Direct answer
Most clients start with a short discovery or a scoped v1 build. Investment depends on product type, complexity, and must-have features. Use the estimate calculator for planning bands, then a brief for a real quote conversation.
Pricing
Engagement models — not fake package prices
GujjuTicks prices against a clear scope: discovery workshop, scoped project build, or ongoing support. We share ranges early and confirm investment after we understand the work — we do not invent exact price tables for undefined software.
If you need a side-by-side of commercial models, see Fixed-price vs time-and-materials. This page explains how we typically engage.

Engagement models
Pick the shape that matches how clear the work is today.
Clarify
Discovery workshop
A short paid engagement to map users, risks, and a realistic v1 — before you commit to a full build.
Fits: Fuzzy ideas, stakeholder alignment, build-vs-buy decisions
Ship v1
Scoped project build
Fixed or milestone-priced delivery against a written scope: website, MVP, portal, dashboard, or integration.
Fits: Clear outcome, defined must-haves, launch date pressure
Phased
Milestone delivery
Larger work split into payable milestones (design lock, core flows, launch). Keeps cashflow and progress aligned.
Fits: Multi-week apps with natural checkpoints
After launch
Ongoing support retainer
Monthly capacity for fixes, small features, hosting upkeep, and security hygiene after go-live.
Fits: Products in production that still need a build partner
What scoped builds usually include
- Written v1 scope and success criteria
- Weekly demos you can click
- Direct communication with the build team
- Launch path (hosting basics, handover notes)
- Ownership terms agreed before heavy build
What we do not pretend to sell
- Exact rupee packages for undefined software
- Unlimited revisions without scope changes
- Guaranteed App Store rankings or viral growth
- Enterprise compliance certificates we have not contracted for
Planning ranges (indicative)
Use these only for conversation — not as a quote. Final investment is confirmed after scope.
Focused website
Often about 3–8 weeks; investment varies with pages, CMS, and integrations.
MVP / custom app
Often about 6–16 weeks depending on auth, admin, payments, and mobile needs.
Custom software / portal
Often longer when multiple systems, roles, and reporting are core.

How a pricing conversation usually goes
You share goals, users, timeline, and constraints. We ask clarifying questions, recommend workshop vs build, share a range, then confirm a written scope and investment before coding intensifies.
