A simple single-purpose AI agent (one tool, one use case) takes 1–2 weeks to build and deploy. A production multi-tool agent with CRM integration, error handling, and monitoring takes 3–6 weeks. A complex multi-agent system with custom orchestration takes 8–16 weeks. Timeline is driven primarily by integration complexity — connecting to your existing systems — not the AI reasoning layer itself.
