What your custom tool costs after it's built

Three steps. No contracts. No overhead.

01

Friction Audit

Walk through your workflow together. Identify the 3 biggest friction points costing you time, money, or sanity. Half day, fixed price.

02

Build Day

I design and build the solution. Not a wireframe, not a spec doc. A working app you can use tomorrow. $1,000 per build day.

03

Ship It

Deployed, documented, and yours. Cancel the SaaS subscription it replaced. Keep my number for when you find the next friction point.

Tools that fit your exact workflow.

It pays for itself.
