Project-based
For teams who know the shape of the thing.
Fixed scope, milestone payments, agreed timeline. You see the proposal before we write code.
From $3,000
How we engage
Three ways to work with a senior technical partner. Scoped proposal in 48 hours.
Quick answer
How much does Seypro cost? Engagements start at $3,000. Project-based work uses milestone payments (30% upfront, 40% mid, 30% on delivery). Retainers start at $2,000/month. Fractional CTO/CMO/CSO seats run 10–40 hours/month with a 3-month minimum. MVPs ship in 4–8 weeks, full applications in 3–6 months, enterprise platforms in 6–12 months. Every model includes project management, QA, code review, CI/CD, documentation, and 30 days of post-launch support — no separate line items.
Most clients start project-based and roll into a retainer. A few sign for the CTO seat before they hire one. Project management, QA, code review, CI/CD, documentation, and 30-day post-launch support are inside every model — not line items underneath.

Scoped per engagement
The variables
A marketing site and a multi-tenant exchange are different engineering problems.
Documented APIs are fast. Legacy systems take what they take.
A four-week delivery costs more per week than a twelve-week one for the same work.
The questions we get on every scoping call.
Yes. Project-based work is typically 30% upfront, 40% at mid-point, 30% on delivery. Retainers are billed monthly in advance. This protects both sides and keeps momentum.
Yes. Many clients start project-based, then move to a retainer for ongoing work. Or begin with a Fractional CTO engagement to define the roadmap, then transition to project-based delivery. We adapt to what makes sense.
Scope changes happen. We document the delta, price it, and get written approval before building. No surprise invoices. If scope shrinks, the price adjusts down too.
Every project gets a custom proposal. We offer project-based (milestone payments), monthly retainers, and fractional CTO engagements. Scope, timeline, and cost are agreed before work begins. Reach out for a detailed estimate.
Milestone-based payments are built into every project engagement. For larger builds, we can structure 4-6 payment milestones across the timeline. We do not offer credit or deferred payment.
