Our process
AI writes the first draft. Senior engineers own the result.
This is how PINCLER turns a 30-minute call into working software in days — and why the price stays between $500 and $2,500.

Discovery call
We listen, ask the awkward questions, and sketch the simplest version that solves the problem. You leave with a clear recommendation, not a sales pitch.

The right AI for each job
We use the best model for the task, not one vendor
Models change monthly. We benchmark them on real client work and route each task to whatever is fastest and most accurate today.
| Tool | What we use it for |
|---|---|
| Claude / Claude Code | Architecture, long-document reasoning, refactors, code review assistance, RAG pipelines |
| GPT (OpenAI) | UI generation, data models, test suites, content and product copy, vision tasks with GPT-4o |
| Cursor | Our primary editor: multi-file edits, codebase-aware generation, rapid iteration with human review |
| Gemini | Multimodal work — images, PDFs, video — and very long context document processing |
| DeepSeek | Cost-efficient batch tasks: embeddings, classification, summarisation at scale |
| v0 / GitHub Copilot | Component scaffolding and inline completions for boilerplate |
| Clay (and Clay-style tools: Persana, Cargo) | GTM engineering: lead sourcing, enrichment waterfalls, AI research columns and pushes to HubSpot, Instantly or Smartlead |
| Apollo · Instantly · Smartlead · Lemlist | Outbound data and sequencing layers we wire into the systems we build |
Quality and security
Speed without the usual shortcuts
AI-generated code is only as good as the review around it. These are non-negotiable on every project, at every price.
- Every line reviewed by a senior engineer before merge
- Automated tests generated and run in CI on each change
- Dependency and secret scanning on every build
- Authentication, roles and input validation by default
- Environment separation: preview, staging, production
- Backups and monitoring configured at handover
Traditional agency vs Pincler
Same software. A fraction of the price and time.
AI has changed what a small senior team can ship. We pass the difference to you.
| Traditional agency | PINCLER | |
|---|---|---|
| Typical price | $15,000 – $80,000 | $500 – $2,500, fixed |
| Time to first demo | 4–8 weeks | 2–5 days |
| Delivery | 3–9 months | 3–30 days |
| Who writes the code | Junior devs, offshore teams | AI tools + senior engineers reviewing every line |
| Tests & docs | Extra cost, often skipped | Included, generated and reviewed |
| Code ownership | Sometimes licensed | 100% yours, in your GitHub |
| Scope changes | Change requests, invoices | Phased — each phase within the band |
