Custom software development pricing, scoped on a call
We won't pretend a single number fits every build. So we don't print a rate card. Tell us what you're shipping, and we'll map the cost and the timeline together, before you commit. Start with a paid pilot sprint. If the way we build isn't a fit, you walk away owing nothing. Want the detail first? Our cost and timeline FAQ goes deeper, and you can compare engagement models to see which one fits your product.
A senior engineer from our team works inside yours. They join your Slack, sit in your standups, and ship against your roadmap in your hours. Not a contractor you manage, a teammate who already knows how to build.
- ✓Senior engineer, full-time on your product
- ✓5+ years shipping production software
- ✓6+ hours of timezone overlap with you
- ✓Paid pilot sprint before you commit
- ✓Two weeks to add or wind down
- ✓One rate, salaries and overhead included
A full pod that owns delivery. Frontend, backend, mobile, and QA, run by a tech lead who plans sprints and stays accountable for what ships. We build it with you, not for you over a wall.
- ✓Cross-functional pod (2 to 8 engineers)
- ✓A tech lead who owns delivery
- ✓Sprint planning and daily standups
- ✓Project management built in
- ✓Team shape that flexes with the work
- ✓Month to month, no lock-in
You know what you want built. We scope it end to end, agree a number and a date, and ship it. Best for an MVP, a rebuild, or a new module you need live by a deadline.
- ✓Requirements through to production
- ✓Fixed scope, fixed timeline
- ✓Working demo every week
- ✓You own all the source code
- ✓Post-launch support included
- ✓Technical docs you can hand off
One team that owns delivery
Here's what the rate buys you. A senior team we stand behind, with a lead who's accountable for what ships. One number covers the people, the process, and the management time, so your budget stays predictable and nobody's quietly billing extra. We're a software development partner, which means we own the outcome, not just the hours. If you want to see how the three models stack up, compare engagement models and pick the one that fits where your product is right now.
Software development pricing questions, answered
How does custom software development pricing work here?
We do not publish a rate card, because a real number depends on what you are building. On a short scoping call we map the work, the team shape it needs, and the seniority that work demands, then we put a price and a timeline in front of you before you commit a rupee or a dollar. No estimate-by-guesswork, no surprise line items later.
What does the paid pilot sprint include?
Our engineer works on your actual product for the sprint. Real code, your tools, your standups, the same way the full engagement would run. You see how we build before you sign anything bigger. If the fit is wrong, you walk, and you owe nothing past the sprint.
Are there hidden fees or setup costs?
None. The monthly rate is the whole rate. Salaries, benefits, workspace, equipment, and the management time it takes to keep delivery on track all sit inside it. No setup charge, no per-seat add-on, nothing that shows up in month two.
What changes the cost of a software development project?
Three things, mostly. How big and how senior the team needs to be, how much is genuinely custom versus patterns we have built before, and how long you want us alongside you. A fixed-scope MVP and an open-ended product partnership price very differently, and we walk you through which one fits on the call.
Can I scale the team up or down?
Yes, and without a renegotiation. Dedicated engagements run month to month with two weeks notice to add or remove people. The team grows as the product grows and shrinks when a push is over. No annual contract holding you to a headcount you no longer need.
Do larger teams get better rates?
They do. Past three engineers the per-engineer rate comes down, and we put the exact number together once we know the team size and how long you need it. Tell us the shape of the work and we will quote it on the call.
What technologies does your team build with?
Flutter and React Native on mobile. React and Next.js on the web. Node.js, Java with Spring Boot, and Python on the backend. PostgreSQL and MongoDB for data, AWS with Docker and Kubernetes for infrastructure, and AI work on GPT, Gemini, and Claude when a product needs it. We are a software and product development partner, so we staff the build around what you are shipping, not the other way round.
