Ask most software agencies what they cost and you get a discovery call, a proposal, and a number tuned to how much they think you will pay. We publish ours. Here is why.
Hidden pricing optimizes for the vendor
When the price is a secret, the vendor captures the surplus. The client who negotiates harder pays less for the same work, and the client who trusts pays more. That is not a pricing strategy; it is an information asymmetry dressed up as one.
What transparency forces on us
- We have to be efficient, because the rate is fixed and public
- We cannot hide scope creep inside a vague retainer
- The conversation starts at fit and value, not at price discovery
What to ask any vendor
Ask for the rate, the team composition, and what you own at the end. If any of the three is evasive, you have learned something important before you have signed anything. Our rates, team shape and full code ownership are on the pricing section of this site — no call required.
