Paris carries the program-scale work. Artefact runs 2,500 people across thirty-two offices, publishes the largest body of client work in this register, and took agentic AI across 500 employees at the public investment bank Bpifrance. Wavestone approaches AI from governance rather than engineering, on a practice built around DORA, NIS2, the EU AI Act and ISO 27001. Converteo works from strategy through deployment for large French and international brands, while AI Sisters, Upscale Paris and Mozza sell enablement programs, operating-model change and short audits that decide whether a build is worth commissioning. Lyon is older and different, closer to data engineering wearing an AI label—AVISIA trading since 2007, ActinVision and Datalyo since 2014, DataGenius since 2017 on machine learning for pharma and health. Powehi and Flowt, both founded in 2024, are the young end; Powehi's stated specialty is sovereign, on-premise deployment on open-source models. Price discovery is the hard part. Preste and Serokell publish €45–85/hr and almost nothing else here carries a public rate, which leaves Wavestone's published average daily rate of €944 as the only anchor at the enterprise end. The screen that separates a program from a deck is duration: AI Sisters spent eighteen months embedded in ENGIE GET before four agents ran in production, and Upscale Paris rebuilt a national laboratory group's patient experience over six months. Ask any candidate for its longest single engagement and what was still running when it ended. Then ask who is actually assigned—Artefact's scale means the team that pitches is not the delivery team by default, and Mozza's freelance collective changes bench per engagement. ## Questions buyers ask ### How much do AI Consulting agencies in France charge?
