New pricing: a $10K basic integration, and Starter now covers 3–5
by Green Dolphin Software, Integration practice
We've made two changes to how we price integration work — both aimed at the same thing: letting you start smaller, with the price still mapped to scope instead of hours.
What changed
1. A new $10,000 entry point — Basic. If you have one clearly-scoped, low-volume flow — a single source to a single target, standard field mappings — you no longer need a larger engagement to get it built. Basic is a real, fixed-bid build: source code in your GitHub, ≥80% test coverage, deployed to Sandbox and Prod, with a knowledge-transfer session and a week of hypercare. It just covers one flow.
2. Starter now covers 3–5 integrations. Previously, the $25,000 Starter tier was framed around a single bidirectional sync or a couple of one-way flows. We've widened it: $25K now covers 3 to 5 integrations sharing a pattern. If your project is a handful of related flows, that's a Starter — one fixed price.
The ladder, start to finish
| Tier | Price | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | $10,000 | One basic integration (single source → target, standard fields, low volume) |
| Starter | $25,000 | 3–5 integrations sharing a pattern |
| Standard | $50,000 | Multi-system / canonical model |
| Enterprise | $75,000 | Platform initiative, AI layer, governance |
| Custom | $100,000+ | Regulated environments, multi-system rationalization |
Beyond a basic flow, multi-integration engagements start at the $25K Starter and scale in $25K steps — $50K, $75K, $100K+ — for the rest. The price always maps to scope, never to hours billed.
What hasn't changed
- Fixed bid, no T&M. One number. If scope changes, you get a written change order with a new fixed price to approve yes/no — never a creeping invoice.
- A SOW + target-state architecture diagram in 3 business days of your intake.
- Senior-only delivery. The architect who writes the SOW writes the code.
- You own the IP. Source code is transferred to your GitHub at handover.
Start small, scale when you're ready
The whole point of Basic is to remove the reason teams put off a single integration they actually need. Build one flow for $10K, see how we work, and step up to 3–5 (or more) when the next project lands.
