The number we quote is the number you pay.
LOJI is a Texas product engineering firm, and we price like one: fixed, not hourly. Quotes are free. Consulting and full readiness audits start at $4k, and most full builds land near $40k. Every build starts with a scoped plan and a fixed quote in your hands before you commit to the spend.
The quote is free. The deep look starts at $4k.
This is where the work stops being vague. We are not using your build budget to figure out what the project is. The quote costs nothing, and when you want more than a quote, consulting sprints and full readiness audits start at $4k.
Free
The quote
Tell us what you are building and where it stands. We reply within a day with an honest read on the right next step and a fixed price in writing. No charge, no meter, no obligation.
- An honest read on the right next step
- A fixed quote in writing for a scope in writing
- A reply within a day
From $4k
Consulting and full readiness audits
For teams that want depth before a build, or instead of one. We take a deep look at your systems and your plans, then hand you a plan you can act on, with us or without us.
- Where AI actually fits your business
- What to fix first, and in what order
- A risk map that names the technical and product risks up front
- A scoped plan with what it will actually cost
What a ~$15k build buys, and what a ~$40k build buys.
Ranges without examples are useless, so here are two typical shapes. These are archetypes to calibrate expectations, not past client projects. Your number comes out of the free quote, against your scope, in writing.
Around $15k
A single-workflow internal tool
The shape: your team runs a process on spreadsheets and email, and it needs to become software.
- One core workflow, built end to end
- User accounts and authentication
- One integration (payments, a CRM, or an internal system)
- An admin view for the team running it
- Deployed to production with logging and backups
Around $40k
A customer-facing product
The shape: real customers pay to use it, so it has to hold up.
- Accounts, roles, and permissions
- Billing and subscriptions
- An AI feature built with security and output validation in mind
- Admin tooling and reporting
- Monitoring, alerting, and a security pass before launch
- A support plan in place from day one
Smaller than either of these? Ask anyway. The quote is free. Bigger? The plan scales, not the surprise.
If the build takes longer than we quoted, that is our cost. Not yours.
Quoted equals paid. That is the whole guarantee, and it only works because we scope carefully before we quote. It is also why the quote comes first and costs nothing.
Fixed, not hourly
There is no meter. You are buying an outcome for a price, not blocks of time, and there is no surprise invoice at the end of the month.
Misjudged effort is on us
The quote is attached to a written scope. If the work takes longer than we planned, we absorb the difference.
New scope gets a new quote
Mid-build ideas are queued and quoted before work starts, so scope changes are visible instead of invisible. Nothing slips into the invoice quietly.
Four phases. Each one earns the next.
Estimate
Free. We define what the build has to prove, map where the risk lives, and put a fixed quote on the scope. You leave with a number you can act on, with us or without us.
Validate
Before heavy engineering spend, we align on UX, product flow, architecture direction, and the first build backlog. This is where we settle the questions that usually get discovered too late.
Build
Work runs in controlled sprints against the quoted scope. New requests are queued and quoted instead of quietly slipping into active delivery, which keeps velocity measurable and the price honest.
Support
After launch, support plans cover hosting, logging, monitoring, and the management that keeps the app healthy, plus minor changes inside a small monthly budget. Larger plans earn discounts on future scopes of work.
The full operating model, including support tiers and the commercial guardrails, lives on how we work.
Support is priced as a plan, not as a favor.
Every support plan covers hosting, logging, monitoring, and the management that keeps a production app healthy, plus a small monthly budget for minor changes. Larger plans earn discounts on future scopes of work. Support work and feature delivery are tracked separately, so production noise never hides roadmap cost.
The questions people actually ask.
Is the quote really free?
Yes. Tell us what you are building and we reply within a day with an honest read on the right next step and a fixed price in writing. There is no charge and no obligation. If the right answer is not to build, we say so before you spend anything.
What do consulting and readiness audits cover?
Consulting sprints and full readiness audits start at $4k, and we scope them to your systems. You get a deep look at where AI fits your business, what to fix first and in what order, a risk map that names the technical and product risks up front, and a scoped plan with what it will actually cost. The deliverables are yours whether or not you build with us.
Do you work hourly?
No. We quote a fixed price for a written scope and that is the price you pay. There is no meter running and no surprise invoice at the end of the month.
What happens if the build takes longer than quoted?
That is our cost, not yours. The quote is attached to a written scope, so if we misjudged the effort, we absorb the difference. If you add new scope mid-build, we quote it separately before any work starts.
What does a typical build cost?
Quotes are free, consulting and full readiness audits start at $4k, and most full builds land near $40k. As typical shapes: a single-workflow internal tool with authentication and one integration tends to land around $15k, while a customer-facing product with billing, roles, AI features, and a support plan tends to land around $40k. Your exact number comes out of the free quote, in writing, before you commit to a build.
What if I only want the plan, not the build?
That is fine. A consulting sprint or readiness audit is built for exactly that: the scoped plan, the risk map, and the honest read are yours to keep. Some projects should not be built yet, and telling you that is part of what you are paying for.
What happens after launch?
Support plans cover hosting, logging, monitoring, and the management that keeps the app healthy, plus minor changes inside a small monthly budget. Larger plans earn discounts on future scopes of work.

Tell us what you are building. We reply within a day with an honest read on the right next step and a fixed price to start, at no charge. Want depth first? Consulting and full readiness audits start at $4k. Worst case, you spend $4k and learn your project should not be built yet. That is cheaper than finding out at $40k.
