Website packages / add-ons / clear scope

Know what you're buying.
Before the build starts.

Choose a package, build your own with the quote assistant, or browse the exact scope behind each add-on. Prices stay affordable, but the definitions are written down so a revision does not quietly turn into an entirely different project.

Packages

Clear scope.
Room to customize.

Custom Code, WordPress, WooCommerce, and Shopify options are available depending on the package. The quote builder uses the published catalog and server-side pricing instead of letting the AI invent numbers.

AIBUILD YOUR OWN

Build My Own Package

Live catalog pricing

Describe what you want in normal language. The assistant can build a website scope, explain prices, or help with repair and maintenance questions without inventing numbers.

  • Uses the published Slothifer Designs price catalog
  • Knows packages, add-ons, repairs, maintenance, and scope boundaries
  • Server calculates the actual total and deposit
  • Starting-at scopes are flagged before payment
How the AI quote works

The AI is allowed to recommend only published package and add-on IDs. It cannot create a discount, hidden charge, or new price. The server validates the recommendation and calculates the quote from the catalog.

Instant scope helper / no sales call required

Tell the bot.
Build the scope.

The assistant knows the current packages, add-ons, repair prices, maintenance plans, and scope disclosures. It can ask follow-up questions when details are missing, but the server—not the AI—calculates website totals and deposits.

Custom Feature Add-Ons4 options

+$50
0
Intermediate custom functionality add-onA feature-level add-on with additional logic, state, forms, data handling, or integration work.
Scope details

This is an add-on price, not a standalone website or website-package price. A new website still requires one base website package. Appropriate for a defined feature that goes beyond a simple front-end interaction but does not yet become a large application or multi-system build.

+$100
0
Advanced custom functionality add-onA substantial feature-level custom development add-on involving more complicated logic, databases, accounts, permissions, dashboards, APIs, or automation.
Scope details

This is an add-on price, not a standalone website or website-package price. A new website still requires one base website package. The exact responsibilities, data boundaries, permissions, integrations, and abuse cases are defined before implementation.

+$250

Price is determined by the final scope because no fixed price was set for this item. The assistant may explain the category and gather requirements, but it must not invent a dollar amount.

Project total$175
50% booking deposit today$87.50
Remaining 50% is due before launch. Third-party plans, premium software, domains, processor fees, and outside service costs are separate unless explicitly listed.
Card checkout is handled by Stripe. Slothifer Designs does not receive or store your card number.

Pricing & scope disclosures

The important
fine print, in plain English.

Third-party costs

Domains, hosting, premium plugins/themes, platform subscriptions, paid APIs, payment-processor fees, stock assets, email services, booking services, and other outside-provider charges are paid by the client unless a project scope explicitly says they are included.

Client-provided content

Unless copywriting, product entry, content formatting, or asset creation is purchased, the client supplies final text, logos, images, product information, policies, account access, and other business content needed for the build.

Revisions versus new scope

A revision changes work already included in the agreed project. New pages, features, integrations, functionality, major redesigns, or materially changed requirements are new scope and may change the quote.

Starting-at prices

“Starting at” means the listed amount covers the simplest defined version of that feature. The current catalog minimum may be shown while requirements are being discussed, but checkout is blocked until variable scope is confirmed.

AI-generated quotes

The quote assistant can recommend only published package and add-on IDs. It may explain catalog prices, but the server validates the selections and calculates the actual total. Customer messages cannot override the pricing catalog or create discounts.

SEO

SEO work is intended to improve crawlability, search-engine understanding, technical quality, and page targeting. Search rankings, traffic levels, indexing timing, and a specific position such as #1 cannot be guaranteed.

Security

Security-conscious development means applying appropriate controls such as server-side authorization, validation, sanitization, output encoding, safe database access, rate limiting, secure secrets handling, and platform-specific protections where they apply. No developer can guarantee that a website, API, or plugin will be impossible to compromise.

Third-party compatibility

External platforms, APIs, payment providers, plugins, and hosting companies can change their pricing, policies, APIs, or behavior. Supported integrations are implemented against the available platform, but Slothifer Designs cannot guarantee that a third party will remain unchanged forever.

  • Routine updates and checks

  • Priority handling for minor support needs
Priority service is not unlimited development or guaranteed immediate emergency response.

Custom functionality

APIs and plugins are different.
I can build both.

Custom APIs are backend interfaces that let applications, websites, services, or integrations exchange data and trigger defined business actions. They can power things such as quote systems, inventory sync, dashboards, booking workflows, webhooks, or secure data access.

Custom WordPress plugins extend WordPress or WooCommerce itself. They can add admin tools, product logic, customer workflows, forms, dashboards, automation, permissions, integrations, or other business-specific functionality without pretending an API and a plugin are the same thing.

Security controls are selected from the actual threat model and platform. Relevant work can be guided by the OWASP Top 10, OWASP API Security Top 10, OWASP ASVS, and official WordPress security practices alongside dependency review, least privilege, safe secret handling, logging, and abuse-case testing.

Complex custom systems that combine multiple roles, large databases, payment logic, advanced dashboards, or several integrations are scoped separately rather than pretending every application-sized build has one universal flat price.
