Services & pricing · Laravel & AI

Ship the feature that's stuck — fixed price, in weeks.

Every engagement is a named outcome at a fixed or monthly price — not an open-ended hourly meter. Start small with a paid audit, scale into a build or a retainer. Ranges start where senior EU/US-facing work does; final scope is agreed up front, in writing.

AI Feature Sprint

$9,000–15,000 fixed scope

One production-ready AI feature, delivered end to end — RAG, chatbot, agent, or structured extraction — with the evals and guardrails that keep it reliable. The kind of work agencies quote at $25–40k over months, done by one senior engineer in weeks.

  • Design, build, and deploy
  • Evaluations + guardrails, not just a demo
  • OpenAI, Anthropic, or self-hosted
  • Audit fee credited · documented handover
Best for: SaaS teams shipping their first (or next) real AI feature.

Partnership · ongoing

AI Product Partnership

from $25,000 · or $12–15k/mo

Embedded senior ownership of your AI roadmap — multiple features, evals, architecture, and delivery — like a founding AI engineer, without the equity or the three-month hunt.

  • Multi-feature roadmap, owned end to end
  • Architecture & evals across the product
  • Priority delivery, fixed or monthly
  • Yours to keep — no lock-in
Best for: funded teams making AI core to the product.

Build · milestone-based

Laravel Build / Rescue

from $7,500 per milestone

Greenfield Laravel builds or rescue of a codebase that's become hard to change — APIs, domains, queues, and the tests to keep it stable. Typical full builds land $18k–60k, quoted fixed after a short discovery.

  • Production APIs & domain modeling
  • Legacy refactor & test coverage
  • Milestone billing — pay as it ships
  • Yours to run, fully documented
Best for: founders & teams who need senior Laravel delivery, fast.

Retainer · monthly

Fractional Principal / Lead

$5k · $8k · $12k+ / mo

Part-time senior ownership — direction, architecture, code review, mentoring. Advisory ($5k), Lead ($8k), or Principal (from $12k). A full-time principal costs $180k+/yr plus recruiting risk; this is that judgment, part-time, cancel anytime.

Best for: funded startups & enterprise teams needing senior leadership on tap.

Support · monthly

Support & Advisory

from $2,000 / month

Keep shipped work healthy: maintenance, monitoring, and on-call advisory. Every build can graduate into a rolling support retainer — cancel anytime.

Best for: teams who want the person who built it on standby.

How pricing works

Three rules that keep it fair for you and honest for me.

01

Priced by outcome

You buy a result with a number attached — not an hourly meter you have to watch. Scope and price are agreed before work starts.

02

Small first step

A low-risk paid audit or a first milestone comes before any big commitment — and the audit fee is credited if you proceed.

03

No lock-in

Code, docs, and infrastructure are yours from day one, in your accounts. Retainers are rolling monthly — cancel anytime.

How an engagement goes

STEP 01

Intro call

A free 20-min call to understand the problem and whether I'm the right fit.

STEP 02

Scope & quote

A written proposal: outcome, timeline, and fixed price. No moving goalposts.

STEP 03

Build & ship

Work in the open, shipping continuously so you see progress every few days.

STEP 04

Hand over

Documented, deployed, and yours — plus optional support if you want it.

Pricing questions

How much does it cost to hire a senior Laravel and AI developer?
Engagements start at $2,500 for a fixed-scope architecture audit, $9,000–15,000 for a production AI feature sprint (from $25,000 for a multi-feature AI product partnership), $7,500 per milestone for Laravel builds, and $5,000–12,000/month for a fractional lead. Every price is a named outcome agreed in writing up front.
Is the audit fee credited toward the project?
Yes — the audit fee is credited toward whatever you build next if you proceed. It's the low-risk way to start.
Fixed price or hourly?
Fixed or monthly, priced by outcome — not an hourly meter. Scope and price are agreed before any work starts, so you always know the number.
Do I own the code and infrastructure?
Yes. Code, docs, and infrastructure are yours from day one, in your own repositories and accounts. No lock-in, and retainers are rolling monthly.
