Fixed monthly hours · Contracted · Since 2015
The problem is rarely a bad developer. It is the working model. An agency wants a new quote for every request, a freelancer goes quiet after a while, an in-house hire leaves within the year. I work differently: a fixed block of hours reserved for you each month, one person accountable, and a price you know in advance.
The model, briefly
300 € / month
Smallest tier: 10 hours reserved for you every month
In the field
40 hours
KRCPACK, a packaging manufacturer with over three hundred staff, could not make any off-the-shelf portal fit. The quotes they received were more than ten times what the same work costs with me, with a per-user licence on top. We built theirs in forty hours and it is in daily use.
15 hours
A site throwing server errors half the day was moved to Laravel with the design left untouched at the client’s request, and without changing a single record or URL. A clean server was built, Cloudflare put in front, image compression added.
500 ms or less
Average load dropped below half a second. The outages blamed on “constant attacks” stopped entirely, and the bounce rate recovered.
10 years
Half of it writing code, half of it leading the people who write it. That is why my estimates tend to hold; and when something cannot be estimated yet, I scope it before promising a number.
01 Sound familiar
We are looking for a developer and cannot find one.
You post the role, the candidates do not fit. The one who does leaves six months later for a better offer. Work stops in between and hiring starts over, and every departure wipes the company’s memory with it: the only person who knew how the system was put together walks out the door.
We worked with an agency and everything took longer.
The quote is clear; the process is not. Every new request means a new quote and another wait. The person across the table keeps changing and you keep re-explaining your business.
We found a freelancer, then they disappeared.
Quick at first, slower later, silent in the end. Nobody knows where the unfinished work stopped or where the code now lives.
Our system is old and nobody wants to touch it.
Everyone who quotes says “let us rebuild it from scratch”. You do not want to throw away a working system for one small change, and you are right.
02 The model
Those hours are yours. You decide what gets done; I propose how it should be built and we settle it together. Analysis, scoping, development, testing and release; everything in between sits inside the same hourly rate.
01
On a twenty-hour retainer I commit those twenty hours to you every month. If you consistently need more, you should move up a tier. Without the retainer I cannot guarantee the capacity is free.
02
You set the priorities. I share my estimate before starting; when something cannot be estimated reliably, we scope it first and talk after. Work that would exceed your monthly hours is never started without your written approval, so the invoice you receive is the invoice you approved.
03
Source code, database schema and technical documentation are handed over to you. Within the terms of the contract you can continue with someone else whenever you like; nothing stays locked behind me. This is a clause in the contract, not a promise.
03 What I do
I can work on almost anything that requires software, digitalisation or technology. These are the requests that come up most often. If yours is not listed, let us talk anyway.
01
Leave management, attendance tracking, meeting-room booking, HR records, approval flows, internal reporting. Built to fit you, with no per-user licence.
Explore this service02
Built from scratch, or a new module on your existing system. Marketplace and courier integrations, warehouse and packing flows, order-stock-price synchronisation.
03
Rebuilds, migrations, speed and security. Without breaking your content or your URLs, and without putting your search rankings at risk.
04
ERP and accounting, marketplaces, couriers, banks and payment providers, SMS and email services. Your systems should talk to each other.
05
Turning repetitive manual work into code: nightly jobs, automatic reports, data transfers, alerting.
06
My specialty. I examine first and decide after, without throwing away what works. If a migration is needed, the data and the addresses stay intact.
Explore this service04 How we work
01
1 hour · free
We meet, I learn how your business runs, and we look at what could be done. I do not charge for this call and I am not trying to sell you anything in it.
02
normal work, normal invoicing
We start with the tier you chose. During this period either side can end the contract; you pay for the hours actually worked up to that point and nothing further is owed.
03
after the trial period
This is the only way I can reserve part of my capacity for you. I cannot work with everyone, and the companies I do work with have my word that the time is set aside each month.
04
at least one meeting a month
Requests reach me through whatever channel you prefer: phone, WhatsApp, email, whatever works for you. When your monthly hours are used up I tell you, and we decide together: carry on, or roll the rest into next month. I recommend we sit down at least once a month to review priorities.
05 Why me
My real difference sits in one place: taking an idea and turning it into something that can actually be built. Knowing what gets done in what order, how long it takes and what it risks is something that settles in over ten years and several hundred requests.
otoparcasan.com went live after a nine-month build. I then took over as e-commerce manager, responsible for the warehouse, accounting, customer support and product teams.
As head of software development at Jengal Software I took on two teams and two high-traffic products, reporting directly to the CEO and COO.
At Lofux I built everything myself, from the product system to the accounting integrations, operations planning and the print workflow. I build and run the same kind of system I am proposing to you, with my own resources.
I am a certified Scrum Master, and I handle prioritisation and delivery rhythm with the same rigour as the technical work. I am continuing my master’s in entrepreneurship and innovation, currently studying management and industrial decision-making in Porto. It is why a forty-hour portal actually takes forty hours.
06 Pricing
The hourly rate is identical across every tier. What grows with the tier is not your discount but the capacity set aside for you. The monthly minimum is invoiced whether it is used or not, and unused hours do not roll over. The only way to work with me is to pick the tier that fits and agree on a twelve-month term: I do not take project-based work, because in my experience it ends somewhere neither side is happy with.

Work beyond your monthly hours is charged at the same rate and only carried out with your written approval. Urgent, weekend and out-of-hours work carries no surcharge.
Prices are in euro. Invoices to companies outside Türkiye count as an export of services, so no VAT is added. · If your company is registered in Türkiye, invoicing is in Turkish lira and Turkish VAT applies.
07 Guarantees
Every item below is written into the service agreement we sign.
Clause 8
The software you have paid for, its source code, technical documentation and database schema belong to you. You may use it, change it, have it developed further by others and merge it with your own systems.
Clause 5
No additional charge applies to work carried out urgently, at weekends, on public holidays or outside office hours. The same hourly rate stands.
Clause 6
You are told in advance when work is expected to exceed the monthly minimum. Nothing beyond it is carried out without your written approval.

Clause 10
Commercial, technical, financial and operational information learned under the contract is kept confidential and used only to carry out the work.
Trial period
During the first two months either party may end the contract. Hours actually worked and not yet invoiced are paid; nothing further is owed.
08 Frequently asked
If I am ill, non-urgent work moves back a few days and I tell you so. As for holidays: I have lived out of a backpack for years and have not taken one without my laptop in a long time. I can also share my availability calendar month by month.
No. Everything is built on current technology and the source code is handed to you from day one. Any developer or software company that knows the language can pick it up and continue. The code is entirely yours.
It does not, because nothing beyond your hours happens without written approval. If you consistently need more than your tier provides, I will suggest moving up; otherwise I cannot guarantee that extra time is free.
Learning your industry is my job and I will ask a lot of questions. Being a developer means picking up how businesses and sectors actually run, and there is no other way to build the right thing. I have worked across food packaging, chemical manufacturing, spare parts and textiles.
