Process & pricing

Clear scope. Fixed price. Shipped work.

Every engagement follows the same five stages and produces a tangible artefact. You always know what you are paying for and what you will receive.

01

Discovery · 1 week

We map goals, users, constraints and success criteria, then propose the shortest route to value.

  • Architecture diagram
  • Fixed-price quote
03

Build · 2-week sprints

Staging environment live from week one. Demo every Friday. You see progress, not status reports.

  • Weekly demos
04

Harden · 3-5 days

Security review, load checks, monitoring, alerting and rollback plans before production.

05

Handover · ongoing

Deploy, document, walk your team through the system and stay available for 30 days.

  • Deployed product
  • Documentation
  • Source & infra ownership

Aftercare

Optional maintenance and improvement retainer so the product keeps moving after launch.

  • SLA response
  • Security patches
  • Continuous improvements
Inside every sprint

People ship. AI assists.

The fixed price holds because AI assistance absorbs variance, not by padding estimates. Accountability stays exactly where it belongs: with people.

  • Specs and scaffolds are drafted with AI assistance and validated by a senior before the sprint starts.
  • Every change is AI-drafted, human-reviewed line by line, and gated by tests and CI before merge.
  • Documentation is generated from the live codebase and engineer-verified at handover.
  • You talk to the engineers who own the delivery: scope, price and production access never sit with an AI.
