Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate are your estimates?

I provide ranges (optimistic/realistic/pessimistic) rather than single numbers. My realistic estimates are typically within 20% of actual development time.

Can I use the scope document to hire another developer?

Absolutely. The scope document is yours to use however you want — with me, another freelancer, or an agency. It gives any developer a clear blueprint.

How much does a product scoping session cost?

Product scoping is typically a fixed-fee engagement ranging from $1,000-$3,000 depending on the complexity of the product. It's the best money you'll spend before development starts.
