Questions people ask
How much does it cost?
We send a written quote after your request: what it covers and what it does not. The tier, scope and timing set the price.
Could I just use AI for this?
AI drafts code and prototypes quickly, and we use it every day. It cannot decide what to build, prove that it is secure, or answer for it when real people rely on it. That is the part you are hiring us for.
Who owns the work?
You do. Code, designs, files and documents are yours, and the quote says so in writing.
Can we change the scope?
Yes. If something needs adding or removing, we agree it in writing before we do it.
Can we stop?
Yes. The quote states the notice period. Usage such as messages, ads or AI is charged at the rate in the quote and stops when you do.
