What Protocloud Delivers:
Rarely delivered 
Contractually guaranteed 
Custom web development with Protocloud starts from $5,000 for a high-converting marketing website, $12,000 for a progressive web app, $15,000–$40,000 for an eCommerce platform, and $20,000–$120,000+ for SaaS web applications or enterprise portals. Pricing depends on scope, integrations, and AI features. Every project receives a fixed quote before any work begins — no hidden costs, no scope creep. For projects under $5,000, we recommend Webflow or Framer and we’ll tell you honestly which tool fits your needs.
Marketing websites: 3–5 weeks. Landing pages: 1–2 weeks. eCommerce platforms: 5–8 weeks. SaaS web applications: 8–16 weeks. Enterprise portals: 12–24 weeks. These timelines assume timely client feedback at each approval gate. Our agile sprint process with weekly demo links ensures you see real progress throughout — never a 12-week silence followed by a surprise reveal.
WordPress is an excellent tool for content-only websites with modest traffic and no complex functionality. For SaaS platforms, eCommerce, web apps, and any site where Google Core Web Vitals and conversion performance matter, React and Next.js consistently outperform WordPress on PageSpeed scores, load times, and scalability. Next.js specifically offers server-side rendering and static site generation for superior SEO performance — features WordPress page builders cannot match. That said, we do build on WordPress and headless WordPress when the project genuinely calls for it — we recommend the best tool for your specific needs, not the tool we prefer to build in.
Yes, we integrate AI into web projects including GPT-4o, LangChain RAG pipelines, Pinecone vector search, Dialogflow chatbots, and TensorFlow.js browser inference. Whether you should is a different question — and we give you an honest answer based on your specific project, budget, and user base. If you have under 5,000 monthly users, no existing content library, or a budget under $15,000, we will likely recommend investing in core performance and UX before AI. If you have the data, the traffic, and the use case, AI can deliver measurable ROI that we help you calculate before adding a single feature.
Absolutely. Web platform audits and rebuilds are 30% of our web development work. We start with a comprehensive technical audit covering Core Web Vitals performance, SEO structure, conversion rate analysis, codebase quality, and infrastructure assessment. Based on this, we recommend either targeted optimisation or a full rebuild — with a clear cost-benefit comparison for both options. We never recommend a rebuild when optimisation will achieve the same result at lower cost.
We offer four written guarantees on every project: (1) Core Web Vitals 90+ score on delivery — we continue optimising at no charge until this is met; (2) Fixed price — your quoted amount is the final amount, no scope creep invoices; (3) Fixed timeline — delays caused by our team result in additional free development work; (4) 3 months post-launch support — bugs, security patches, and minor adjustments at zero cost. Additionally, all deliverables are staged with milestone approval — you do not pay for a milestone until you have approved that stage of the project.
Wix and Webflow are excellent tools for content-only brochure sites with low traffic expectations. If your website needs to rank competitively on Google, handle 10,000+ users, integrate with your CRM and payment systems, and actively generate leads — a custom-built platform will outperform a page builder within 90 days. Our clients average 2–4× higher conversion rates and 90+ PageSpeed scores that page builders cannot match. The ROI case is straightforward: if one additional lead per week is worth $500 to your business, a $10,000 investment pays back in under 5 months.
🛡 Guarantee: We provide a side-by-side performance comparison of your current site vs our proposed solution before you commit. If the numbers don’t make sense, we tell you directly.
We use a fixed-scope delivery model with agile sprints and weekly demo checkpoints. Your signed Statement of Work defines exactly what is in scope and what the timeline is. If a delay occurs due to our side — not a client-side change of scope — we deliver the additional work at no cost. We have a 94% on-time delivery rate across 2,500+ projects. We also build a 10% buffer into every timeline for realistic planning — we do not promise impossible deadlines to win contracts.
🛡 Guarantee: Fixed timeline is written into your contract. Any delay caused by our team results in free additional development time — no exceptions.
We build Core Web Vitals 90+ scores into our development specification — not as a target, as a minimum requirement. Before launch, every project goes through PageSpeed testing, Lighthouse auditing, and load testing. If we deliver below 90 on Core Web Vitals, we continue optimising at no charge until the standard is met. For conversion optimisation projects, we baseline your current metrics before starting, track for 60 days post-launch, and present a comparative report.
🛡 Guarantee: 90+ Core Web Vitals score is a written delivery condition. We do not invoice the final milestone payment until this standard is verified.
Design is fully approved before development begins. Our UX process produces wireframes, then high-fidelity Figma prototypes that you interact with on both mobile and desktop — with unlimited revisions at the design stage. Once you approve the prototype in writing, development begins on a frozen design specification. Mid-development design changes are the #1 cause of project delays industry-wide — our process eliminates this by investing time upfront in getting design approval right.
🛡 Guarantee: Unlimited design revisions at prototype stage. Zero design changes charged if approved scope changes post-development start are requested outside the original spec — these are scoped and priced separately, transparently.
Our development process has built-in approval gates at every milestone — discovery document, wireframes, design prototype, development demo per sprint, and staging review before launch. You review and approve at every stage. This means you cannot reach launch with something that doesn’t meet your expectations — issues are caught and resolved in real-time throughout the project. In 11+ years, we have a 98% client satisfaction score on Clutch with documented testimonials from verified clients.
🛡 Guarantee: Staged milestone payments match staged deliverable approvals. No payment for a milestone until that stage is signed off. Final launch payment only after your full sign-off on staging review.
