## About this market
The Dublin firms here extend client teams in different directions. Version 1 carries the longest documented run: six years supporting National Highways before a managed-services award, and a place embedded as an extension of Foundation Risk Partners' team, where its AI Labs policy-review system cut gap analysis from 40 hours to 4 by the client's own account. Sonalake integrates engineers into client software organizations—Beyond Identity describes them as part of its core team—and its machine-learning record includes a Vodafone cell-congestion forecaster at 87% and 90% accuracy at the 97th and 99th percentiles. Square Root Solutions offers dedicated-team models alongside fixed price and builds and maintains Leinster GAA's platform; its deepest AI build is Druid Learning's content-intelligence platform, processing 500k+ assets across 140+ languages.

For a Dublin buyer the question is how much of your roadmap the extended team should own. A team inside a program that runs for years, as at National Highways, is a different commitment from a few engineers joining your sprint, and the contract shape follows. Ask where the engineers sit: the curator notes Version 1 staffs from Dublin, London, New York, India and Australia, Sonalake from Dublin and its Poznań engineering center, and Square Root should confirm which office staffs your build and at what seniority. Then ask who on the extended team does machine learning rather than platform work, since each portfolio here mixes both, and the curator flags that FRP's headline figures cover a wider program than Version 1 built.

The current top-ranked are Square Root Solutions, Version 1, Sonalake — ordered by depth of documented client evidence, then our editorial scoring (portfolio quality, credibility, completeness); placement is never paid.

### How much does an AI agency cost in Dublin?

### How is the team extension model verified?
Every agency here documents team extension work on its own site or in a published case study, describing the engagement structure rather than a service-list claim. We never infer the model from portfolio tone, so this list only contains agencies that operate team extension engagements deliberately.
