Pricing

Pricing & how I work.

Stated up front so you can self-qualify before we ever talk. Well above a template freelancer, well below what an agency would quote you.

Software & data engineering

Apps, data pipelines, APIs & AI integrations

Contact for rate

Most marketing sites land in the low to mid part of their range; the top end is for larger page counts, custom design systems, or integration work.

Process

How a project runs.

A real process, the same discipline an agency uses, run by one accountable person instead of a relay of coordinators.

  1. 01Week 1

    Discovery & scope

    We get clear on the goal. I write up the context, audience, brand, structure, pick the right tool for the job, and send a fixed-fee proposal with explicit scope, price, and timeline.

  2. 02Weeks 2–3

    Design

    Direction first, then full page comps you review. For larger jobs I bring in a trusted design partner; either way you see it before it gets built.

  3. 03Weeks 3–5

    Build

    The production phase. Fast, because I use the right tooling, but every decision gets senior judgment and a real review before it ships.

  4. 04Week 5–6

    Launch

    Performance pass to clear Core Web Vitals, QA, analytics and SEO checks, then go live.

  5. 05Ongoing

    Handoff or retainer

    Sites come with a walkthrough and docs so your team can edit and run them yourself. Stay on a support retainer if you want me in your corner.

The fine print

Plain terms, before we start.

Fixed-fee sites, hourly engineering
Website builds are quoted as a fixed fee up front. Engineering runs hourly or scoped. Either way, the terms are clear before we start.
No discounts, I resize scope
If the budget is tight, we cut scope to fit. Same work never drops in price.
50% to start, balance at launch
Simple milestone terms, stated in the proposal. Larger builds split into more.
Retainers are breakable
Month-to-month with notice on both sides. No hostage contracts.
