We develop your AI project while simultaneously building and training your dedicated team.

How Build to Hire Works
Citric Sheep works different from other development teams. We won't leave you with a costly support bill at the end. Our mission is to support your business by transferring our knowledge to your team.
1. Develop
We build your AI solution with our expert team, delivering results from day one while documenting every step of the process.
2. Train
Simultaneously, we recruit and train your dedicated team, transferring knowledge and best practices throughout the development process.
3. Transfer
Your team gradually takes ownership with our ongoing support, ensuring a smooth transition and continued innovation.
