Your Website Is a Cost.
It Should Be an Investment

Before I quote anything, I look at what the current setup is costing you — the carts that empty at the payment step, the hours that go into retyping, the enquiries answered a day late. If those numbers do not justify the work, I will tell you that instead of selling you a website. Four products of my own are live as proof that I can build; your numbers decide whether I should.

Written case studies for each of these builds are on my personal portfolio, mrmehedi.dev.

Every claim on this page links to something you can open in a new tab and try right now. That is the whole point of it.

WHERE THE MONEY GOES

Three Leaks Worth Measuring
Before You Build Anything

A new site is a cost until it closes one of these. None of them needs a rebuild to find, and none of them is a guess about your business — they are all in numbers you already have.

The people who nearly bought

Filled the cart, reached the payment step, left.

  • Your checkout already reports this number
  • One automated follow-up brings a share of them back
  • Days of work, not weeks — and it keeps running after

The hours that go into retyping

Orders copied from a message into a sheet, then into an invoice.

  • Count the hours in one week, multiply by what an hour costs you
  • That figure is what the automation is worth
  • Not what a dashboard costs to build — those are different numbers

The reply that came too late

An enquiry answered this hour is a different business from one answered tomorrow.

  • Your inbox has the timestamps already
  • A wide gap is usually routing, not staffing
  • And routing is code

If your numbers say none of these is costing you much, that is a real answer and a useful one. It means the work is not worth doing yet, and I would rather tell you that than sell you a website.

Anyone can list technologies. Below, each thing I say I can build has a product next to it that is live, public, and was built by me. Open one.

Real-time apps that people leave open all day

Messaging, voice and video, groups, presence, push notifications — and a wallet, which means money moving between two people and neither of them losing any. The hard parts of this are not the features; they are reconnection, ordering, and what happens on a bad connection.

Tools that have to get the number right

Over fifty calculators where being approximately correct is the same as being wrong, plus a journal, broker data and a calendar. Boring, exacting work — the kind where the test suite matters more than the design.

Built it. Go and use it Cubie FX

Over fifty tools for traders — lot size, risk, drawdown and pip calculators, prop firm rules,…

AI that earns its place

A language model behind eight tools people actually use, in Bangla as a first language rather than a translation. The key stays on the server, nothing is stored, and there is no sign-up wall — because a tool you have to register for is a tool nobody uses.

Built it. Go and use it CubieAI

Eight free tools for creators — captions, hashtags, bios, content ideas, image prompts,…

Marketplaces, payments and the trust problem

Two sides — buyers and sellers — with escrow holding the money until the order completes, automatic delivery from seller stock, disputes, ratings, and bKash and Nagad. The supply side is the harder half and it is built.

Built it. Go and use it CubieMart

Game top-ups, gift cards, keys and subscriptions from verified sellers. Every seller's price…

Business software shaped to one trade

In development now: customers, sales, inventory, finance and staff in one place, adapted to salons, restaurants, shops and online sellers. If your business runs on four disconnected tools, this is that problem.

HOW IT GOES

No Surprises, in Five Steps

  1. 1

    You write, and I look at the numbers

    Use the contact form. Before quoting anything I ask for the few figures that decide whether the work is worth doing at all — orders, abandoned carts, hours lost to a repeated task. It costs you nothing and there is no obligation at the end of it. You get a reply within a day.

  2. 2

    An honest yes or no

    If it is not a good fit — wrong size, wrong field, wrong timing, or somebody else would do it better — I say so in that first reply rather than three weeks in. A no costs you nothing but a day.

  3. 3

    A written scope and a fixed price

    Before any money moves: what is being built, what is explicitly not, what it costs and roughly how long. In writing, so neither of us is working from memory later.

  4. 4

    Built in pieces you can see

    Not one long silence ending in a reveal. You get something openable early and often, so if it is going the wrong way you can say so while it is still cheap to change.

  5. 5

    Handed over so it is yours

    Code, database, hosting instructions, and an admin panel you can run it from without me. If you want me to keep maintaining it, that is a separate arrangement — not a rope around your neck.

WHAT I BUILD

Every Kind of Site, and
What Each One Starts At

Starting prices, not quotes — the real number depends on what you actually need and you get it in writing before anything begins. What these are for is the question nobody likes asking first: are we in the same conversation at all?

Business & brochure site

For work lost because you cannot be found or checked.

From $3505–10 pages · 1–2 weeks

  • Custom design, not a bought template
  • Works on a phone before it works on a desktop
  • Contact form that reaches your inbox
  • Search-engine basics done properly
  • An admin panel so you can edit the words yourself

Portfolio & personal site

For when the next job comes from being looked up first.

From $2003–6 pages · about a week

  • Built around your work, not around a layout
  • Case studies, gallery or writing — whichever fits
  • Your own domain and email
  • Fast enough to open on a bad connection

Online shop

For selling, and for seeing exactly where the sale was lost.

From $7003–5 weeks

  • Products, stock, orders and customers in one panel
  • Card and wallet checkout — Stripe, PayPal, or your local gateway
  • Delivery charges and coupons that behave
  • Order emails to you and to the buyer

Mobile app

For when being on the home screen is what brings people back.

From $1,5006–12 weeks

  • Kotlin and Swift — native Android and iOS, or Flutter for one codebase
  • Play Store and App Store submission handled
  • Push notifications and offline behaviour
  • ChatCubie is one of these, and it is on the Play Store

AI tool or integration

For the repeated reading, writing or answering that eats a day.

From $6002–6 weeks

  • Chat, search or summarising over your own documents
  • Wired into what you already run, not a separate island
  • An honest word about where it will not help
  • CubieAI is one of these

Fixing or finishing something

For a site that exists and is quietly costing you.

From $120days, not weeks

  • Slow, broken on phones, or falling out of search results
  • A half-built project the last developer walked away from
  • You get told what is wrong before you are asked for money
  • If it is not worth fixing, I will say that instead

Keeping it running

Optional, and never a condition of the build.

From $40/monthcancel any month

  • Updates, backups and uptime watched
  • Small changes each month without a new quote
  • Someone to call when it breaks at an awkward hour
  • Leave whenever you like — you already have the code

Not on the list? It is still worth asking. These are the shapes of work that come up most often, not a menu I refuse to look past.

MONEY

What It Costs

It depends entirely on what you are building, and anybody who quotes you before understanding the work is guessing. So the contact form asks for your rough budget instead — not to price against you, but because it is the fastest way to find out whether we are in the same conversation.

If your budget cannot buy what you are describing, I will tell you that straight away, and usually tell you what it could buy. A smaller thing that works beats a large thing that runs out of money half-built.

The useful way to read a quote is against the leak it closes. If a repeated task costs you two hours a day, the automation that ends it pays for itself in weeks and then keeps paying. If it costs you ten minutes a week, it does not, and I will say so.

Invoiced in USD and paid by Wise, Payoneer or bank transfer — whichever is easiest from your country.

Start that conversation

What I will not take on

Saying this up front costs me some work and saves us both a lot of it.

  • Anything I would have to pretend to understand. If it needs a specialist I am not, I will say so and mean it.
  • Work with no defined end. "Ongoing improvements" with no scope is how both sides end up unhappy.
  • Rebuilding something that already works, because it is not fashionable.
  • Anything designed to mislead the people who will use it.
  • A deadline I do not believe in. I would rather lose the job than agree to a date I will miss.
THE OBVIOUS QUESTION

“It Is Just One Person?”

Yes. It is a fair thing to ask, so here is the honest version of both sides rather than a sales answer.

What that buys you

  • You talk to the person writing the code. Nothing is lost between a salesperson, a manager and a developer, because there is one of each and they are the same person.
  • Decisions happen the same day. No internal approval to wait on.
  • Nobody is billing you for coordination. A four-person team spends real hours keeping four people aligned. You are not paying for that here.
  • The person who builds it still runs it. Four live products, all still maintained by the person who wrote them. That is the actual test.

What it costs you

  • I take few projects at once. If I am full, I will tell you when I am free rather than take your money and queue you.
  • I am not a design studio. I build clean, functional interfaces. If you need brand identity work, hire a designer — I will build exactly what they give me.
  • Big-team problems need a big team. If the honest answer is that your project needs five people, that is the answer you will get.
  • One person gets ill. Which is why everything is handed over in a state somebody else could pick up.
QUESTIONS

Asked Before Every Project

Do you work with clients outside Bangladesh?

Yes. The work is remote by default — a written brief, email, and calls booked around your hours. Invoicing is in USD, paid by Wise, Payoneer or bank transfer, whichever is easiest from your country.

What does it cost?

A portfolio site starts at $200, a business site at $350, an online shop at $700, a web app at $1,200 and a mobile app at $1,500. Those are starting points rather than quotes — the real figure comes with a written scope, and you see it before any work begins.

How long does it take?

About a week for a small personal site, one to two weeks for a business site, three to five weeks for a shop, and four to twelve weeks for an app or a dashboard. Fixing something that already exists is usually days rather than weeks.

Is it really just one person?

Yes. You talk to the person writing the code, decisions happen the same day, and nobody is billing you for internal coordination. The trade-off is that only a few projects run at once — if I am full you will be told when I am free, not quietly queued.

Who owns the code when it is finished?

You do. It is handed over in a state somebody else could pick up, which is also the honest answer to what happens if one person is unavailable.

What if my budget is smaller than the work I am describing?

You will be told straight away, and usually told what the budget could buy instead. A smaller thing that works beats a large thing that runs out of money half-built.

Do I have to pay for maintenance?

No. Maintenance starts at $40 a month and can be cancelled any month. It is never a condition of the build.

What will you not take on?

Work that needs a specialist I am not, work with no defined end, rebuilding something that already works, anything designed to mislead the people who use it, and a deadline I do not believe in.

What proof is there that any of this works?

Four products are live and in use today — ChatCubie, Cubie FX, CubieAI and CubieMart. All four were designed, built, shipped and are still run by the same person.

BEFORE YOU COMMIT ANYTHING

Fifteen minutes, free, no pitch

If you are not sure what you need yet, that is the normal state of things and it is not a reason to wait. Book a short call and we work out what the thing actually is — scope, rough cost, whether it is even worth building. If the answer is that you should not build it, you will get that answer too, and it costs you nothing.

Ask for a call Tick the box on the form — that is the whole booking process.
  • No slide deck, no discovery invoice
  • You keep whatever we work out, whether or not you hire me
  • Google Meet or Zoom, booked around your timezone

Describe the work

Rough is fine. What you write here reaches the person who would build it, and the reply comes from him rather than from a sales desk.

No mailing list, no follow-up sequence. One reply from one person.

Still reading?

Then describe what you are trying to build, even roughly. You will get a real answer from the person who would build it.
