Pricing questions, answered honestly
Why fixed price instead of hourly?
Hourly billing rewards slowness. Fixed price aligns incentives: we ship faster, you know your cost on day one. If a project hits unexpected complexity, we eat the time. If we finish early, you still pay the agreed amount - and we save the rest of our team's week for the next client. Both sides win when scope is locked.
What's not included in fixed-price builds?
Three things: scope changes after kickoff (handled as change orders), ongoing hosting/LLM costs (those go directly to your providers), and unrelated work (a new automation outside the agreed scope is a new project). Everything in the original quote is locked.
How is a $4,000 build different from a $1,000 build?
Three factors: number of connected workflows (1 vs 5+), AI complexity (none vs Claude integration with custom logic), and integration count (3 tools vs 8+). A $1,000 build is one well-scoped workflow. A $4,000 build is a system that replaces 1-2 part-time workers.
Do you take equity or rev-share instead of cash?
Rarely, and only for specific cases (Sellrise.ai launched on a partial rev-share model). Defaults are cash because it keeps the relationship simple. If you want to discuss alternative structures for a long-term project, we are open to it.
What if I need ongoing changes after the initial build?
Three options: pay-per-change (daily rates from $150-250 depending on role), monthly retainer (Maintenance $600 or Active $1,500), or self-service (we hand off everything and you maintain it yourself - this is the default at the end of fixed-price builds). Most clients take the system in-house after launch and only re-engage for major changes.
Why no enterprise tier with seven-figure pricing?
We are a five-person team by design. Bigger deals usually mean bigger teams, bigger overhead, and slower delivery. If you have a $200K+ AI initiative, we will recommend you to a partner who does that work properly - or scope a smaller pilot phase with us first so you do not waste budget on an unproven team.
Do prices change by country or company size?
No. Same scope, same price, whether you are a Berlin SaaS or a Sydney e-commerce brand. The exception is pass-through costs (LLM tokens, hosting) which are charged at cost regardless.
Can I get a discount?
Two ways: longer scope (multi-phase projects with locked Phase 2 get ~10% discount vs sequential), or reference deals (your project becomes a public case study with Review schema and case study page on our site). Both are case-by-case.
