Cost calculator

What will your project actually cost?

An honest estimator with the same math we use to price real projects. Nothing gated — no email, no sales call.

Behind the number

How the estimate is calculated.

The math isn't proprietary. Here's exactly what drives the number.

Factor

Project type

Marketing sites start around $2,500. Ecommerce with cart + checkout starts around $6,500. Web apps with user accounts + custom logic start around $12,000.

Factor

Page count

The first 5 pages are included in base. Pages 6–10 add $500, 11–20 add $1,500, 21+ add $3,500 — because each unique page template is real design + code work.

Factor

Design intensity

Template-based is fastest. Custom design (built for your brand from wireframes) adds $1,500–$3,000. Bespoke (every screen designed uniquely) adds $4,000–$8,000.

Factor

Content & add-ons

Copywriting is $1,200. Custom photography is $1,500. SEO setup (schema, sitemap, GBP) is $800. Booking or multi-step forms are $800. Integrations run $1,500+ each.

The estimate is a range, not a promise. We add a ±10–15% band around the base number to account for scope realities we can only see once we talk. Your real proposal is a single fixed number.

Questions

About the calculator.

It's an honest starting point using the same math we run internally. Your real proposal is a single fixed number based on a 30-minute scoping call — often within the calculator's range, sometimes below it if your scope is tight, occasionally above if there are complexities the calculator can't know about (unusual integrations, tight deadlines, accessibility compliance work).

Because giving one number without talking to you would be dishonest. Two projects with the same page count can cost very different amounts based on brand maturity, content readiness, and how many decisions have been made. The range reflects that uncertainty.

Ongoing hosting and maintenance (from $25/month), domain registration, third-party subscriptions (Stripe, Mailchimp, etc.), stock photography licenses, and any custom illustration work. Everything except add-ons is included in the design + dev + launch number.

Every project is 50% up front, 50% at launch. For larger projects (>$10k) we can structure a 3- or 4-milestone payment schedule tied to deliverables.

The calculator covers 90% of what we build. If your project is genuinely custom — a booking platform, a SaaS product, a custom CMS — book a call and we'll scope it properly. Those usually start around $15,000.
