How we work together.
Three ways to engage, priced for the shape of the work. These are honest starting points — you'll get a written estimate for your actual project after a short call.
Project
A defined build with a clear outcome — an MCP server, a storefront, a feature.
From $200 / ₹20,000
Fixed-scope, milestone-based.
- Scoping workshop and a written plan
- Milestone delivery with working software
- Code, tests, and documentation
- A handoff walkthrough for your team
Retainer
Continuous work — you have a roadmap and want a senior engineer on it every month.
From $60 / ₹6,000 per month
Monthly, capacity-based.
- A reserved block of capacity each month
- Priority on your queue
- Async-first communication and weekly updates
- Pause or adjust with notice
Advisory
You need a senior second opinion — architecture reviews, hiring input, direction.
From $20 / ₹2,000 per hour
Hourly or async, no minimum.
- Architecture and code reviews
- Written recommendations you can act on
- Async Q&A within a business day
- No long-term commitment
No surprises on the invoice.
Milestones, not mystery
Projects are split into milestones with clear deliverables. You know what you're paying for and when.
Invoicing & payment
[OWNER: confirm terms] Invoiced per milestone or monthly. Payments via Razorpay (cards, UPI, bank) once that's live. Deposits secure the start date.
Currencies
Priced in USD for international clients, with an INR equivalent for India. GST applied where applicable.
