Should I build an in-house AI team or hire an AI consulting firm?

The decision depends on the capability you already have, the urgency of the workload and who will own the system after release. Gyde can supply a complete delivery POD while transferring implementation and operating knowledge to your team.

How is Gyde different from traditional AI consulting firms?

Gyde engagements produce working software, test evidence and documented production decisions. The POD works with your internal owners throughout implementation and handover.

What is Gyde's POD model for AI delivery?

The Gyde POD is a dedicated five-person team including a Product Manager, two AI Engineers, an AI Governance Engineer and a Deployment Specialist. The team works in bounded cycles with acceptance criteria agreed for each workload.

AI delivery with clear ownership

A cross-functional POD takes a defined workload through implementation, evaluation, governance review and an evidence-based release decision.

The problem

Choose the delivery model deliberately

Three common starting points carry different requirements for people, controls and operational ownership.

Build In-House

Permanent capability requires hiring, delivery leadership, evaluation methods and operating ownership.

Advisory-Led Program

A strategy engagement still needs an implementation team, release criteria and named owners for the live system.

Tool-Led Experimentation

Local experiments need a path into governed data, business workflows, monitoring and support.

The alternative

The Gyde Difference

Embedded POD Model
