Pricing FAQ

Straight answers.

How do we choose the right engagement?

Most agencies start with the Operations Diagnostic. It produces a prioritized roadmap and makes it clear which larger engagement - if any - makes sense.

Are the prices fixed?

Yes. Every engagement has a defined scope and a fixed fee, agreed in writing before work begins.

Is software included?

Our fee covers our work. Software subscriptions stay in your name and on your account, so you own everything we build.

What if we need something that doesn’t fit a tier?

Tell us. The tiers describe common scopes; we will propose a fixed-fee scope that fits what you actually need.
