Custom Software Maintenance Cost Estimator
Estimate the yearly cost to keep custom software, AI automations, API integrations, AI agents, portals, and internal tools secure, current, and reliable after launch.
Plan for the cost of owning software, not just building it
The expensive surprise is rarely the build. It is the year after launch, when hosting, security patches, vendor API changes, and support quietly become a real line item.
Total cost of ownership
The build price is only the start. Plan for the recurring cost of keeping software secure, current, and reliable in production.
Drift and decay
Dependencies age, vendors change APIs, and models update. Without upkeep, working software quietly turns into fragile software.
Response when it breaks
The real question is who fixes it, how fast, and what it costs when a payment, sync, or login stops working at a bad time.
What the yearly budget actually buys
Keep the lights on
Hosting, backups, monitoring, security patches, and dependency updates so nothing rots in the background.
Fix what breaks
Bug fixes, vendor API change repairs, and incident response when an integration or workflow stops working.
Stay current
Framework upgrades, library updates, and AI prompt and model upkeep as providers ship changes.
Small improvements
The steady stream of small changes real users ask for once software is live and depended on.

FAQ
Questions We Get Asked by Our Users
Yes. It runs in the browser and gives founders and operators a first-pass annual maintenance signal for software they own or plan to build.
Software is not a one-time purchase. Hosting, security patches, dependency upgrades, bug fixes, vendor API changes, support, and small improvements continue for as long as the system is used.
A common rule of thumb is 15% to 25% of the original build cost each year, but the real number depends on integrations, usage, uptime needs, and how current the stack is.
No. It frames the budget. A real plan needs a code review, integration audit, security check, and an agreed response and release process.
No spam. Just a practical audit.
