Frequently asked questions
- What is an AI product studio?
- A team that designs, builds and launches AI products end to end, from discovery and prototype to production. Gorilli is an AI product studio in Milan that also runs its own AI products, Kommander, Engammo and LLM Scan, so the team that builds for clients maintains AI software in production every day.
- How much does it cost to build an AI product with a product studio?
- It depends on scope, data and integrations. Our guide puts a typical AI prototype-to-MVP engagement between several tens and a few hundred thousand euros, plus running costs of 20-40% of the build cost per year. Gorilli sets the project price after discovery, and the first call is free.
- How long does it take to launch an AI product?
- A typical path is 1-3 weeks of discovery, 2-6 weeks for a prototype on real data and 1-3 months for an MVP in controlled production. After launch we keep iterating on real usage data.
- How do I choose the right AI product studio?
- Ask which AI products the studio has in production and how it measures their quality, check that the same team can build the backend, interface and integrations around the model, and send each candidate the same brief so you can compare answers.
- What makes Gorilli different from a typical agency?
- We run our own AI products in production, and one team covers product, AI, backend, frontend and cloud. An agency is often strongest on design and marketing and subcontracts the AI and backend work.
- How do you handle security and data?
- Security and governance are part of the architecture: authentication, permissions, audit logs, rate limits, cost limits and fallbacks. During discovery we clarify where the data lives, who can read it and what model providers do with prompts and outputs, taking GDPR and the EU AI Act into account.
