How working with me actually goes.

How I communicate

• Daily Loom updates during active builds. 3-5 minutes each.
• Async-first. Slack/Telegram/email. Calls only when async fails.
• Response within 2 hours during EU business hours.
• Weekends and Sundays are off — emergencies get a Telegram ping; routine work doesn't.
• Live preview URL from day one of every build.

What I need from you

• Goals in plain language: what does shipping this product look like for your business?
• Examples of sites/apps you like, and a sentence on what you like about each.
• Any existing assets — Figma files, brand guidelines, copy decks, code repos.
• A real decision-maker available to approve scope and review milestones (no "let me check with three other people" loops).
• Honest budget signal so I don't over-design for what you can spend, or under-deliver for what you actually need.

What you get

• Full source code in your GitHub from day one.
• Deploy access — your domain, your accounts, your control.
• Loom architecture walkthrough explaining the codebase.
• 30 days of bug-fix support after launch (free).
• Commercial license — you own the IP completely after final payment.
• Active clients also get a private project portal with status, recent updates, deliverables checklist, and direct message to me.

NDA & IP

Mutual NDAs are standard. I'll sign yours or use my template — your choice. After final payment, you own all IP and rights to the work product. I retain the right to mention the project in my portfolio unless you explicitly request otherwise (no logo / no name / no description) — that's also fine.

Payment

• 50% to start, 50% on delivery for projects over €5K.
• 100% upfront via Fiverr for smaller engagements (Fiverr provides their own buyer protection).
• Bigger SaaS / multi-month engagements: milestone-based, quartered.
• Stripe, Wise, EU bank transfer, crypto. Whatever's easiest for you.
• Late payment incurs a 1.5%/month interest charge after 14 days. I've never had to invoke this.

My limits

• I won't take on illegal, extremist, or scam projects. Includes shadow-affiliate-marketing schemes, unregulated financial products, sketchy crypto.
• I won't work with people who can't articulate what they want. The kickoff call exists to surface this; if we can't agree on scope, I'll pass.
• I won't ghost or disappear mid-project. If something goes wrong on my side, you'll hear about it within 24h with a path forward.
• I don't take equity in lieu of payment. Cash + small equity for founder-clients I genuinely believe in is a maybe; all-equity is a no.

The fine print

• One round of major revisions is included. More = scope change with a separate quote.
• Kill fee: if you cancel mid-build, you pay 50% of the contract + work-to-date. I keep the partial work and don't bill further.
• Scope creep is friendly but firm — every "and also" gets logged as a v1.1 ticket, not folded into the build.
• Force majeure (illness, family emergency, etc.) gets disclosed within 24h. I don't ghost.
