What to know first

Estimate project cost from complexity, team size, timeline, integrations, and risk. This guide looks at fixed price vs day rate development projects, using the Project Cost Calculator to turn that into a decision you can act on.

How to use the tool

Enter your own numbers rather than rough guesses — the more accurate the inputs, the more useful the output is for briefing a developer or agency.

When to get expert help

Business-critical numbers deserve a second pair of eyes. Dean Da Dev can turn this calculation into a fully scoped, fixed-price project so there are no surprises later.
