DCD Advisory // Pricing

Engagements.Built around the problem.

DCD works with businesses, brands, founders, and organizations that need something built, improved, automated, connected, or brought to life.

These are starting points, not fixed packages. Final scope reflects complexity, integrations, timeline, implementation requirements, and the business value of the finished system.

Project engagements

Start with the problem. Scope the right build.

Every engagement is structured around the problem, the opportunity, and what the finished system needs to make possible.

[ 01 // DISCOVER ]

Discover

From $2,500

For ideas that need clarity before they need code. Strategic discovery, requirements mapping, research, technical architecture, workflow design, and a clear path from idea to implementation.

New products and platforms
Complex automation opportunities
Data and AI systems still taking shape
Ambitious ideas that need architecture first

[ 02 // LAUNCH ]

Launch

From $8,000

For focused projects with a clearly defined outcome. A Launch engagement creates a complete, self-contained capability rather than an open-ended transformation program.

Premium digital experiences
Brand and production systems
Dashboards and internal tools
Targeted automation or prototypes

[ 03 // SYSTEMS ]

Systems

From $20,000

For organizations that need more than a deliverable. Systems engagements connect multiple capabilities into infrastructure that improves how the business actually operates.

Typical mix: Web + Automation + Data + APIs + Internal Workflows + AI + Reporting

Connected operational systems
Multi-step digital platforms
Workflow and data infrastructure
Systems that create a new business capability

[ 04 // CUSTOM ]

Custom

From $30,000

For complex applications, platforms, AI systems, data products, sponsor technology, enterprise workflows, and ambitious projects that do not fit neatly into an existing category.

Complex applications and platforms
AI and intelligence systems
Data products and enterprise workflows
If it does not exist yet, this is usually where we start

Ongoing systems partnerships

Keep the system moving.

Ongoing partnerships are primarily for systems built or managed by DCD — where continued optimization and development create measurable value after launch.

[ 01 // OPTIMIZE ]

Optimize

From $3,000 / month

Monitoring, optimization, maintenance, analytics, technical support, and continued improvements.

Stabilize // Improve // Protect

[ 02 // RUN + GROW ]

Run + Grow

From $5,000 / month

Continuous development, automation, integrations, reporting, experimentation, and operational improvement.

Operate // Expand // Measure

[ 03 // EMBEDDED ]

Embedded

From $10,000 / month

DCD operates as an extension of the internal team — identifying opportunities, designing systems, building solutions, and continuously moving ideas forward.

Identify // Build // Evolve

Fit

Not every project needs DCD.

DCD is generally not the right fit for commodity websites or isolated technical tasks. We are most valuable when the thing being built needs to solve a business problem, connect systems, improve operations, or create a new capability.

A focused website or brand engagement can still be a strong fit when the work demands strategy, production quality, or a larger digital system around it.

If your website needs to connect to what happens after someone clicks, submits, buys, applies, uploads, or interacts — that is where DCD gets interesting.

Have something different in mind?

Bring the problem. We’ll determine what should be built.

Some of the best projects do not fit neatly into a service menu. If you have an idea, a problem, or an opportunity and are not yet sure what needs to be built, start there.
