How it worksClose

How the estimate works

  1. Describe your project

    Start from an idea, a link or a file, then answer a short series of questions about what you need.

  2. See the estimate

    You get ranges for cost and timeline, with a suggested team, delivery phases, tech stack and risks.

  3. Plan your next step

    Use it to plan and compare. A firm price comes after discovery, once the scope is written down.

Project estimate FAQs

  • What do I get from the estimate?

    Ranges for your project's cost and timeline, along with its scope, a suggested team, delivery phases, tech stack and risks.

  • Do I need an account?

    No. You can start without signing up.

  • Is the estimate a fixed price?

  • Who runs the estimate tool?

    The tool is provided by StackLift, which stores what you enter and handles your estimate. The Aranv privacy policy explains what this covers.
