Pricing

Project pricing: fixed or flexible

lanewayssd offers two main funding models. Many projects mix both - surety where you need it, flexibility where innovation continues.

Book A Call

Fixed price

Best when you know exactly what to build. Specs, wireframes, and a detailed task breakdown produce a clear budget and milestones before work begins.

Pros

+See upfront exactly what you get and how it will work
+Budget accurately and set deadlines, incentives, or penalties
+Take preparation docs to seek competing quotes if needed
+Underestimates are our problem, not yours

Cons

-Mid-project changes need a formal estimate and added cost
-Teams may delay useful changes to avoid change requests
-A margin for uncertainty is built into the budget
-Planning takes time before build can start

Flexible pricing

Start with ideas and refine as you go. Ideal for innovative work where the product is still evolving. Detailed weekly tracking keeps spend transparent.

Pros

+Often cheaper, with clear cost per item
+Control how much you pre-plan versus decide ongoing
+Set budgets and deadlines without formal change requests
+Pause or stop at short notice without penalty

Cons

-No single guaranteed price and deadline like fixed price
-Someone should prioritise tasks at least weekly
-User-test completed work on staging before production

Built-in transparency

Ticketing

Every piece of work is tracked with shared ticket numbers so you can see exactly what each item cost to build.

Time tracking

Work is recorded against specific tickets, giving verifiable detail for weekly and monthly reporting.

Reporting

Regular reports help you estimate future work yourself. Scale the team, add skills, or change priorities without long-term lock-in.
