Build the working screens behind your business

This service is for the operational side of your business: the dashboards, portals, admin screens, forms, data views, and workflow tools your team uses to make decisions. Instead of copying updates between spreadsheets, emails, and disconnected apps, you can organize the work into a cleaner interface designed around how your business actually runs.

What this service can cover

  • Custom dashboards for operations, finance, projects, tickets, inventory, service work, or executive reporting
  • Admin panels for managing records, users, requests, statuses, approvals, and internal activity
  • Client portals where customers, members, vendors, or partners can view updates and submit information
  • Reporting interfaces with charts, tables, filters, summaries, exports, and status cards
  • Internal tools with forms, queue screens, task views, notes, assignments, and workflow steps
  • User access planning for admins, staff, clients, reviewers, and read-only roles

Best for

  • Your team needs one clear place to see work, data, and progress
  • You are tracking important business activity in spreadsheets but need a more controlled interface
  • You need a portal, admin panel, or dashboard that is private and role-aware
  • You want cleaner reporting without forcing your team into a tool that does not match your workflow
  • You already have a system, but the screens are confusing, outdated, slow, or hard to maintain

Build your dashboard request in 3 steps

Step 1Pick the dashboard path
Step 2Pick the starting point
Step 3Add demo, support, or growth options

You can build your request on this page without leaving. Nothing is sent until you click the final contact button. When you continue, your selected path, starting point, budget range, and optional add-ons are included with your contact request.

Step 1: choose the dashboard path you need

Admin panel

For managing records, requests, users, statuses, forms, notes, approvals, and day-to-day operational activity.

RecordsRolesControls

Client portal

For giving customers, members, vendors, or partners a private place to submit information, check updates, and view documents or status.

Private accessSubmissionsStatus

Internal workflow tool

For replacing manual tracking with screens for intake, routing, task updates, approval flows, team queues, and repeatable steps.

QueuesFormsApprovals

Cloud-connected system

For dashboards that need live data, databases, APIs, automation, scheduled jobs, file storage, or custom cloud infrastructure.

APIsDatabaseCloud

Choosing a path does not leave this page. It only adds the path to the request summary below.

Step 2: choose your dashboard starting point

Custom dashboard and platform projects usually start around $10,000 and commonly range from $10,000–$30,000+. The final quote depends on your dashboard screens, KPIs, data sources, user access, automations, and the level of cloud or database work needed. Ongoing maintenance, cloud hosting, future KPI additions, and new feature work can be scoped separately or covered under a support plan.

Dashboard Starter

Starting around $10k

Best for one focused dashboard or reporting view.

Plan KPI cards, charts, tables, filters, and 1–3 core screens so your team can see the most important numbers clearly.

1–3 screensKPI viewLight workflow

Custom Platform / Client Portal

Custom scope: $25k–$30k+

Best for advanced access, integrations, and portal workflows.

Create a deeper admin system or portal with role-based access, client/staff views, connected data, automation, centralized survey dashboards, and launch support.

Multi-roleAPIs / dataSurvey hub

Choosing a starting point does not charge you. It only adds the plan and budget range to your request summary.

We confirm final pricing after a discovery review because two dashboards can look similar on the surface but require very different KPI logic, integrations, permissions, testing, and post-launch support needs.

Step 3: choose demo, maintenance, and growth options

These options help us understand what should happen next. A demo selection shows an estimated demo amount due today, but this page is still a request builder. You are not charged automatically.

Do you want a demo before the full build?

Start with a free fit call, then choose a paid demo only if you want files, visuals, or a proof-of-concept before approving the full dashboard build.

Free fit call first

$0 today

Best when you want to talk through scope before paying for a demo.

A short phone or Zoom call to confirm the goal, dashboard path, likely starting point, and whether a paid demo makes sense.

No demo files included Good for early questions

Visual demo snapshot

$750 today

Best for a quick look before a bigger decision.

A small visual concept using sample data so you can see the direction before moving into a larger dashboard proposal.

1–2 screen concepts Delivered in 2–3 business days 1 small polish pass

Advanced proof-of-concept

$3,500 today

Best for survey hubs, portals, and advanced admin flows.

A deeper demo when you are considering a larger platform with multiple dashboards, sample admin screens, sample records, or survey-style views.

45–60 minute scope call 3–5 sample screens Delivered in 7–10 business days 2 grouped review rounds

Demo delivery timing starts after the scope call is complete, demo payment is received, and you provide any needed sample content, KPI names, survey fields, brand direction, or example data. Demo fees are credited toward the main build only when you approve the project within the stated credit window and the full build stays aligned with the approved demo scope.

Optional support and growth add-ons

Choose these when you expect maintenance, future KPI changes, new survey dashboards, or feature growth after launch.

Maintenance & Care

Starting around $750/mo

Best for keeping the dashboard stable after launch.

Small fixes, access questions, light content or label updates, health checks, and general support. Hosting and third-party software costs are separate when applicable.

Feature Add-On Bank

From $2.5k

Best for planned extra KPIs or small features.

A pre-scoped change budget for extra KPI cards, small report updates, labels, filters, exports, or minor admin improvements after the main scope is approved.

Platform Support Retainer

Custom monthly scope

Best for admin hubs and multi-dashboard systems.

Ongoing support for admin users, multiple surveys, new dashboard sections, integrations, access changes, automation updates, and planned feature releases.

No payment is collected on this page. We confirm paid demos through the contact form, a call, and an invoice/payment link before work starts. Your demo fee covers scope thinking, KPI structure, workflow planning, review preparation, and a clean review-ready demo package.

Paid demo process, review rules, and scope clarity

A paid demo is a small planning/prototype phase, not the full dashboard. It helps you see the direction before committing to a $10k–$30k+ build while keeping the scope clear and preventing unlimited unpaid changes.

1. Fit call firstStart with a short Zoom or phone call to confirm the goal, selected path, expected KPIs, survey/admin needs, and whether the demo option is the right size.
2. Demo fee paid upfrontThe selected demo fee is due before demo work starts. The fee is credited toward the main build if you approve the project within the stated credit window.
3. Demo files deliveredThe review package may include screenshots, a preview link, a video walkthrough, PDF notes, or clickable prototype files depending on the demo option selected.
4. Limited demo revisionsSend demo changes as one grouped list. The standard demo includes one grouped revision round; extra rounds are quoted before work continues.

Demo change policy: one grouped revision round is included with the $1,500 demo, two grouped review rounds are included with the $3,500 proof-of-concept, and extra demo revision rounds start around $350–$750 depending on what changed.

Demo disclaimer: demo work is a concept/prototype for review and planning. It is not a production dashboard, live database, deployed application, security system, API integration, or final source-code delivery unless a separate written scope says so. New KPIs, extra survey connections, additional dashboards, user roles, automations, or integrations requested after the approved demo scope are treated as change requests or added to the full proposal.

What affects dashboard pricing?

  • Number of dashboard screens, admin screens, portal pages, forms, and detail views
  • Number and complexity of KPIs, calculations, filters, charts, reports, and exports
  • Whether you are combining multiple surveys, forms, or dashboard links into one centralized admin panel
  • User access needs, including admins, staff, clients, vendors, reviewers, and read-only roles
  • Data sources such as spreadsheets, databases, APIs, CRM records, tickets, survey responses, files, or cloud systems
  • Automation needs such as notifications, approvals, scheduled reports, imports, exports, and status updates
  • Training, documentation, launch support, maintenance, future KPI additions, and new feature planning

Centralize surveys, dashboards, and admin access

If your business has two or three separate surveys, forms, or dashboard links, we can scope a single admin panel where authorized users log in once and choose the dashboard they need. Each survey can keep its own questions, records, KPI views, charts, filters, and exports while still living inside one cleaner platform.

This is usually part of a custom platform or client portal scope because it may involve user roles, data import rules, survey response mapping, reporting logic, and admin controls.

Centralized hub can include

One admin login Survey dashboards Separate KPI views Response tables Charts and filters Exports / reports User roles Future surveys

Scope, revisions, and future add-ons

Dashboard projects work best with clear change control. After the demo or starting scope is approved, new KPIs, extra survey dashboards, extra user roles, new automations, and new integrations are handled as scoped change requests instead of unlimited revisions.

Kickoff Confirm goals, users, KPIs, surveys, data sources, and the approved feature list.
Prototype review Review layout and workflow direction. Include one revision round for layout and priority adjustments.
Working demo review Review the functional build. Include one revision round for approved scope items and usability polish.
Pre-launch QA Fix bugs, verify forms, permissions, reports, and core dashboard behavior before launch.
Launch support Provide a short stabilization window for launch questions and bug fixes tied to the approved scope.

Included main-build review limit: two planned revision rounds plus pre-launch QA. Demo reviews are separate and limited by the selected demo option. New features requested after scope approval are change requests and may change the price and timeline.

Simple KPI card$350–$750 when the data already exists and the calculation is simple.
Complex KPI or calculation$750–$2.5k+ when rules, formulas, filters, or validation are needed.
New chart, table, or report view$750–$2.5k+ depending on layout, filters, and export needs.
New dashboard page$1.5k–$5k+ depending on data, role access, and UI complexity.
Additional survey/form connection$2.5k–$7.5k+ when adding another survey into the admin hub.
New integration or automation$3k–$10k+ depending on API, database, scheduling, and testing needs.

Ballpark add-on prices are planning ranges, not checkout prices. Final pricing depends on data quality, third-party systems, security needs, testing, and whether the feature changes already-approved work.

What we ask before we quote

Searchable and filterable lists for customers, projects, cases, tickets, assets, or tasks.

Detail pages

Single-record views with status, history, notes, files, assignments, and next steps.

Intake forms

Structured forms that collect the right information and reduce back-and-forth.

Survey dashboards

Separate dashboard views for each survey or form, centralized under one admin login.

Approval flows

Review screens for managers, admins, clients, vendors, or internal reviewers.

What happens after the selections are sent?

Step 1 The contact form opens with your selected path, starting point, budget range, and add-ons already included.
Step 2 You complete the dashboard survey so your quote is based on your KPIs, users, screens, data, surveys, and workflow.
Step 3 We review your request and confirm the next step: free fit call, paid demo invoice, deeper discovery, or a full proposal.
Step 4 If you select a paid demo, we confirm the demo fee and timeline first. If you are ready for the full build, the proposal confirms scope, price, timeline, review rounds, payment/deposit terms, and add-ons.
Step 5 After demo approval or full-build deposit, we start from a clear scope. New features after approval are handled through change requests.

Designed for real data and future connections

Some projects start as clean interface prototypes. Others need live data from databases, APIs, spreadsheets, cloud storage, or existing business systems. The right path depends on how much automation, access control, reporting, and system integration your business needs.

Cloud providers and tools are chosen based on the project. AWS, Azure, databases, APIs, storage platforms, CRM systems, ticketing tools, and spreadsheet imports are examples only, not sponsorships or endorsements.

Possible connection points

Databases APIs Spreadsheets / CSV Cloud storage CRM records Ticket queues Survey responses Email notifications Scheduled reports Admin authentication
