Outcomes, Not Hours.
I work on fixed-price engagements. No hourly billing, no scope creep negotiations, no wondering where the time went. You tell me what you're trying to learn or build; I tell you what it costs and what you'll get. Then we get to work.
Everything I deliver is yours — full IP assignment, no strings.
Fast, too. Weeks, not quarters.
Deep Read
$5,000A structured research engagement: competitive landscape, technical feasibility, prior art. I'll write throwaway code if that's what it takes to answer the hard question. You get a clear-eyed writeup and the confidence to move forward — or not.
Proof of Concept
$10,000Your riskiest technical assumption, actually working in code. Clickable UI, findings writeup. The goal is to make the scary thing concrete before you commit to a full build.
Prototype Sprint
$25,000This is what I do. A working prototype with upfront acceptance criteria, an early checkpoint so we can kill it gracefully if the direction shifts, and my full toolkit behind it. I love building prototypes. It shows.
A few things I don't do
- — Long-term maintenance contracts
- — Production systems handling real money or sensitive data
- — Hourly billing
10% off if you let me write about it. I publish case studies on this site. If you're comfortable with that, I'll knock 10% off the engagement price.
