# How Do I Choose the Right AI Development Partner?

Short answer

Pick a team with production AI experience that can explain its architecture clearly.

In detail

Look for a partner with real production AI experience — not just prototypes — who can explain their architecture choices clearly instead of treating the system as a black box. Ask directly about data ownership, what happens if you want to switch providers later, and how they handle failure cases when the AI gets something wrong. Agencies that can't answer these questions specifically usually haven't shipped AI systems that survived real-world use.
