An AI consulting firm for businesses across the USA.
CB Consulting Group is a founder-led AI and technology consultancy that works remotely with US businesses. From Ahmedabad, India, we help founders, growing companies and agencies across the United States plan AI adoption, automate workflows, build software and get senior CTO advice, with fixed-price projects and a no-obligation first call.
Working across US time zones.
Ahmedabad runs on India Standard Time (IST, UTC+5:30). Our evening overlaps the US East Coast morning, so live calls usually land early in your day, and we arrange them to suit your time zone rather than ours.
The time difference means some work can happen outside your hours. Every message gets a reply within one business day.
- Eastern Time: 9:00 a.m. EDT is 6:30 p.m. in Ahmedabad; 9:00 a.m. EST is 7:30 p.m.
- Central Time: 9:00 a.m. CDT is 7:30 p.m. in Ahmedabad; 9:00 a.m. CST is 8:30 p.m.
- Mountain and Pacific Time: the overlap is narrower, so calls are booked early in your morning or by arrangement
- India does not observe daylight saving time, so the gap shifts by one hour when US clocks change in March and November
Services for US businesses.
Eight ways we help American teams, from a first AI roadmap to an offshore development team that ships while your office is closed.

ExploreHow an engagement works.
Remote first, from the first call to the final handover, so nobody needs to get on a plane for the work to get done.
Step 1
A 30-minute discovery call
A no-obligation video call at a time that suits your US time zone. You explain the problem; we ask the questions that matter.
Step 2
A fixed-price proposal
A written scope with a fixed price agreed up front, so your budget is settled before any work begins.
Step 3
Delivery in visible steps
Work arrives in small, reviewable pieces, so you can check progress and change course early.
Step 4
You own everything
All code and IP belong to your company. Ongoing help, if you want it, runs on a retainer scoped to your needs.
Data protection for US companies.
The United States has no single national privacy law, so the rules depend on where your customers live and what data you hold. We settle this before work starts, not halfway through a build.
- Before work starts, we agree how your data is handled: what we can access, why, and where it is stored
- Systems are designed around the US state privacy laws that apply to you, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act
- Before work starts, we agree in writing what access the project needs
- As an Indian business, we also handle personal data under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 (DPDP Act)
Questions from US businesses.
For pricing and general questions, see the services overview.
Can an India-based consultancy work with US companies?
Yes. We work remotely with businesses across the United States and agree the essentials before work starts: the scope, a fixed price for the project and how your data is handled. You deal directly with Chirag, the founder, who has 25+ years in technology, and your company owns all code and IP we produce.
Will you work in our time zone?
We arrange calls to suit your time zone. The evening in Ahmedabad overlaps the US East Coast morning, so live meetings usually happen early in your day. Every message gets a reply within one business day.
How do you price projects for US clients?
Every project is quoted individually, with a fixed price agreed up front before work starts, so the budget is settled before anything is built. Ongoing support, such as fractional CTO time, runs on a retainer scoped to what you need. The first step is always a 30-minute, no-obligation discovery call.
Who owns the code and IP?
You do. All code and intellectual property we create for your business belongs to you. That is part of every engagement, so investors, acquirers and future developers never have to ask who owns your product or whether they can build on it.
