Pricing

Premium in offshore. 40-60% below Western European rates.

A low price isn't our pitch, it's a consequence. We keep the quality of a European agency by cutting the costs that don't serve your product.

Currency
Indicative currencies, billing in USD.

Why we're not the cheapest offshore

A poorly designed $3,000 app costs $12,000 to fix. We charge for a serious methodology: business-rules analysis, clean architecture, tested and documented code, a stable team. You're paying for a system that lasts, not a throwaway prototype.

Two ways to work with us

The Studio, custom-built, managed team

Your system built by a dedicated team: a project manager + a senior full stack developer, starting at $6,000/month. That's our floor, and it's non-negotiable, it's the price of work we won't have to redo. Every team includes the project manager: we don't rent out lone developers, we deliver managed systems.

Scale the team to your velocity:

Mid-level developer2 000 $ /month
Senior developer3 000 $ /month
Expert / Technical lead5 000 $ /month
Mobile (Flutter)+$500 on the profile

Based on 20 working days. Adjustable at the end of each month. Juniors aren't sold on their own: they work on our Modules, supervised by a senior.

Always a project manager, never below the $6,000/month floor. Adjustable at the end of each month, indicative estimate.

What's always included

Daily check-in with your team, written weekly report, direct access to the project manager (reply within 24h), a demo every week.

Ownership (Studio) : your business rules belong to you, fully and exclusively. They will never be replicated for another client. You're buying your competitive edge; it stays yours.

The Modules, ready to deploy, firm pricing
Single-site2-5 sites (+45%)
Inventory18 000 $26 000 $
CRM22 000 $32 000 $
POS35 000 $51 000 $
ERP40 000 $58 000 $

Beyond 5 sites or multi-company: on scoping only.

Scoped deployment: release in the very first week, one month of setup and testing, one month of running-in with your feedback. Customization (~25%): your colors, your fields, your flows, no major business rules.

Ownership (Modules) : you own your instance and your data; the shared core (~75%) stays with Kuiper. Need exclusivity on your business rules? That's the Studio.

Additional costs, announced upfront

Migration of your data (one source, usable formats)3 500 $ flat fee
Complex migration (multiple systems)from 3 500 $, quoted at scoping
Light integration (accounting, emailing…)2 000 $
Serious integration4 000 $
Heavy integration (API, e-commerce, logistics)6 000 $

No surprise line item mid-project: anything outside the scope is quoted separately, before, never after.

After delivery: you choose

Software that belongs to you. Your data lives on your server, no one sees it, analyzes it, or resells it. And you can cut off whenever you want: as soon as the system suits you and stops evolving, you stop paying for development. It stays yours, fully functional. An investment, not a rental.

Maintenance: never forced, always clear

Monitoring only300 $ /monthSurveillance and alerts
Maintenance400-500 $ /monthFixes, field additions, monitoring included
Maintenance + dedicated support500 $ /month+ small changes, a dedicated point of contact

With it, stability is our responsibility. Without it, it becomes your teams', teams we'll have trained. It's a choice, not a leash: the only truly unavoidable cost is your server.

Not sure which model? We'll settle it in 30 minutes.

A 2-minute estimate on the simulator, or a direct scoping call, free, no commitment, and you leave with an honest opinion even if it's not with us.
