Engagement Models

How we work together — and what it costs

Clear engagement models built around your stage and risk. No mystery, no lock-in you didn't agree to.

Ways to engage

Three ways to work with us

Most engagements start with a short paid discovery, then move into the model that best de-risks your build.

Fixed-Scope Project

Well-defined scope, fixed price and timeline. Best for clear, bounded builds.

Fixed price

Dedicated Team

A senior team working your roadmap month to month. Best for evolving products.

Monthly retainer

Staff Augmentation

Individual senior engineers under your direction. Best for filling capacity fast.

What to expect

Honest ranges, scoped before you commit

Every project is different, but you shouldn't have to guess. Most first releases and MVPs land in the mid-five to low-six figures; larger platforms are phased so you fund value as it ships. We give you a fixed range after a short discovery — before you commit to a full build.

  • Short paid discovery to scope and de-risk
  • A fixed range before the full engagement
  • You own all code and IP
  • No long lock-ins you didn't agree to
FAQ

Pricing questions
