Sound familiar?

Why businesses ask for this

  1. The spreadsheet only one person understands, and they're on leave.

  2. Customers ring to ask 'roughly how much?' and you can't answer without 20 minutes' work.

  3. Your website has nothing that makes a visitor stay or leave their details.

What it does

Built around how you work

Landed-cost of an import. NDIS funding for a plan. A renovation estimate. A loan comparison. Every business has a calculation that lives in one person's head or a fragile spreadsheet. We turn it into a clean, reliable tool — internal for your team, or public on your website where it captures enquiries.

  • Built from your actual formula, checked against real examples
  • Clean interface that works on a phone
  • Public version with 'email me this estimate' to capture leads
  • Internal version with saved scenarios and PDF export
  • Live inputs (exchange rates, fuel prices, rate tables) where they matter
  • Embeddable on any website, or a page on ours
  • Versioned formulas so you can change rates without breaking history

Example

How it works for a seafood importer

The landed-cost calculator takes the supplier price, currency, freight, duty, insurance and wastage, converts at today's rate and returns a per-kilo cost and margin at three sale prices. It replaced a spreadsheet with 14 tabs. The team quotes customers in the same call, and the owner can see every scenario the team has run.

Pricing

What it typically costs

Ranges are in AUD excluding GST and reflect what similar builds have cost. Your figure depends on scope — and you'll have it in writing, fixed, before we build anything.

Build

$850$2,800

Fixed price after scoping. Nothing payable until you've seen the prototype working.

Ongoing

$0

No monthly fee for a standalone tool. Support on request or on a retainer if you'd like it.

  1. Step 1

    Scope it, price it

    A 30-minute call, then a short written scope listing exactly what the tool will do and a fixed price. No hourly rates, no surprises.

  2. Step 2

    See it working — free

    We build a working prototype of the core feature and demonstrate it. If it doesn't do what we agreed, you walk away and owe nothing.

  3. Step 3

    Pay, we finish, you own it

    Once you're happy, you pay and we complete the build, hand it over and train your team. Support, hosting and updates are available monthly if you want them.

What kinds of calculators have you built?

Import landed-cost, NDIS funding, business-readiness scoring, pricing estimators, ROI calculators. If you can describe the maths, we can build it.

Yes, and that's the lead magnet: they get a branded PDF, you get their details and what they were calculating.

Not for a standalone calculator. If it needs live data feeds or hosting on our side, a small monthly fee applies and we'll say so upfront.
