Pricing philosophy

AI helps move faster. Responsibility still matters.

AI can reduce build time, but useful software is still priced around value, risk, clarity and responsibility. BeKubed uses AI to move faster, not to cut corners.

Pricing FAQ

Questions about scope and cost

Why not charge by the hour?

Most early-stage clients need clarity on outcome, risk and budget. Fixed-scope work keeps decisions focused and avoids open-ended billing for exploration.

Can small projects be cheaper?

Sometimes. Very focused work can be scoped below the headline ranges, but it still needs enough budget for responsible delivery.

Can we start with discovery only?

Yes. Discovery is often the right move when the idea, workflow, integrations or budget need more clarity before code.

Do I own the code?

For most build projects, the intended outcome is that you receive the agreed source code and handover materials. Exact terms are confirmed in writing.

What happens after the prototype?

You can test it, demo it, pause, extend it, rebuild the right parts properly, or move into a product sprint.

What are the ongoing costs after launch?

Hosting and infrastructure for most small products runs at roughly £10-£100 per month depending on usage, paid directly to the providers under your own accounts. If you would rather not manage that, BeKubed offers managed hosting and care plans from around £95 per month covering monitoring, updates, backups and small fixes. Either way, running costs are agreed before launch.
