Free business tools
Get a rough budget range and timeline from the main things that drive app effort.
These tools are intentionally practical. They help founders, operations heads and managers frame a requirement before contacting a development team.
Plan before you build
All results are rough planning estimates. For production software, we review process, data, users, security and integrations before quoting.
Calculators are often the first step toward a useful internal tool: quotation builders, stock planners, project estimators, payroll helpers, school fee calculators or customer self-service portals.
Build a Custom CalculatorEnter the number of screens, integrations and user roles, and say whether you need a mobile app. The result is a planning range based on our own rule of thumb, so treat it as a guide until you have a quotation. A real quote depends on your workflows, data, security and integrations.
An app with 20 screens, 2 integrations and 3 user roles has more to design, build and test than one with 10 screens and no integrations. Changing one input at a time shows which part of your plan affects the estimate most.
Early requirements leave many details open, such as complex rules, data migration and security needs. A range is more honest than a single number at this stage.
Reduce the first release to the journeys that matter most, limit integrations at the start and add other features after real users have tried it.
