Fixed written price and delivery date within 24 hours of a clear brief
Who replies
A senior engineer, not a sales development representative
NDA
Signed before you send anything sensitive — just ask
Cost
Scoping and the written quote are free, with no obligation
What to include in your first message
None of this is required — a single sentence is fine — but including these gets you a more accurate quote in the first reply rather than the third:
What the software should do on launch day, in plain language.
Who uses it — one type of user, or several with different permissions?
Web, mobile, or both. If mobile, iOS, Android, or both.
Anything it must connect to: payment gateway, accounting software, an existing system.
Whether you have designs, a specification, or an existing codebase.
Any date that matters, and roughly what budget range you are working within.
If you do not know some of these, say so. Working that out is part of the scoping call.
What happens next
1
We reply
Usually within hours on a working day, with any clarifying questions.
2
Scoping call
Twenty to forty minutes. We ask what matters on launch day and what can wait.
3
Written quote within 24 hours
Fixed price, feature list, and delivery date. Yours to keep whether or not you proceed.
4
Your decision
No follow-up sequence, no pressure. If the timing is wrong, tell us and we will leave it there.
Offices
Our engineering team is in Lahore. Regional offices exist for timezone overlap and local contracting — every engagement is delivered by the same core team.
Other reasons to get in touch
You want a second opinion on a quote from another supplier. We will give you an honest read.
You inherited a codebase and want to know what state it is in. We do paid audits and you keep the report.
A project stalled with a previous team and you need someone to take it over.
You want to speak to a past client before deciding. Ask and we will arrange a call.
You are hiring engineers and want dedicated people rather than a project.
FAQ
Questions, answered.
How quickly will you reply?
Usually within a few hours on a working day, and WhatsApp is the fastest route. A full written quote follows within 24 hours of a clear brief.
Is the quote really free?
Yes, including the scoping call and the written scope document, and there is no obligation. You keep the scope document even if you go elsewhere — it is useful for comparing other quotes fairly.
Will I speak to a salesperson?
No. Your first conversation is with a senior engineer who will be involved in scoping the work. This is deliberate: sales teams and delivery teams being different people is a well-known source of projects that do not match what was sold.
Can you sign an NDA before we talk?
Yes — ask and we will send one, or sign yours. We would rather do that than have you describe your idea vaguely.
What timezone do you work in?
Our engineering team works Pakistan Standard Time, with a guaranteed minimum four-hour overlap with your working day. For clients in the Gulf, Europe, and Australia the overlap is considerably larger.
Do you work with small budgets?
Sometimes. We would rather cut scope to fit a real budget than take on something underfunded and disappoint you. Tell us the range and we will say honestly whether we can do something useful within it.
Smaller ways to start
You do not have to commit to a whole build.
Most people arrive somewhere between “just curious” and “ready to sign”.
These are the smaller, fixed-fee ways in — each one useful on its own, and each one credited or extended
into a bigger project only if you decide you want that.
Code & architecture audit
You have a codebase — inherited, stalled, or just worrying — and want an honest read before committing to anything.
Written report on architecture, security, data model and deployment
A prioritised list separating genuinely urgent from merely untidy
A straight answer on repair versus rebuild, even when rebuild pays us more
The report is yours whether or not you continue with us
Not sure which fits? Describe the problem and we will tell you
— including when the answer is that you do not need us yet.
The Qalmax Promise
Six things we put in writing.
Not values on a wall — contract terms. Ask any other supplier to match them line by line.
A price in 24 hours
Send a brief, get a fixed written price and a delivery date the next working day. Free, no obligation, and the scope document is yours to keep even if you go elsewhere.
The price does not move
Fixed, not an estimate. If scope changes we re-quote in writing and you approve before we build it. You will never open a surprise invoice.
Half on delivery
50% to start, 50% when it is live and you are satisfied. You never fund the whole project up front.
Unlimited design revisions
We do not write production code until you approve the screens. Changing your mind at that stage costs nothing.
You own everything
Full source code, design files and credentials on delivery. No licence, no platform fee, nothing that stops another developer taking over.
30 days of fixes included
Free bug fixing for a month after launch, then an optional retainer only if you want one.
A paragraph is enough to start. You get a scoping conversation and a
fixed written price with a delivery date within 24 hours —
free, and yours to keep whether or not you go ahead with us.
