In this episode, host Ethan Carter sits down with AI systems consultant Maya Rahman to break down one of the most common business questions: How much does it cost to build an AI chatbot for your business?

They explore why chatbot pricing is not fixed and instead depends on factors like complexity, customization, integration, and ongoing maintenance. From simple FAQ bots to fully integrated AI systems connected with CRM and sales workflows, the discussion highlights what really drives cost—and what businesses are actually paying for.
