Pricing

Engagement models matched to system scope

Serious software work is priced by risk, ownership boundaries, delivery constraints, and the amount of future maintenance the system needs to support. We start by making that scope visible.

Fixed scope

Architecture sprint

A short engagement to turn a product or integration idea into a technical plan, delivery map, repository structure, and risk list.

Product and system boundaries
Stack and infrastructure recommendations
Implementation plan suitable for a team or AI-assisted build

Project quote

Foundation build

A production-ready first version of a web application, GraphQL platform, internal tool, integration system, or reusable package foundation.

Working application and repository setup
Tests, CI, documentation, and deployment path
Handoff notes for future developers

Scoped phases

Modernization and extraction

We help convert an existing project into a more maintainable architecture or extract reusable libraries from repeated project patterns.

Package boundaries and dependency cleanup
Shared runtime libraries and conventions
Incremental migration path with validation

Monthly retainer

Long-term engineering support

Ongoing architecture, feature delivery, code review, automation, and AI-ready maintenance support for systems that need continuity.

Feature implementation and technical direction
CI, release, docs, and quality improvements
Agent guidance that keeps future changes consistent

Next step

Start with the shape of the system

Share the product goal, existing codebase state, integrations, timeline, and what kind of team will maintain it afterward. The proposal can then focus on the real work.
