), if you want your developer to build the product as close as what you want, make sure that you’re explaining it to them in the easiest and most understandable way possible.
Try making flow charts, feature lists, rough UIs, user flow journeys, data which needs to be stored etc. Have sessions with your developer regarding these things as well and not just have them started with coding on the first day.
You can hire people to do the above as well but again that comes to what you value the most at the moment, your time or your money.
This is what I tell all my clients before onboarding on a contract with them, and I try to understand what they want first after I am onboarded.
