Custom software cost calculator.

Five quick questions — one transparent price band and timeline. Based on the same pricing model we use for real Pythn quotes, matched to the 2026 cost guide.

Why this is close to what you’ll actually be quoted.

The bands are the same ones we use internally at Pythn. They reflect real 2026 costs for senior-engineer builds — not agency rate cards, not offshore quick-builds. The calculator weighs the five variables that drive nearly every quote: scope, user count, integrations, admin tooling, and payments.

The output is still an estimate, not a quote. A real quote comes after a free discovery call, a written scope document, and a fixed price you sign off on before we write any code. If your project has unusual constraints — compliance, migration from an old system, an unusual data model — those can push the number up or down.

For the full model, including the four variables behind the bands and the three rules of thumb for estimating your own scope, read the 2026 cost guide.
