How We Think About Pricing

Fair for the work. Accessible for impact. Sustainable for both of us.

Good Work Shouldn't Be Priced Out

We believe professional business solutions shouldn't require enterprise budgets.

If you're doing meaningful work—whether you're a neighborhood NGO, a family business, or a growing company—you deserve thoughtful solutions built with care.

Our pricing reflects that belief.

We Price Based on What You Actually Need

No packages. No tiers. No one-size-fits-all.

We start with a conversation about your reality:

  • Where are you today?
  • What's causing the most pain?
  • What would make the biggest difference?
  • What constraints do you have?

Then we design a solution that fits—and price it accordingly.

1

Value Over Hours

We don't charge by the hour. We price based on the value we're creating for you.

2

Impact Over Scale

A small NGO solving real problems gets the same quality as a large company.

3

Partnership Over Transaction

We're building for the long term, not just a one-time deal.

Two Parts: Building + Supporting

Initial Development

One-time cost to build your solution

This covers:

  • Discovery and understanding your needs
  • Designing the solution
  • Building and testing
  • Training your team
  • Getting everything running smoothly

The range depends on complexity—from simple automation to comprehensive platforms.

Ongoing Support

Monthly partnership to keep things running

This covers:

  • Optimization and improvements
  • Support when you need it
  • Adapting as you grow
  • Keeping systems healthy

Fair monthly cost. Cancel anytime. No lock-in.

What This Looks Like in Practice

Community Organization

User Engagement Platform

The Need

A grassroots NGO needed to manage member interactions, track participation, and coordinate activities. Around 50-100 active members.

What We Built

Simple platform to manage users, track engagement, send updates. Clean, focused, exactly what they needed.

The Investment

Initial development cost equivalent to a month of a junior employee's salary. Ongoing per-user fee that's less than a cup of chai per member per month.

The Impact

Coordinator now spends time on mission, not managing spreadsheets.

Small Manufacturing Business

Internal Operations Platform

The Need

Family business outgrowing Excel. 15-person team needed to coordinate production, track orders, manage inventory, handle customer communication.

What We Built

Custom operations platform connecting their existing tools (WhatsApp, Tally, Excel) with smart automation and clear workflows.

The Investment

Initial development around what they'd spend on 2-3 months of a skilled worker. Monthly support less than their internet and phone bills combined.

The Impact

Owner can finally take weekends off. Team knows what to do without asking.

Solo Professional

Client Management System

The Need

Independent consultant juggling 20-30 clients, losing track of follow-ups, spending hours searching for information.

What We Built

Streamlined system to track all client interactions, automatic reminders, organized documents, clear pipeline.

The Investment

One-time cost comparable to a good laptop. No ongoing monthly—this was build and done.

The Impact

Saves 10+ hours a week. Never misses a follow-up. Looks professional to clients.

When Cost Might Be a Barrier

We're honest about this:

If your budget is extremely limited right now—like truly survival mode—we might not be the right fit today.

We price fairly, not minimally. We can't sustain quality work at rock-bottom rates.

But here's what we can do:

Phased Approach

Start with what hurts most, add more later

Grant Support

Help you find funding if applicable

Clear Roadmap

Show you what to build internally vs. what needs external help

Honest Assessment

Sometimes we'll tell you there's a simpler way

We'd rather be honest upfront than waste your time or ours.

More than invoice size.

Fair Doesn't Mean Cheap

It means aligned with value.

Transparency Builds Trust

Every step, clearly explained.
