How We Price Work
Most agencies give you a number and hope you do not ask how they got there. We show you the system. Every ticket, every feature, every piece of work is pointed using a Fibonacci scale: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21. The gaps between numbers grow as complexity grows, because larger work carries more unknowns. You see the point, you see the range, you know what you are paying for and why. The point value is based on complexity, risk, and scope, not hours.
| Point | Range | What This Typically Covers |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | $50 to $149 | Config change, copy update, minor fix. Under an hour of engineering time. |
| 2 | $150 to $499 | Small feature, integration tweak, single-component work. Half a day. |
| 3 | $500 to $2,499 | Meaningful feature build, API integration, workflow automation. One to three days. |
| 5 | $2,500 to $7,499 | Multi-component feature, new module, significant infrastructure work. One to two weeks. |
| 8 | $7,500 to $12,499 | Large feature set, cross-system integration, platform-level work. Two to four weeks. |
| 13 | $12,500 to $16,499 | Major platform module, full vertical slice of functionality. Four to six weeks. |
| 21 | $16,500 to $21,000 | Full system build, multi-module delivery, architectural overhaul. Six to eight or more weeks. |
