Pricing

Three ways we engage. Three ways we bill.

Most engagements fall into one of three buckets — fixed-scope productised offers, monthly engineering retainers, or fully custom builds. Below are starting prices for the productised lane and current retainer tiers. Custom work is quoted after a paid discovery.

Quoted in INR for India, USD for international clients
Productised services

Fixed scope. Fixed price. No surprises.

Standard offers we run repeatedly. Starting prices reflect the typical configuration — final scope is locked in writing before any code is written.

  • INR for Indian clients with GST; USD for international clients
  • Mutual NDA on request, before any project specifics are shared
