Pricing

Two models. Zero hourly billing.

Custom builds are a fixed fee you agree to before we start. Platforms are a simple monthly subscription. That's the whole pricing page — the rest is detail.

Rule of thumb: if the workflow is unique to your business, own it. If it's an industry problem where live data feeds and compliance updates matter — like Lendric for mortgage brokers — subscribe and let us keep it current.

Questions people actually ask

Who owns the software you build?

For bespoke builds, you do — completely. Code, data, accounts, the lot. It's a deliverable, not a rental. For subscription platforms like Lendric, you licence the platform; your data is always yours and exportable.

How long does a build take?

Most projects have a working MVP in days to a few weeks, and reach production-grade within a few weeks after that. We build AI-native, which compresses timelines that traditional agencies quote in months. Your proposal includes a fixed timeline.

What does the managed service cover?

Hosting, monitoring, security updates, bug fixes, small improvements, and direct support. If something breaks, we fix it — usually before you notice. It's optional, but recommended for anything business-critical.

What happens if we cancel the managed service?

Nothing dramatic — you own the software, so you keep it. We hand over hosting cleanly, document everything, and you (or any developer) can run it from there. Subscription platforms work like any SaaS: cancel, export your data, done.

Are there hourly rates or surprise costs?

No. Every bespoke build is a fixed fee with fixed deliverables, agreed before work starts. If you ask for more scope later, we quote it as a separate fixed piece. No hourly billing, ever.

How do you handle our data and security?

Your data stays yours. We use Australian or regional hosting where required, encrypt data in transit and at rest, and limit access to what the software actually needs. For regulated industries we design to your compliance requirements from day one — Lendric, for example, generates NCCP compliance documents as a core feature.
