Getting a web project quoted is broken. A business owner looking to build an ecommerce store will get quotes ranging from $2,000 to $50,000 for the exact same scope. A startup founder building an MVP will hear “it depends” from every developer they talk to. An agency trying to price a client project will spend hours on a proposal that may not even be in the right ballpark.

The web development industry has a transparency problem. Pricing is opaque, inconsistent, and heavily influenced by who you ask, where they're located, and how good they are at sales — not necessarily how good they are at building software.

I built Project Cost Estimator to fix this. Not with vague “it depends” answers, but with real numbers based on real data.
