Pricing in US dollars
Every quote we send to a US client is written in US dollars, fixed at the engagement level, broken down by deliverable, and billed against a US MSA. There is no hidden agency margin, no time-and-materials surprise, and no currency volatility risk for you. Below are the four most common engagement shapes for US clients.
| Engagement | From | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Hourly rate (small fixes, audits) | $30/hr | Senior India-based engineer, AI-tooled, billed in 15-minute increments. Used for legacy bug-fixing, performance audits, or short bursts of integration work. |
| Dedicated engineer (monthly) | $3,500/month | One full-time engineer embedded in your standups, dedicated to your codebase. Mid-to-senior level. 160 hours per month, holidays covered, replacement engineer covered if anyone leaves. |
| Fixed-price MVP (4-8 weeks) | $15,000 | Discovery, architecture, build, deployment to AWS US, 80%+ test coverage, handover docs. 30-day stabilization included. |
| Legacy modernization Phase 1 | $20,000 | Code audit, architecture target state, prioritized migration roadmap, plus delivery of the first slice on the new stack with parallel-run safety net. |
All quotes are written, fixed, and broken down by deliverable. No hidden fees. Payment terms are 50% on contract signature, 50% on delivery for fixed-price; monthly Net 15 in arrears for retainers. We invoice from our India entity (RG INSYS LLP) and accept ACH and wire transfer. Form W-8BEN-E is on file for US tax compliance; your AP team will not need to withhold under the India-US tax treaty.
