Diagnostic, consultation and build pricing
Know the budget before we talk.
Every build or fix starts with the $150 diagnostic. After I see what you need, I give you a fixed price; these are not checkout prices. Once we agree on scope, I request 50% to begin and the remaining 50% when the work is complete.
| Service | Price | Scope and payment |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic | $150 | Book and pay through this site. I look at what you want built or what isn't working, then give you a fixed price. Credited toward the work if we continue. |
| Consultation | $500 | Book and pay through this site. An hour with Frank about anything you want to talk through. If you hire me afterward, the $500 comes off the price. |
| Builds and fixes | $1,500 / $3,000 / $6,000 | A website with a back end, an app, an AI tool, or a fix to something you already have. I set the price after the $150 diagnosis, before any work starts. A major build, an app with customers to look after (email support, FAQs and many moving parts), starts at $10,000 plus a retainer to maintain it, priced with the build. 50% to begin, 50% when complete. |
Something to build? Start a build. Something to fix? Book the $150 diagnostic. Want to talk it through first? Book a consultation.
Ongoing support
Tuning, safety monitoring, and reporting are available. The monthly price is set with the build, based on what it takes to maintain. You keep the agent, code, accounts, and operating knowledge either way.
