UAE pricing guide

ChatGPT implementation cost in the UAE

There are two different costs to separate: the ChatGPT/OpenAI product subscription and the professional implementation work around your business. iMPLEMENTAi implementation packages currently start at AED 3,500.

Two separate costs

Do not confuse software subscription pricing with implementation pricing.

OpenAI product subscription

Your organisation purchases the appropriate ChatGPT/OpenAI product directly under OpenAI's current product terms and pricing. Those fees are separate from iMPLEMENTAi.

iMPLEMENTAi implementation

You pay for the work of configuring company context, useful connections, reusable Skills and workflows, permissions, approvals, testing, adoption and handover.

Current implementation packages

START · GROW · RUN

START

AED 3,500

For a founder or small team proving a few high-value workflows with simple governance and handover.

RUN

AED 15,000

For broader cross-functional use with multiple systems, permissions, governance, exception handling and adoption measurement.

Final scope depends on the actual workflows, users, systems, access boundaries and acceptance criteria. The package price is not a substitute for confirming fit and scope.

What changes cost

Implementation complexity comes from operating boundaries, not from the number of prompts.

Users and roles

More teams and role differences create more permissions, training and handover requirements.

Systems and actions

Connected tools and write actions add integration, authentication, approval and recovery work.

Workflow depth

High-consequence or multi-step workflows need stronger testing, exception handling and ownership than simple drafting tasks.

Common questions

Direct answers before you implement.

Does the AED 3,500 START price include the ChatGPT subscription?

No. The OpenAI/ChatGPT product subscription is separate and is purchased under OpenAI's own current pricing and terms.

Why not price implementation per prompt?

The valuable work is not prompt count. Scope is driven by company context, workflows, systems, users, permissions, approvals, testing and handover.

Can we start smaller and expand later?

Yes. The implementation model is designed to prove useful work first and expand only when additional workflows, users or operating complexity justify it.

What we built in-house with AI. The iMPLEMENTAi website, brand, copy and SEO/GEO case compares AED 21,000–103,000 of market-equivalent external scope. It is not an implementation quote or audited cash saving. Read the evidence and method →
