AI consultancy for D2C ecommerce
Looking for an AI consultancy or automation agency in Illinois? The Margin Labs builds AI systems for direct-to-consumer ecommerce brands, working remotely with Illinois businesses. Illinois is a central US state with a diverse economy spanning logistics, manufacturing, finance and agriculture. We start with a free gap analysis: seven days mapping where AI pays back in your operation, costed and ranked, with the roadmap yours to keep. We then build the first system on that roadmap at no cost, and you pay only once it hits a target the roadmap named in writing beforehand.
A simple guarantee
If we cannot map at least three quick wins for you on the call, you walk away with a written referral to a more relevant specialist. No charge, no hard feelings.
AI consultancy questions
Do you offer AI consultancy and automation in Illinois?
Yes. We work remotely with D2C ecommerce brands across the UK, US, Europe and Australia, including Illinois, so you get the same senior, founder-led engineering wherever you are based.
What does an AI consultancy do?
A traditional AI consultancy analyses your business and leaves you a deck of recommendations. The Margin Labs builds instead. We run a free gap analysis, hand you a costed roadmap you keep, then build the first system on it at no cost. You pay only once that system hits a target the roadmap named in writing beforehand.
What is the difference between an AI consultancy and an AI agency?
An AI consultancy usually means strategy and roadmaps. An AI agency usually means outsourced builds. We do both, and we carry the risk: the roadmap states what the first system must achieve before we build it, and if it misses that target you pay nothing.
Who do you work with?
Direct-to-consumer ecommerce brands on Shopify or Shopify Plus turning £1m to £10m, importing stock and fulfilling through a 3PL. We work remotely across the UK, US, Europe and Australia.
How much does an AI consultancy cost?
The gap analysis is free and the roadmap is yours to keep. The first system is built at no cost, and you pay only once it hits its written target. Ongoing work is costed per system inside the roadmap, and most brands run between £2,950 and £8,950 a month once the first system is live.
Which AI tools and platforms do you use?
We are deliberately tool-agnostic. Systems are built on the stack you already run, with no migrations, and we choose models and platforms per problem rather than per vendor relationship. The roadmap names every tool and what it costs a month.
