Maintenance & operations
For anyone running something, built by me or by someone else.
Software nobody maintains becomes a security problem within two years. The cheapest way to avoid that is a small monthly amount instead of a large emergency invoice.
per month · cancel monthly

- One contact, response within 24 hours
Not included
- New features beyond small changes
- Support for your end customers

How billing works
Fixed price, not hours.
You buy an outcome, not working time. The price is set before the start and changes only if you change the scope, in which case you get a new number and a new date, in writing, before I carry on. Payment in three parts: 40% on signature, 30% at the first usable version, 30% on handover.
What I do not do
The fastest way to be believed is to say where I am not the right person:
- Native iOS and Android apps
- SEO or social media as an ongoing service
- Off-the-shelf shop systems: there are better and cheaper options
- Staffing teams or running projects beyond twelve months
Still weighing up the price?
What does it cost?
Development capacity is €680 a day, bookable from five days, with a framework agreement for longer runs. Fixed-price work starts at €2,500 for a website and €9,000 for a custom web application. You get the exact number after a 30-minute call and a written scope, not before, because a number without a scope is worthless.
How long does it take?
A landing page, two to three weeks. A web application, four to ten weeks depending on scope. You see the first working version much earlier, usually after two weeks.
Do you handle maintenance?
Yes, from €90 a month: updates, security patches, backups, small changes. You do not have to take it. But software nobody maintains becomes a problem within two years.
Not sure which of the four fits?
Describe the workflow in two sentences. Working out which one you need is part of the call and costs nothing.
