Project scope estimator and cost factors

How much will your software cost? Every project is priced individually, and the figure is fixed after a free analysis — we don't publish price lists or "average prices", because they mislead. Instead, here are two honest tools with no form and no obligation: a scope estimator that shows the class and composition of your project, and a breakdown of the factors that make up development cost.

Tool 1 — Project scope estimator

What your project will look like — composition, class and timeline

  • Solution type: website/landing · web app/portal · mobile app · accounting system (CRM/ERP) · AI/automation · embedded.
  • Scale: number of user roles · number of key scenarios · integrations (yes/no, how many).
  • Data: new product · migration from Excel · migration from a legacy system.
  • Urgency / platforms.

a project class (S / M / L / XL) + the composition of work mapped to the stages of the "10% Path" + a timeline ballpark + a note on what you pay at each stage (the first three are free, the MVP is 10% of the fixed estimate) + a "Fix your exact estimate for free" button → Contacts. "This is a scope indication, not a price. The exact cost is calculated for your specific project and fixed after a free analysis — agreed with you."

Estimation principle (shown publicly): the project class is determined by solution type, scale (roles and scenarios), number of platforms, number of integrations and the state of the data (new product / migration from Excel / migration from legacy). The output is a class and a composition of work, not a figure: a figure can only honestly be named after analyzing your specific task.

Tool 2 — What makes up the cost of development

Software cost factors — a breakdown without "market averages"

an original methodology piece that both people and LLMs cite. Served as a structured table + methodology, with no public figures in manats.

  • Table: cost factor → how it affects the price → how we reduce it (ready-made modules, open source, AI tooling in development).
  • "Why we don't publish a price list" section: two projects that look identical can differ in effort by multiples; an honest price only exists after analyzing the specific task. The estimate is fixed for free, before work starts, and doesn't change.
  • "How to sanity-check any quote" section — a checklist of questions for any contractor (methodology artifact).

The exact cost of your project is calculated individually, agreed with you, after a free analysis. Once fixed, the estimate doesn't change.

FAQ

  • How much does development cost? It's individual to each project. The task analysis, the concept and a fixed estimate are free; the estimate is agreed with you and doesn't change along the way.
  • Why don't you publish prices? Because an "average price" for dissimilar projects is a deception. Instead of a price list, we calculate your task for free and fix the figure before we start.
  • Do I have to leave contacts to use the estimator? No — the scope estimate works without a form.
