How this works

Live calculation. The estimate updates as you fill in the form. No waiting, no submit-and-hope.
AI-adjusted hours. We apply AI-assisted efficiency multipliers to each phase. These are realistic numbers for how we actually build, not traditional team estimates.
Confidence band. More detail on your project tightens the range. The band narrows from ±25% to ±10% as you fill in more specifics.
Phase breakdown. After step 4 you see hours and cost by phase: discovery, frontend, backend, QA, and PM.

Prefer to talk it through?
