What would your website cost?
Describe the project in your own words. The estimator reads it against our October 2026 price list, asks only what it still needs, and gives you a range with the reasons, in about two minutes. Websites and online stores for now.

Not a calculator.
- 01
It reads what you write.
A form only asks what its builder thought of. You describe the project in your own words, and the estimator pulls out what moves the price: page layouts, what connects, what moves across and who edits it.
- 02
It asks only what is missing.
Up to five questions, each with a Not sure. They are the ones that move the price most for a project like yours, and only those your description left open.
- 03
The numbers come from our price list.
The AI reads and writes the sentences; it never sets a figure. Every line is worked out by plain code from our published price list, inside the ranges on our service pages.
- 04
Checked against real builds.
The price list is tested against builds we have shipped and what they cost, and the estimate shows the nearest one we can name.
- 05
Then a person gives you a fixed price.
An estimate is a range. A 20-minute call turns it into a fixed quote, usually within a business day.
How accurate is the estimate?
As accurate as what it knows: every figure comes from the same ranges as our service pages, and the price list is checked against builds we have shipped. Each Not sure widens the range, and the confidence on the estimate says how much is still open. Budget on the fixed quote that follows a 20-minute call, not on the estimate.
Is the estimate a quote?
No. It is a range worked out from what you wrote and answered, against our October 2026 price list, so you know whether we fit your budget before anyone calls. A quote needs the details a description leaves out. Ask for the 20-minute call from the estimate and we come back with a fixed price, usually within a business day.
What happens to what I type?
It is used for this estimate and not stored. Your description goes to Anthropic's Claude to be read into a scope, under Anthropic's commercial terms, and our server keeps only an anonymous log of the kind of project, the range and what the estimate cost to run. If you email the estimate to yourself or ask for a call, we keep that email so we can reply.
Why does it ask questions?
Because what moves a website's price is rarely in a first description: how many different page layouts, what has to connect, how much content moves across and who will edit it. It asks five at most, only those your description left open, and each has a Not sure. A blank answer widens the range instead of guessing.
Can it price an app or an automation?
Not yet: it prices marketing sites and online stores, on a Shopify theme or a custom storefront. Web and mobile apps and AI automation are priced differently, so tell us about yours and we come back with a range, or read what a web app costs in Australia.
Is this a website cost calculator?
Of a kind, without the form. A calculator multiplies the boxes you tick; this reads your own description, asks what is missing, and prices it line by line from our published price list, with the running costs and the nearest real build beside it. It is free and asks for no email unless you want the estimate sent to you.
