Pricing

The number, before you ask.

Most studios make you email them to find out whether you can afford a conversation. You cannot put that in a grant application, so here are the actual figures.

Every project is a flat fee against a written scope. The number does not move unless you ask for something that was not in it.

Beyond a website

Software is quoted, not tiered.

Applications, registration systems, dashboards, booking flows and real-time software are not sold by the page and we will not pretend otherwise. Describe what you need and you get a written scope and a single number, at no charge.

$25,000+Applications & systems

$15,000+Large commercial websites

The tiers above cover most websites, including for businesses. A commercial project only lands in this range when it needs accounts, integrations, or something genuinely custom underneath. We will tell you which side of that line you are on before quoting.

Care plans

Optional, and genuinely optional.

Hosting stays free whether or not you take one of these. A care plan buys our time, not server space. Unused hours do not roll over.

About the two build prices.

The lower build price assumes you take a care plan for the first twelve months. That is the only difference between the two numbers.

It is a discount condition, not a lock-in. We want to be clear about what that does and does not mean, because our whole pitch is that you own your site.

After twelve months, cancel any time. No notice period, no penalty, no conversation required.
Nothing switches off, ever. Cancel and the site keeps running. Hosting is still free. You still have every file.
Cancel early and you owe the difference only. The gap between the two build prices, nothing more. No multiplied remainder, no exit fee.
You can start without one. Pay the higher build price and never hear from us again. That is a completely normal choice and we will not push back on it.

Included

What the number covers.

Design. Custom, built around your organization, with two rounds of revisions.
Build and testing. On real devices and browsers, not a simulator.
Hosting setup. Configured and handed over in your name, at no ongoing cost.
Content migration. Moving your existing text and images across.
Handover documentation. Written in plain language for whoever inherits the job.
A training session. We walk one person through updating the site, live.

Not included

What it does not.

Copywriting. We will edit and structure what you have, but we do not write your program descriptions from nothing. We can quote it separately.
Photography. Your photos, or stock you have licensed.
Domain registration. Roughly $25 a year, paid by you, registered in your name.
Third-party fees. Payment processors and donation platforms take their own cut.
Print production. We supply print-ready files. The printer bills you directly.

Payment

How it is billed.

Half to start, half at handover. The second half is due when the site goes live, not before.
You can stop after the designs. If you see the first designs and they are not right, walk away there and owe nothing beyond the deposit. Whatever exists is yours.
Grant-funded work can pay on delivery. If your funding rules require invoicing after completion, say so and we will structure it that way.
Care plans are monthly. Billed in arrears, cancel per the terms above.
Quotes hold for sixty days. Long enough to get through a board meeting.
No deposit to talk. Scoping and quoting are free, including the part where we tell you what we would fix.

Why these are public

Hiding prices is a sales tactic.

A hidden price means the number gets decided after we have worked out what you can afford. We would rather publish it and be judged on whether the work is worth it.

If these numbers do not fit your budget, tell us the budget. Sometimes there is a smaller version worth building and sometimes the honest answer is that you should wait. We will say which.
