Frequently Asked Questions

How do we work together?

You work directly with a senior engineer from day one. We start with a brief scope alignment call or async message, define milestones or hourly sprints, and deliver clean, tested code with direct Git or staging deployment.

What are your hourly rates?

Our rates are completely transparent: $40/hr for Custom WordPress, Gutenberg, and Speed Optimization; $45/hr for AI Automations, Vibe Coding, and Third-Party APIs; and $35/hr for LMS (Tutor LMS, LearnDash). No surprise overhead or hidden fees.

Do you provide fixed-price quotes?

Yes. For well-scoped projects with clear specifications, designs, or wireframes, we provide fixed milestone proposals so your budget is capped and protected.

Can you take over and refactor an existing site?

Absolutely. A significant part of our work is auditing, cleaning up, and modernizing legacy codebases, fixing fatal errors, replacing bloated builders with native Gutenberg blocks, and boosting PageSpeed scores to 90+.

What is your typical turnaround time?

Small fixes and audits are typically resolved within 24–48 hours. Custom Gutenberg blocks or theme migrations take 1–3 weeks, and complete platform builds range from 3–6 weeks depending on functional complexity.
