You’re in control.

when it comes to Pricing, you steer the ship.

“Your vision. our solutions,”

means It begins with your idea.

At Byzantium, every project begins with your idea — your vision, your needs, and the direction in which you want your business to grow. Because no two projects are alike, we don’t believe in flat, one-size-fits-all pricing. Instead, we tailor our quotes to reflect the scope, complexity, and timeline of the work you need. You are in full control of the investment you make: if you have a specific budget, we’ll outline exactly what can be achieved within it. If you prefer a broader solution, we’ll provide a detailed quote aligned with your requested goals. Our priority is to respect your time, honor your resources, and deliver work that genuinely moves your business forward.

That being said, please see our Pricing Logic below.

  1. assessing the scope

We believe your project should shape the price—not the other way around. Every client arrives with different goals, timelines, and technical needs, which is why we don’t offer flat rates. Instead, pricing is flexible, transparent, and entirely aligned with the scope of work you request.

Your requested project determines the required engineering effort.
We evaluate:

  • complexity

  • tools required

  • timeline

  • data or infrastructure needs

  • level of security or automation

  • deliverables and documentation

2. Getting Started

You Set the Budget or Request a Quote

You might:
A) tell us your budget and receive a list of what can be delivered
or
B) request a full project quote based on the complete scope

You Approve the Scope Before Anything Begins

No work starts until you approve:

  • the estimated hours

  • the deliverables

  • the timeline

  • the cost

3. how payments work

A) Large projects can be divided into:

  • 30% deposit

  • milestone payment(s)

  • final payment on delivery

B) Smaller projects follow a simplified payment structure. Most require a 50% deposit to reserve your project slot, with the remaining balance due upon completion. This keeps the process fast and transparent while ensuring you only pay for the precise amount of work being delivered.

optional: just need a consultant?

$75–$125/hr for smaller scope work

$150–$250/hr for specialized cloud/AI engineering work

This is aligned with industry rates for:

  • Cloud Engineers

  • DevOps Engineers

  • Machine Learning Engineers

  • Infrastructure Automation Specialists

why price this way?

Every organization has different needs. Posting flat rates:

  • limits customization

  • undervalues specialized engineering work

  • doesn’t adapt to urgent timelines

  • discourages small businesses with tight budgets

  • discourages larger clients who need complex solutions

By allowing the client to steer the budget and timeline, Byzantium remains:

  • accessible

  • flexible

  • scalable

  • professional

  • transparent

You Are in Control

We emphasize this important message:

You are always in control of pricing.
If you have a strict budget, we’ll outline what’s possible.
If you want a full, powerful system, we’ll design a quote that fits your ambition.

Byzantium empowers business owners — not the other way around.
