Pricing

Clear models.
No theater.

TriAlpha sells custom engineering — web, mobile, AI, and cloud. Every engagement is scoped with a founder. Indicative ranges below; final pricing depends on complexity and timeline.

Engagement models

How we work together

We don't sell seats or opaque day rates. Pick the model that fits how you buy — then we'll refine a written proposal.

01

Discovery sprint

From $5,000

A short, focused engagement to clarify scope, architecture, and delivery plan. You leave with a written roadmap, estimate ranges, and a go/no-go recommendation — not a sales deck.

  • Stakeholder kickoff
  • Technical audit or greenfield plan
  • Scope & milestone outline
  • Fixed quote for build phase
02

Fixed-scope project

Typically $25,000 – $150,000+

Best when requirements are clear. We agree on deliverables, timeline, and price up front. Progress is milestone-based with founder-led engineering throughout.

  • Defined scope & acceptance criteria
  • Milestone payments
  • Direct founder involvement
  • Staging + production handoff
03

Monthly retainer

From $8,000 / month

Ongoing product engineering for teams that need steady velocity without hiring. Reserved capacity each month for features, fixes, and infrastructure.

  • Dedicated weekly capacity
  • Backlog prioritization
  • Slack / async collaboration
  • Month-to-month after first 3 months
What affects price

Scope drivers

Platform surface

Web only, native mobile, or a multi-surface product with shared APIs and admin tools.

Integrations & AI

Third-party systems, payments, auth providers, and AI pipelines add design and reliability work.

Timeline & team

Compressed timelines and parallel tracks need more capacity — we price that honestly up front.
