How pricing works

Every business is different, so we do not publish fixed price ranges. Each engagement is scoped to your business in a free consultation - we do not bait-and-switch, and we will say if the work is not worth doing.

AI integration & automation

Month-to-month after implementation

No annual lock-in.

Chat and voice agents, review management, scheduling, CRM, and QuickBooks/Gmail back-office — scoped to the workflow that saves you time.

Typical save: 10–20 hours of admin per week.

Custom software and web apps

One-time project pricing

Fixed in a written proposal before work starts.

You own the repository, design, database, and content. No proprietary lock-in.

Production Next.js/React/Postgres apps in 1–2 weeks.

Stack modernization and legacy upgrades

Scoped per project

In the free consultation.

Replatform aging systems, replace spreadsheet operations and ill-fitting off-the-shelf software, connect the tools you keep.

We will say if the work is not worth doing.

Engineering partnership retainer

Optional, month-to-month

Cancel anytime with 30 days notice.

Updates, bug fixes, new features, and new automations after launch. One-off changes can be hourly instead.

A fractional engineering and AI team as you grow.

What you are not paying for: project-manager theater, six-month agency timelines, or a platform you cannot leave.
