Most quotes differ because the scope behind them differs, not because one team is cheaper. These are the factors that actually move the number, and they are the same ones the calculator uses.
A brochure-style business website and a multi-tenant SaaS platform share almost no engineering in common. The project type sets the base range because it determines the architecture, the number of user journeys and how much back-end logic exists behind the screens.
Cost tracks the number of distinct screens far more closely than the number of words. Every additional user role multiplies the work again, because each role needs its own permissions, its own views and its own tests.
Customising an existing component system is the fastest route. A custom design system with research, wireframes and a prototype costs more because it is a separate discipline running before development starts — and it is usually worth it for products people use daily.
Features are priced individually because they carry different risk. Login is well understood; multi-vendor payouts, real-time chat and AI document processing are not. Integrations depend on the other system's API quality, which is the single most common source of surprise.
Migration effort depends on the quality and volume of the source data, not just the record count. Messy exports, inconsistent categories and missing images take longer than clean ones. Content help is optional and priced separately.
A standard secure application is included. Sensitive data, healthcare or financial workflows and enterprise security reviews add real work — and must be reviewed by an appropriate technical and legal specialist before final scoping.
A flexible timeline is slightly cheaper because work can be sequenced efficiently. A fixed launch date costs more because it requires parallel teams and tighter planning — not because urgency is billed as a penalty.
A single number implies a certainty that does not exist before requirements are confirmed. A range is honest: the lower bound assumes clean inputs and standard behaviour, the upper bound assumes the awkward cases that real projects contain. As scope becomes clearer the range narrows, which is exactly what the expert review is for.
The calculator prices the scope you selected. A consultant prices the scope you actually need — which is often smaller, because a good first phase removes work rather than adding it. The review is free, takes about thirty minutes, and ends with a phase-by-phase plan rather than a sales pitch.
It produces a planning range based on the scope you select, using the same cost factors we use internally. It is accurate enough to plan a budget and rule options in or out. It cannot see the details that only a conversation reveals — which is why every estimate ends with a free expert review.
No. It is an instant planning estimate. A final proposal is prepared after requirements are confirmed with a consultant, and it supersedes anything shown here.
Scope and feature complexity, in that order. The number of distinct screens and user roles usually moves the number more than design preferences do, and integrations with other systems carry the most uncertainty.
Yes. Choose E-commerce Store, then select the commerce features you need — catalogue and variants, checkout, subscriptions, multi-vendor payouts — and the range updates immediately.
Yes. Each has its own base range and timeline band, and selecting iOS or Android applies a platform multiplier because each platform needs its own build and release process.
Yes. Design is a selectable level, from customising an existing component system through to a full enterprise design system, and it is shown as its own line in the breakdown.
Content help is optional and priced separately. Ongoing hosting, maintenance and third-party subscriptions are excluded — those are recurring costs rather than build costs.
Almost always, and the estimator recommends one. It splits your selection into a sensible first phase and what can sensibly wait, so you can launch sooner and let real usage shape the rest.
Yes. The consultation is free, carries no obligation and requires no payment details. It exists to make the number more accurate, not to sell you a bigger project.
You do. Ownership transfers to the client on completion, and that is written into the agreement before work begins.
