Our rates
We work on something called 'time and materials'. This means you only pay for time spent on your project rather than being given a fixed price for the work and charged that no matter what happens.

Woah, an agency that actually has a price on their website.
How refreshing.
Unlike most other app development agencies, we're open and transparent about how much we charge - and it's the same rate for all of our clients - startup, SME or corporate. Why wouldn't it be? It's also a single day rate to keep things simple for you - only pay for what you use. No maximising profits here.
Why do we choose Time & Materials over Fixed Price?
Big topic but in a nutshell, it goes a long way to ensuring you're getting the best possible product. We've always found it strange that fixed price projects incentivise the agency owner to get the project done as quickly as possible, rather than doing it right. That doesn't mean we don't consider what the quickest route is - we're all about Minimum Viable Product - but it does mean we're not going to cut corners.
How do I know how much a project will cost?
We're not going to leave you in the dark. We'll give you a rough estimate of how long we think it will take to build your product and then we'll keep you updated as we go along - we've built incredible tools to keep you in the loop. Also, take a look at our testimonials to see what our clients have to say about us. We're confident you'll be impressed. If you're still unsure then please do give us a call to discuss. We'd be happy to chat through our process and how we mitigate the risk associated with time and materials projects. We've been doing it for ten years so we've got a pretty good handle on it.
Haelo now has a software MVP which can be taken to market which instantly sets the business apart from most other consultancy companies. I found the MVP service good value for money as my expectations were exceeded. I am already engaged in project number two, and intend for Bad Dinosaur to be my partner of choice for all future software development.

Founder, Haelo ConsultingIt's been great to see myTOT evolve from a concept to a functioning platform. With the support of Bad Dinosaur, we were able to quickly convey, mobilise and build a functioning Marketplace whilst building strong relationships with the Bad Dinosaur team. Having been warmly received by the market, we look forward to the next phase of work with Bad Dinosaur as we strive to build our users a unique shopping community.

Co-Founder, myTOTI was an absolute novice when it came to building an app over a year ago. I found Bad Dinosaur and instantly fell in love with the name. Once I had used their services and met the team, it was not long before I fell in love with the company too. There has always been someone on hand to explain the more technical things and importantly, the team has a very design-led approach which was extremely important to me as I was designing an app that needed to be cheerful and happy as well as functional. Today we have the trundl app and we are very proud of what Bad Dinosaur as our developers have helped us achieve for our members.
Hilary Mines
Founder, Trundl LtdI was close to going with a big gym software company but my unique business model didn’t fit with the software, there were so many things I had to bend on in the end I decided it was easier to keep doing everything myself. Then Bad Dinosaur built me Fitbizzle and it has changed my life. Simplified everything and saved me so much admin time. Would highly recommend to any small business.
