Verdict
IT Partner sells the cheapest chief AI officer retainer read for this page: $1,950 a month, fixed, no long term contract, stop any month. For that you get an AI inventory, a roadmap, a policy set, a tool register, change guidance, a monthly strategy call of up to 60 minutes and a quarterly executive review with a board ready deck. The page says plainly that this is an advisory cadence and not an embedded executive. The firm is a Microsoft partner since 2006, registered in Wilmington, Delaware, with about ninety people.
What customers praise
The price is printed and fixed, billing is monthly with no contract, and the page is honest that you are not buying someone in your office several days a week. For a company whose only need is to get AI use under a policy, this is the cheapest real option here.
What customers criticise
One 60 minute call a month is advice, not leadership, and it will not move a stuck pilot. The offer is built around Microsoft 365 and Copilot. Its page names hands on implementation as a separate service, and hours beyond the cadence are a higher tier quoted in writing.
Best for
A US organisation of 50 to 1,000 seats on Microsoft 365 where staff already use Copilot or ChatGPT and nobody is accountable, that wants an AI policy, a tool register and a quarterly board deck for a low fixed fee.
