Engagement Models & Pricing

Pricing models that match how you want to work

There's no single right way to budget for software — it depends on how defined your scope is and how much control you want. Starintek offers a clear set of engagement models, transparent estimates, and visible cost tracking, so you always know what you're paying for.

Our engagement models

Fixed Price

A set price for a clearly defined scope.

Best for well-specified projects, MVPs, or first engagements where you want budget certainty up front.

Time & Materials

You pay for the time and resources actually used.

Best for evolving products where requirements will change and you want flexibility to adapt.

Dedicated Team

A self-managed team that works exclusively on your project at a predictable monthly cost.

Best for ongoing development and long-term products.

Outstaffing

Individual specialists who work under your direction, billed at transparent rates.

Best for when you have management capacity and want to extend your in-house team.

Product Licensing

Access one of our proprietary products instead of building from scratch.

Best for when an existing solution can get you to value faster.

Find your starting model in two questions

A quick pointer, not a quote — we confirm everything on a short discovery call.

01How defined is your scope?

02What do you need?

How we estimate

No black boxes. Before you commit, we:

  1. Understand your goals

    We start from what you want to achieve and the scope you have in mind.

  2. Break the work down

    We split it into features and phases so nothing is hidden.

  3. Provide a clear estimate

    A fixed quote or a realistic range, with assumptions stated up front.

  4. Agree on the model

    We pick the model that gives you the right balance of certainty and flexibility.

What's always included

  • Transparent cost tracking — see how time and budget are spent
  • Full visibility — regular progress updates and direct communication
  • Your IP, fully yours — backed by NDAs and secure practices
  • Quality assurance — tested code before every release
  • No hidden fees — what we quote is what you pay

Every project is different, so we price each one individually rather than publishing flat rates that wouldn't fit your needs. Share a short outline of what you want to build, and we'll come back with a recommended model and an estimate — usually after a single discovery call.
