Pricing

The number comes before the build.

Fixed price for anything we can scope, monthly for work that is genuinely open-ended, and a flat hosting fee after launch. No hourly meter, no invoice that arrives larger than the estimate.

Hosting and care

What it costs to keep it alive.

Every plan includes hosting, certificates, backups, monitoring and patching. The difference is how much change is included and how fast we answer.

  • Next business day response

Standard

$349/ month

Best for: Sites and apps that keep changing

  • Everything in Essential
  • Staging environment and release process
  • Up to 4 hours of changes a month
  • Performance and error monitoring with alerts
  • Same business day response

What moves the number

Six things that change a quote.

So you can tell roughly where you sit before we speak.

How many user types it serves

One kind of user is a build. Customers plus staff plus an admin is three interfaces, three sets of permissions and three sets of edge cases.

Whether money moves through it

Payments, subscriptions, refunds and invoicing bring tax, reconciliation and failure states that have to be handled properly rather than optimistically.

How many systems it integrates

Each integration is its own small project, and legacy systems without APIs cost more than modern ones with good documentation.

Whether content changes without us

A site your team edits needs a content model, an editing interface and preview. Cheaper to build in at the start than to retrofit.

Compliance and data residency

Health, finance and public sector work carry audit, retention and residency requirements that change the architecture, not just the paperwork.

How fast you need it

A normal timeline is cheaper than a compressed one. If a date is fixed, we scope to the date rather than pretending everything fits.

Questions

Before you enquire.

Fixed, for anything we can scope. You get the number and the date before we start, and a change of scope gets its own written price rather than appearing on an invoice. The embedded option is monthly instead, for work that is genuinely open-ended.

No. Everything we build can be handed over to run wherever you like, with documentation. Most clients stay because patching, monitoring and small changes are the part nobody wants to own, not because they are locked in.

You do, on day one. It lives in your repository and your cloud accounts, and it stays yours whether or not we keep working together. No per-seat licence, no platform you can only leave by rebuilding.

For a brochure site with no integrations, it often is not, and we will tell you that. The difference shows when you need real data, logins, payments, an integration with the system you run, or performance that survives a traffic spike.

Yes, and it is a common start. Two weeks produces a written assessment of the codebase, the infrastructure and the risk, with a plan to stabilise it. You keep the assessment either way.

Then you are talking to the right people. Most of what we build ends up connected to the automation side: the app collects the work, the automation does it. We scope both together so they are not two projects that meet awkwardly later.
