How we price
What moves the number, and what never changes.
What drives the price
The number of apps in the release. How much data has to move, and how messy it is. Integrations with systems you already run. Deadlines tighter than the usual shape of the work. How many people the scope needs at once.
What every engagement includes
A senior lead who owns the outcome. AI-assisted engineering, reviewed by senior engineers. Automated tests and written documentation. Code, data and cloud accounts in your name. A weekly update you can read in five minutes.
A straight answer
When our prices are the wrong fit.
You need a site for a few thousand dollars
A template on a hosted platform is the right tool. Come back when it starts costing you.
You want the lowest hourly rate
We price the outcome, not the hour. An hourly marketplace will always quote less.
The budget is not set yet

Questions
What people ask about cost.
Why publish floors instead of quotes?
So you know whether we are in range before you spend thirty minutes with us. Every system is different, so the real number comes after the call.
Is it a fixed price or a monthly fee?
Builds and audits are fixed price for an agreed scope. Leadership and embedded engineers are a monthly fee. Monthly care after launch is a monthly fee too.
Can we pay for a build monthly?
Yes. A full build can be spread into monthly payments across the project. Each one is tied to working software you can open. You do not pay for the whole build up front.
How are monthly engagements billed?
Retainers, care plans and leadership engagements are billed at the start of each month. After the first quarter they run month to month with thirty days notice.
What raises the price?
More apps in the first release, messy data to migrate and integrations with older systems. Tight deadlines that need more people at once do too.
What does hosting cost after launch?
Hosting runs in your own cloud account, so you pay the provider directly. We estimate the monthly cost before you commit.
We already have a hosting or care plan with you. Does anything change?
Existing hosting and care plans continue unchanged; ask us on the call.
