Pricing and terms

A fixed budget and defect fixes at our own cost

Five stages with a clear price and deadline: from a specification in 3 days to an MVP you can take to market. Join at any stage and stop once the problem is solved.

What sets us apart

Defects fixed for free

If the result does not match the agreed specification, we fix it at our own cost. That sits in the contract, not in a sales promise.

Support costs pennies

Small text, style and layout changes after launch cost $1-5 each. Changing a button colour does not need its own project stage.

The budget does not grow

The price is fixed before work starts and holds to the end of the stage, with legally binding terms in the contract.

Architecture expertise

We design the system first and write code second. Security, load, resilience and integrations are planned up front.

Stages and prices

Every stage stands on its own: take one, or climb the whole ladder up to an MVP.

  1. A good place to start

    1

    Planning and specification

    $800 Duration: 3 days

    We sharpen the task, shape the product logic and surface weak points and risks.

    • A detailed specification
    • Product logic and user journeys
    • A map of risks and weak points
    • A basis for an accurate budget

    A solid specification saves money and protects you legally.

  2. 2

    Prototype

    $2,400 Duration: 5 days

    A fast working mock-up of the future system you can click through and show.

    • The main screens
    • User journeys
    • Overall system structure
    • Basic interaction logic

    Built to test the idea and agree the direction before development.

  3. 3

    Alpha version

    $4,700 Duration: 2-3 weeks

    The first working version of the product with its core functionality.

    • Key journeys work end to end
    • The system exists as a product
    • Temporary simplifications allowed
    • Secondary features still unfinished

    Good for validating the logic and for an early demonstration.

  4. 4

    Beta version

    $10,000 Duration: 1 month

    An almost finished product for a limited group of users.

    • All core functionality
    • A finished interface
    • Critical bugs fixed
    • Launch preparation

    We collect feedback and bring the product to release quality.

  5. 5

    MVP

    $20,000 Duration: 2-3 months

    A product you can take to market and scale.

    • Enough features for real use
    • An architecture built for growth
    • Prepared for load
    • Easy to support and extend

    No longer a demonstration of an idea, but a working product.

Why every price is individual

Software development has many sides and can span years

This is the full map of a system in the ideal case: six questions (what, how, where, who, when, why) across six levels, from business goals to a working enterprise. Every cell is a layer of work in its own right.

Few clients need the whole framework. The prices above are entry points, not a mandatory bundle: from this map we pick what brings you value right now, either saving money or helping you earn it. The rest joins in once it starts to make sense.

Where to start

We recommend starting with planning. In three days you get a specification you can price against and discuss with any contractor, not only with us.

Free consultation

What the specification gives you

  • covers even the small details
  • removes arguments and misreadings
  • lets the budget be fixed
  • lowers the risk of later stages

What we plan up front

  • security and access rights
  • speed and load
  • resilience
  • testing and support
  • integrations and future work

Guarantees

  • A fixed price The budget for an agreed stage does not change while we work.
  • Terms in the contract Legally binding wording for price, deadlines and acceptance.
  • Free corrections Any defect against the agreed specification is fixed at our cost.
  • Affordable support After launch, support does not turn into another budget.

Support after launch

After release you will not worry about the price of small changes: tasks like these cost $1-5 each on average.

  • adjust a colour or a font
  • change the text
  • move blocks around
  • tweak the styles
  • add a small improvement without a separate stage

Let us price your task

On a free consultation we go through the task, show comparable projects and name the stage worth starting from. We price after that conversation, not before it.

With no obligation to start a large build.
