Pricing: USD $30–70 per Hour
We bill by the hour in US dollars. Projects start from $5,000. Before any work starts you receive a written estimate, so the budget is agreed in advance.
What decides the hourly rate
Type of work
Content pages and standard features sit at the lower end. Architecture, security-sensitive code and complex integrations sit at the higher end.
Platform
Native iOS work, platform frameworks and multi-platform releases take more specialised effort than a marketing site.
Timeline
Work that has to be done faster than the normal schedule, or outside Istanbul working hours, is billed higher.
Engagement length
Longer monthly engagements with predictable hours are priced lower than short one-off tasks.
Two ways to work
Fixed-scope project. We write down the features, estimate the hours and agree on a total. Changes to scope are estimated separately before we do them.
Hourly engagement. We work on your backlog and you receive a monthly invoice with hours per task. This suits ongoing products and teams that already have a roadmap.
What is included
- Design in Figma before development (for projects we design)
- Weekly progress updates and test builds on fixed-scope projects
- Deployment, store submission and technical SEO setup
- One month of bug fixes for the delivered scope after launch
- Handover of source code, accounts and documentation
Not included
Third-party costs are paid by you directly: domain, hosting, app store developer accounts, payment provider fees and paid APIs. We help you choose them and set them up.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the minimum $5,000?
Below that budget, the time spent on scoping, design and launch is too large a share of the project. For small fixes on an existing product we can work on an hourly basis.
How do you send an estimate?
By email, after you describe the project. The estimate lists features, hours and the total in USD.
Which currency do you invoice in?
US dollars.
