What it costs

How much does a custom app cost?

Honest answer: it depends on the job, which is why there’s no price list. What I can tell you is what drives the cost, and that you get a quote before anything is built.

What drives the cost

Already built: Six working apps, for church production and small business.

What it could look like

Quoted first

Tell me the problem, and you get a quote before anything is built.

Start small

The smallest version that fixes the problem usually costs the least and teaches the most.

Support if you want it

Support is available after handover. We’ll work out what suits you.

What people ask first.

Is a custom app worth what it costs?

Compare it with what the problem costs now, including the costs you don’t see: people repeating the same task when their time could go somewhere better, and one problem spreading into other parts of the business. The real cost of a problem often isn’t clear until it’s solved. When the app costs less than the problem and makes your business run better, it’s almost always worth it.

Can I start small?

Yes, and it’s usually the better way. I build the one part that saves the most time first, you use it, then you decide what’s next.

What does it cost?

It depends on the job, so there’s no price list. First we talk through how you work and where it hurts. That’s a conversation, not a sales pitch. Then you get a quote that lists the cost and exactly what’s included, and nothing is built until you approve it.

Is my problem too small?

Probably not. A five minute job someone redoes every week used to cost more to fix than to put up with. AI has lowered the cost of building good software, and I still design, check and test every part of it. Now leaving the problem alone is usually the expensive option.

Will my team actually use it?

Most of what I’ve built is used by church volunteers who get no training at all. If a tool hasn’t paid off in the first two minutes, nobody opens it again, so that’s the bar.

What happens after it’s handed over?

If something needs fixing or changing, email me. I’ll look at it, tell you what it’ll take, and start once you’ve approved the quote.

Who owns it?

You do. Your data and the code belong to your business, so you’re never stuck with me. If it’s a tool several businesses share, there’s a monthly fee instead, and we’ll agree an arrangement that works for both of us before anything starts.

Have a problem like this?

Let’s have a chat. It goes straight to me, and I’ll reply by email.
