How it works
1. Send a brief. Fill in the form below. It takes a few minutes and tells me everything I need to scope the work: what the app does, who logs in, what it stores, and what it connects to.
2. I scope and quote. Within two business days you get a fixed quote for a defined build, or a short call if the project needs a conversation first. Quote in hand, no obligation.
3. I build and deploy. Your kit becomes a working application: backend wired in, data flowing, integrations live, deployed to your hosting and handed over with the full repo.
What a backend build covers
The kit gives you the interface. The build gives you the engine behind it:
- Accounts and access: sign-in, roles, and permissions, from a simple login to multi-tenant organisations
- Data layer: the database, schema, and APIs your screens read from and write to
- Integrations: payments, email, analytics, AI, notifications, and the third-party services your vertical depends on
- The harder parts: file uploads, search, reporting, background jobs, real-time data, or a public API where you need them
- Deployment and handover: everything deployed to your hosting, with the repository and a handover doc transferred to you
Why it is quoted, not fixed-price
A simple booking tool and a multi-tenant SaaS platform share the same kit but are weeks apart in backend work. Pre-pricing one number would either overcharge the simple build or underdeliver the complex one. So I scope from your brief and quote the real thing. The more you can tell me below, the tighter and faster the quote.
What helps me quote faster
Tell me about your build
Required fields are marked. Everything else is optional but helps. One person reads every brief: me.
Prefer to talk it through first?
If you would rather walk through it live before sending a brief, book a 30-minute scoping call. It is $149 and credited toward your build if you go ahead.
