Diagnostic Investment & Engagement Models
Clear, transparent project rates based on application complexity, user flow depth, and telemetry architecture. All diagnostic engagements are delivered on a fixed-scope professional fee basis.
Targeted Flow Diagnostic
Ideal for auditing a single critical bottleneck — such as a complex multi-step checkout, new user registration flow, or subscription upgrade modal.
- ✓ 1 Primary Application Flow / Funnel
- ✓ Telemetry payload verification & schema audit
- ✓ Heuristic friction & validation stress testing
- ✓ Written diagnostic dossier + remediation specs
- ✓ 60-Minute Executive & Engineering Walkthrough
Full Conversion Path Audit
End-to-end investigation spanning multiple acquisition touchpoints, complete onboarding sequences, product activation, and retention paths.
- ✓ Up to 4 Interconnected Conversion Funnels
- ✓ Comprehensive telemetry & SDK payload audit
- ✓ Device, OS & viewport cohort friction analysis
- ✓ Event dictionary refactor & schema dictionary
- ✓ Complete code patch guidance & sprint tickets
- ✓ 2 Video review sessions + 30-day Slack support
Quarterly Diagnostic Retainer
Continuous telemetry hygiene, regression monitoring, and pre-release conversion path validation for fast-shipping engineering teams.
- ✓ Monthly release conversion regression audits
- ✓ Direct PR review on telemetry tagging additions
- ✓ Ongoing drop-off alert triage & forensic sessions
- ✓ Priority analyst booking & async engineering Q&A
What Determines Engagement Scope & Cost?
1. Flow Branching & Step Count
Linear 3-step flows require fewer test matrices than dynamic branching flows with conditional logic, multiple auth providers, and localized payment gateways.
2. Platform & Client Surface
Auditing a single web application involves different verification harnesses than auditing cross-platform Flutter/React Native applications alongside web portals.
3. Telemetry Stack State
Well-documented event schemas accelerate analysis; heavily fragmented, legacy event tags require initial telemetry disentanglement before path reconstruction.
Transparent Diagnostic Fees
Every software product has distinct user flows, architectural nuances, and tracking setups. To ensure complete clarity and eliminate billing uncertainty, WebFlow Base delivers all diagnostic audits on a fixed-scope professional fee basis.
We do not charge hidden hourly overages or impose recurring subscription locks for single audit engagements. You receive a guaranteed timeline, defined scope of deliverables, and fixed investment amount before any work begins.

| Telemetry Validation Audit | 2 Weeks | Client-side tracking layer & event schemas | $4,200 USD | Event Dictionary Refactor + Discrepancy Matrix |
| Quarterly Advisory Retainer | 3+ Months | Ongoing regression audits & PR reviews | $4,500 USD / mo | Monthly Audits + Direct Engineering Support |
How We Determine Your Custom Quote
When scoping your diagnostic engagement, our lead analysts evaluate three key parameters:
- Number and Complexity of User Paths: Simple three-step lead flows require less testing effort than multi-role onboarding flows with dynamic branching logic and localized payment gateways.
- Platform and Device Footprint: Web-only single-page applications require different test matrices than hybrid environments spanning native iOS, Android, and web viewports.
- Current Telemetry Maturity: Applications with established, documented tracking plans allow faster deep-dive analysis compared to systems requiring initial telemetry reconstruction.
Payment Milestones & Commercial Terms
- Standard Milestone Structure: 50% upon contract execution to reserve analyst scheduling; 50% upon final delivery of the Diagnostic Dossier and completion of the technical walkthrough.
- Payment Methods: Corporate wire transfer (SWIFT) or electronic invoicing in USD.
- Informational Notice: All rates displayed above represent standard advisory fees and are provided for informational budgeting purposes. Final formal proposals are issued following an initial scoping review.
