What you’d pay a developer to build it for you.
Except you build it yourself. You own it. And you actually understand it.
Two ways to get the same thing built. One of them is yours forever.
Hiring a Developer
Cost
$3,000 to $10,000+ for one project. Every revision costs more.
Timeline
Weeks to months. You’re in their queue, not the other way around.
Ownership
Depends on the contract. Many developers keep the code.
Ongoing changes
Call them back. Pay again. Hope they’re available.
What you learn
Nothing. You get a deliverable you can’t modify yourself.
If they disappear
You’re stuck with what you have. Rebuilding means starting over.
Building with TinyFirm
Cost
$615 per month. Build as many projects as you want.
Timeline
You set the pace. Your team works when you do.
Ownership
Everything lives on your computer. Every file is yours. Period.
Ongoing changes
Tell your team. They do it. You already know how.
What you learn
Everything. You understand what was built, where it lives, and how to change it.
If they disappear
Your files are on your machine. Nothing changes.
A developer hands you a finished thing. With TinyFirm, you learn to build finished things yourself. Over and over. For as long as you want.
Three numbers. No surprises.
$555 per month
Your AI team, your workspace, persistent memory, ongoing updates through a private repository. This is the core of TinyFirm.
Three-month minimum. That’s it. After three months, it’s month-to-month. Cancel whenever you want.
Why three months? Because the memory system compounds over time. Month one is valuable. Month three is when your team really knows your project. We’re asking for enough time to show you what that feels like.
$2,200 setup fee (one-time)
Personalized onboarding for your first project. This isn’t a webinar or a tutorial video. TinyFirm walks you through the entire setup step by step. Ryan, who built the tool, is there to guide you however you learn best. By the end, you’ve set up your first project and you know how to do it on your own.
You pay this once. Never again.
$2,755 to start
That’s your first month ($555) plus the setup fee ($2,200), charged together on your first invoice. After that, it’s $555 per month.
One more thing to budget for.
TinyFirm runs inside an app called Cursor. Think of it as the office where your team does their work. Cursor has its own monthly cost.
We recommend Cursor Pro+ at $60 per month. That gives your team the computing power to work without interruptions.
Your total monthly investment: $615.
$555 for TinyFirm. $60 for Cursor.
For context: one senior developer costs $8,000 to $16,000 per month. One freelancer charges $3,000 to $10,000 for a single project. $615 per month gets you a full AI team that works on whatever you need, remembers everything, and never sends you a surprise invoice.
That’s less than a single day of a senior developer’s time.
What you get for $555 a month.
A custom AI team built for your project. Not a generic chatbot. A team of specialists designed around what you’re building. Writer, builder, researcher, manager. Whatever you need.
Permanent memory. Your team remembers every conversation, every decision, every detail. They get smarter about your project every week. Nothing is ever lost.
Ongoing updates through a private repository. When TinyFirm improves (new capabilities, better systems, smarter workflows), those improvements flow directly into your workspace. You always have the latest version.
Everything you build is yours. Every file lives on your computer. Cancel anytime after three months and keep everything. Your work never disappears.
Founder access when you need it. Our founders are available at $400 per hour for consulting. Architecture decisions, strategy sessions, implementation help. Most people don’t need it often. But it’s there.
Pricing questions, answered directly.
“Can I cancel after three months?”
Yes. After your three-month minimum, the subscription is month-to-month. Cancel anytime. When you cancel, your team stops working. But every file they created stays on your computer. You keep everything.
“What’s the setup fee for?”
Personalized onboarding for your first project. TinyFirm walks you through the entire setup step by step: describing your project, building your custom team, learning how everything works. Ryan, who built the tool, is there to guide you however you learn best. Some people want to watch a demo. Some people want to build alongside him. Either way, you leave knowing how to use TinyFirm on your own.
“Do I need to pay for Cursor too?”
Yes. TinyFirm runs inside Cursor, which is a separate subscription. We recommend Cursor Pro+ at $60 per month. Your total monthly cost is $615 ($555 + $60).
“What if I need more help than my team can provide?”
Our founders are available for consulting at $400 per hour. One-hour minimum, billed in 30-minute increments after that. This covers things like architecture decisions, tough project strategy, or hands-on implementation help. Most projects don’t need it regularly, but it’s there when you do.
“Is there a free trial?”
No. But the Discovery Call is free. You tell us what you want to build, and we tell you honestly whether TinyFirm is the right fit for your project. No pressure. No commitment. If it’s not right for you, we’ll say so.
