Pricing and quotes
We use the same three indicative price ranges for every area, by project size. The figures below let you see the rough order of magnitude before the first conversation; the exact price for your project is set after the initial review.
Which range fits your project?
Five questions, two minutes, no contact details needed. At the end you see the likely range and what could raise the price.

Review and technical plan
HUF 0.9–1.5M · 2–3 weeks
Every project starts here: we review your goals, your current systems and any plans, prototype or code you already have, and you get a written plan, a schedule and a firm price. If you continue with us, its cost is credited to the project.

What drives the price?
Two projects that look the same to their users can differ threefold in price. The difference lies below the surface:
-
Connections to other systems
Connecting to a modern, well-documented system takes days; to an old or undocumented one, weeks. Bringing old data across is work of its own.
-
Business rules and exceptions
A discount can be a single formula, or forty rules with customer groups and exceptions. On screen, both are the same single number.
-
What a failure would cost
A bug in an internal report can be an annoyance; a bug in a payment can also cause a direct financial loss. The higher the stakes, the more testing, security and audit logging it needs.
-
Regulation and compliance
In finance, healthcare and the public sector, regulations mean documentation, audits and extra approval rounds.
-
Platforms, languages and load
Web, iOS and Android mean three rounds of testing and release. Every language means translation and review, and fifty internal users are not fifty thousand at once.
-
Readiness and deadline
A precisely scoped need needs fewer rounds of planning and alignment than requirements that take shape along the way. A tight deadline means parallel work, which raises the total cost.

Founder, agentic software engineering
At Appific, we have used an AI-agent-based development system since 2024: the agents work within strict technical rules, while a specialist decides on the system's structure and accepts the result. I have more than twenty years of experience as a software developer and architect; I previously worked on fintech systems. I now put that experience to use designing systems, reviewing them and managing their technical risks.
