FAQ
Common questions.
Everything we hear most from businesses considering AI for the first time.
How much do BelleMax projects typically cost?+
Pricing on request. We scope the work, then send a written quote before anything starts. See the pricing page for what we quote against.
How long does it take to launch?+
Timelines depend on scope. After we understand the project we share a schedule with the quote — a first website or chatbot is typically weeks, not months.
Do we need technical staff on our team?+
No. BelleMax handles the technical work end-to-end — architecture, build, integrations, deployment, and training. Your team stays focused on running the business.
Which AI models do you use?+
We're model-agnostic. Depending on the use case we deploy the best fit from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, or open-source models — and we can migrate you between providers as the landscape evolves.
Will an AI chatbot work with our existing tools?+
Yes. Our chatbots integrate with common CRMs, help desks, calendars, and knowledge bases (HubSpot, Salesforce, Zendesk, Intercom, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, and more). If it has an API, we can connect to it.
What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and why does it matter?+
AEO is optimizing your content and structure so AI assistants — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google's AI Overviews, Copilot — cite you when answering user questions. As more people ask AI instead of typing into a search box, AEO is quickly becoming as important as traditional SEO.
Is our data safe?+
Yes. We use enterprise-grade providers, keep client data logically isolated, and never train public models on your private content. We're happy to sign an NDA and walk through our data handling before you commit.
Do you offer ongoing support after launch?+
Yes. Every engagement includes a post-launch support window. Longer-term monitoring, tuning, and content updates can be added to the quote if you want them.
