FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much does a website cost?
Websites start at R12,000 for up to 5 pages. A website of up to 10 pages with a content management system (CMS), so you can update the text and photos yourself, starts at R22,000, and online shops, booking sites and member areas start at R38,000. After a short call, we send you a fixed quote, and the price only changes if you ask for changes to the scope.
How long does a project take?
It depends on the project, your quote will include the timeline. A 5-page website may take about 3 to 5 weeks after scoping. For a bigger app it may take 8 to 16 weeks, delivered in 2-week sprints.
Can you add AI features to our software?
Yes. We integrate AI services such as OpenAI into new and existing software, and we have built a recruitment platform that uses AI.
Can you take over a website or app built by another developer?
Yes, in most cases, including unfinished projects. We start with a R2,500 code audit and send you a written report within 5 working days of receiving access. You keep the report whether or not you choose a support plan, and if we can’t take on the work, the report explains why.
