How we calculate these estimates

Manual estimates assume a mid-level developer using modern libraries (BetterAuth, Drizzle, Stripe SDK, Resend, etc.) — not building from raw primitives. Hours include setup, configuration, customization, testing, edge cases, and debugging.

AI-assisted estimates factor in tools like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and Claude Code. AI speeds up boilerplate, CRUD, tests, and docs significantly but helps less with debugging integrations, security auditing, and architecture decisions.

Hourly rate defaults by region but is fully adjustable. Region presets reflect median freelancer/contractor rates as of 2025. A junior in South Asia can charge as low as $10–15/hr, while a senior US engineer or agency can exceed $200/hr.

Team size affects calendar time, not total hours. The same 300 hours of work takes ~10 weeks solo but ~2 weeks with a team of 5. Cost stays the same — you're paying for the same total work.

Project management overhead (15%) accounts for planning, communication, code reviews, and coordination — even solo developers spend time organizing work.

These estimates do not include ongoing costs like hosting ($20–200/mo), domains, third-party services (Stripe fees, email providers, monitoring), or long-term maintenance.
