## FAQ

### Why 'from' prices?

Each price is where that kind of work starts. Your exact price depends on your scope. I put it in writing, and work starts only once you approve it.

### What moves the price?

The size of the scope, the integrations involved and the state of the app I start from. Your written quote says what moved the price before you approve it.

### Is the price fixed once I approve it?

Yes. The price you approve in writing is the price you pay for that scope. If something comes up that changes the scope, I raise it before the extra work is done, and you decide whether to add it.

### Is anything charged before I approve the price?

No. Nothing is charged before you approve a written fixed price. After that, payment follows the payment terms above.

### Do you bill by the hour?

No. Fixed-scope work has a fixed price in writing. Ongoing Bubble development is sold as a monthly block of hours: 8 hours a month at $1,000/month, and most clients land around 20 hours a month at $2,500/month. There is no hourly rate. CTO as a Service is one monthly price, billed in advance.
