Second opinion on a website or app quote: a written verdict in 2 days, for $250

Send Mackenzie Bowes up to 3 quotes for a website or app. In 2 working days you get a written verdict on what each includes, what's missing, a fair price range and what to counter with. $250 fixed.

Before you sign a quote for a website or app, send it over, with up to two others. In 2 working days you get a written verdict on whether they're fair and what to ask for. $250, fixed.

What you get

1. Same footing. Whether the quotes price the same job: pages, features, systems it connects to, who writes the words, rounds of changes.
2. What's missing. Hosting, a year of fixes, and who owns the code are the three most often left out, and they land on you after you sign.
3. A fair range for the job as written, from the prices published on the comparison pages.
4. What to counter with, in words you can send.

Why a person, not a checklist

The five checks are free in the two-quotes post, with a prompt to give your AI. The review is for when the quote is large enough that you want someone who has written and priced these jobs for ten years to read it.

Who it is for

Anyone holding a quote for a website or app who will pay for it themselves. If the quote is under a few thousand dollars, the free checks are probably enough.

Limits

Websites and apps only. A verdict, not a negotiation on your behalf. Mackenzie won't bid on the job afterwards unless you ask.
