Engagement · Monthly, three-month minimum
Development Retainer
An agreed number of days a month, with a response commitment.
USD 2,000–5,000 / month
For companies past the initial build who need continuous development, maintenance and someone who answers when something breaks. A fixed number of engineering days each month, a named engineer, an agreed response time for production issues, and a monthly written summary of what changed.
Work is prioritised by you, at the start of each month, and unused days do not roll forward indefinitely — that keeps both sides honest about what the retainer is worth.
What you get
- Fixed engineering days per month
- Named engineer, not a rotating pool
- Agreed response time for production issues
- Monthly written summary of changes shipped
- Dependency and security updates included
