Scope, delivery & support

Know what you’re paying for. Know what comes next.

We agree on the scope, delivery model, and ongoing support before work begins. Here’s how we structure custom website and software projects.

Pricing and timing follow the scope: Development estimates are based on your requirements and billable hours. We review the scope, complexity, and expected effort with you before confirming the cost estimate and delivery schedule.
Project contract: source code handover: A project contract includes the full custom source code handover. Your domain and cloud hosting stay in accounts you own, with the agreed handover completed when the project is delivered.
Subscription: a managed product: A subscription provides use of the product with L&D managing and maintaining it. Source code handover is not included by default; access and delivery terms are set out in your agreement.
Support that fits the software: Content changes, new features, and routine maintenance can be billed hourly or through a monthly plan. Pricing depends on the size of your software and the support you need.
Third-party costs stay in your accounts: You pay AI model and API usage, cloud hosting, and external software subscriptions directly through your own accounts, including under our subscription model. L&D’s fees cover the agreed development, management, and support.

A few useful answers

Before we begin.

Can you redesign our existing website?

Yes. We review its current design, content, and technology, then recommend focused improvements or a custom rebuild based on what your business needs.

How much does a custom website cost, and how long does it take?

We estimate development costs from your requirements and billable hours. Pages, functionality, integrations, content readiness, and review needs determine the scope and timeline, which we confirm after reviewing the project.

Will we own the website and source code?

Project contracts include handover of the full custom source code, with the domain and cloud hosting in your accounts. Managed subscriptions provide the product and ongoing management; source code handover is not included by default. The agreement defines the deliverables.

Can you maintain the website after launch?

Yes. Content changes, feature additions, and maintenance can be billed hourly or through a monthly arrangement. Pricing depends on the size of the website or software and the support scope.
