Instant project quote estimator

Most software studios answer “how much?” with “it depends”. I built this estimator for the Ownly Digital website so a business owner could see a realistic price range and timeline before speaking to anyone.
They answered questions about what they needed: the type of project, how many pages or screens, extras such as an admin dashboard or integrations, how complex the work was likely to be, and what support they wanted after launch. Pricing rules turned those answers into a range and a delivery estimate on screen straight away, and a copy of the quote was emailed to them.
I wrote the questions and the pricing logic and built the whole flow, with automated tests on the pricing rules so changing one option could not quietly break the others. On the Ownly site it has since been replaced by a guided briefing, and the same approach is offered to clients as a quoting tool for their own business.
