Your project

Tell us what you have in mind

Choose what you want. Further questions appear only when they apply, and a mock-up design is included in every project. The figures update as you go, and your answers are not stored unless you send them.

Thank you. We have your request. If you asked for a copy, the figures are on their way to your inbox.
That did not go through.

Check that you chose at least one thing to estimate, filled in your name and email, and ticked the consent box, then try again in a few minutes, or message us on WhatsApp.

  1. What do you want?

    Choose any that apply. A mock-up design is included with every project, so you do not add it yourself. Looking for IBIS, our business system? It is priced separately: see the IBIS website.

    Pages people can read and share.

    A site that sells products online.

    Software people use in a browser.

    How a website differs from a web app

    Website or web app?

    A website is pages people visit to read about you, look something up, or get in touch.

    A web app is software in the browser. People sign in and do a task: book, pay, manage records, or work through a process.

    An integration and automation system is a web app too. It is built mainly to connect the other systems you use and to move work between them.

    An app for phones and tablets.

    Mailboxes on your own domain.

    We look after the site on a server.

    A web app that connects your other tools.

  2. How many views does the web app need?

    Each view is a screen in the web app. For a mobile app on its own, these are the screens.

  3. How many screens does the mobile app need?

    Priced as a mobile app made after the web app, with its own hours.

  4. How many website pages?

    Shown for a website or an ecommerce website. Say how many pages we should write, and how many you will supply the copy for.

  5. Do you want a blog?

    Optional. Shown for a website or an ecommerce website.

  6. Ecommerce

    Shown because you chose an ecommerce website. One store setup is included. Add a product count if you want the catalogue priced too.

  7. How many systems should we connect?

    An integration and automation system is a web app built to connect your tools. Each integration is one system we join up.

  8. Extra features for the website

    Done by developers, separate from the page count. Shown when the estimate includes website pages.

  9. Extra features for the app

    Done by developers, separate from the view count. Shown when the estimate includes app views. The same feature can be added to a website and an app.

  10. Brand

    Optional. Shown when the estimate includes a project we design.

  11. Launch

    Optional. Shown when the estimate includes a project we build.

  12. Website hosting

    Shown because you chose website hosting. This is the recurring domain charge, separate from the one-off build.

  13. Email hosting

    Shown because you chose email hosting. Mailboxes are recurring and are not divided out of the one-off build.

  14. How should the recurring cost be billed?

    Shown when you chose website hosting or email hosting. This changes that recurring figure only. A one-off build stays a one-off.

  15. Delivery

    Shown when the estimate includes a project we build. Urgent work uses outsource rates and a shorter calendar. The hours of work stay the same.

  16. Which of these describe you?

    Tick any that apply. Only the single highest discount is used, and it does not change hosting.

    A business, start-up, non-profit, public organisation, school or faith organisation receives the organisation discount. Other does not. A non-profit also qualifies for the NGO discount when that rate is higher. Returning client means you have worked with Legacy Live before.

Working out the figures…

A ballpark for your answers so far

The figures show here as you choose, once JavaScript is on. Without it, send the form with ‘Email me a copy of these figures’ ticked and the figures come to your inbox.

Choose what to include.

Estimated cost:

We could not update the figures just now. Try another choice in a moment, or send the form and we will work it out for you.

Time to build

Amounts in South African rand. This is a ballpark to help you plan, not a quote. The one-off figure is the build. Hosting and email are recurring and are shown on the cadence you choose. We confirm scope and price after a consultation.

If ‘Email me a copy of these figures’ stays ticked, we email you the figures with a reference number. Either way we keep a copy so we can talk it through with you. Only your name and email are required.

Other ways to start

Some things are easier to talk through than to tick.
