Software project cost calculator

Two questions, an instant estimate. No account, no email required — the whole thing runs in your browser.

Step 1 — What are you building?

How this estimate is calculated

Every range above comes directly from the same figures published in our detailed cost guides — we don't compute a separate number just for this tool. We quote fixed prices against a written scope for real projects; this calculator gives you the same tiered ranges before you ever talk to us, based on project type and complexity.

We don't store or transmit your selections anywhere — the calculation runs entirely in your browser. See the full breakdowns behind these numbers: custom software cost, app development cost, website cost, and AI chatbot cost.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is this cost calculator?

It gives you the same tiered ranges we quote for real projects, pulled directly from our published cost guides for each project type. It's a starting estimate based on scope and complexity — the exact number depends on your specific requirements, which is what a free discovery call is for.

Why is the estimate a range instead of one number?

Two projects in the same category can differ 3-5x in cost depending on integrations, data volume, and edge cases. We give a fixed quote — not a range — only after a scoping call, once we understand your actual requirements.

Do I need to create an account to use this?

No. The calculator runs entirely in your browser — no sign-up, no email required to see an estimate.

Why are Beyond Softwares' rates lower than US or European agencies?

We're based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, where senior developer rates run $25-60/hour versus $150-250/hour in the US and Western Europe — a real cost-of-living difference, not a quality trade-off. Most clients see 60-80% savings on identical scope.
