How it works

  1. Describe your project's scope.
  2. Enter your hourly rate.
  3. Get an estimated hour range and quote range.

The method

Typical effort ranges for similar project types are matched to your scope description, then multiplied by your hourly rate to produce a quote range.

FAQ

How is the hour range estimated?

A typical hour range is drawn from common effort estimates for similar project types and sizes, then multiplied by your hourly rate to suggest a quote range.

Should I quote the low or high end of the range?

It depends on how well-defined the scope is — quote closer to the high end for vague or open-ended requirements, and closer to the low end for clearly scoped work.

Does this account for revisions or scope creep?

The base estimate doesn't include revision rounds — build in buffer time or a separate revision policy in your actual quote.
