AI & LLM Development
Ship AI Features That
Move the Needle
LLM integration, AI chatbots, RAG systems, and AI-powered features — built by engineers who have shipped real AI products.
From copilots to production-grade RAG
We integrate OpenAI, Anthropic, and Vertex models into your product; build support and internal assistants; ship RAG over your documents; automate document extraction; and design evals, guardrails, and observability so teams trust the output.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers for founders comparing a dev subscription, agency, or first engineering hire — web, mobile, AI, and Shopify.
A dev subscription gives you senior product engineers on a flat monthly plan instead of recruiting, benefits, and bench time. You submit requests to a shared queue, we ship in focused sprints, and you can pause when fundraising or between releases. Founders use Brimode when they need startup-grade velocity without committing to a six-figure hire before product-market fit — similar flexibility to a fractional CTO plus hands-on build capacity.
Most MVPs reach a credible v1 in six to ten weeks, depending on auth, payments, and third-party integrations. We start with a short discovery workshop, lock a thin scope for the first sprint, then deliver weekly staging builds you can share with investors or early users. Marketing sites and Webflow or WordPress launches often ship faster; complex SaaS with Stripe, analytics, and admin tooling sits at the longer end of that range.
We ship daily in React, Next.js, Node.js, Python, Shopify, Webflow, WordPress, Supabase, and Postgres, with Stripe, HubSpot, and major LLM providers wired in when you need them. Choose the stack that matches your team and runway — we will not force a rewrite unless there is a clear reliability or speed win. If you already have a repo, we work inside it, follow your conventions, and document decisions in Notion so your next hire can onboard smoothly.
Plans are flat monthly tiers with transparent per-seat pricing when you add developers, plus optional annual billing bundled into fewer invoices. Engineering time, async updates, and standard deploys are included; third-party hosting, LLM usage, and licensed tools stay on your accounts so costs stay visible. You can pause or cancel when priorities shift — many seed-stage teams run three to six months of build, pause during a raise, then resume for the next launch cycle.
Yes. We scope AI as product features, not science projects: retrieval-augmented search, workflow automations, copilots inside your app, and guarded API routes with evals before production. We integrate OpenAI, Anthropic, or the provider you prefer, log prompts and failures, and ship behind feature flags so you can roll back quickly. Existing users keep the same core flows; AI layers sit beside your current Next.js or API stack rather than replacing it overnight.
Brimode is headquartered in London, UK, with a Johannesburg office that works hand in hand with our UK team. You get UK and European timezone overlap from London, deep build capacity from Johannesburg, and async-first delivery for US, UAE, and global founders. Loom walkthroughs, written sprint recaps, and a shared Notion board keep decisions moving without midnight meetings. We target same-business-day responses on active subscriptions so you are never blocked waiting on an agency in another hemisphere.
You do. Repositories, Figma files, and deployed assets remain in your accounts — GitHub, Vercel, Webflow, Shopify, or your cloud provider. We work as an extension of your team under your brand, and deliverables are yours to operate, sell, or hand to an in-house team later. We can sign standard mutual NDAs and align with investor diligence on IP assignment before the first sprint starts.
Every engagement gets staging environments, pull-request review, and a lightweight QA pass before production merges. We follow least-privilege access, environment variables for secrets, and sensible defaults for auth, rate limits, and error monitoring on Next.js and API routes. For Scale-tier clients we add architecture and security check-ins; for all tiers we document runbooks so your team knows how to roll back and rotate keys after launch.
Bring a clear problem statement, success metrics, one decision-maker, and access to any existing repo, designs, or analytics. We run a structured kickoff workshop to prioritize the first two weeks, agree on definition of done, and set up Slack plus Notion. You do not need a full PRD — we help you shape scope — but the more context on users and constraints, the faster we ship something you can put in front of customers.
Engineering and delivery are included; usage-based bills stay on your cards for transparency. That covers Vercel or AWS hosting, Webflow or Shopify plans, LLM tokens, email tools, and analytics — we forecast rough monthly spend before enabling production AI or high-traffic launches. You keep full control of vendors and can scale infrastructure up or down without renegotiating our subscription.
