Yes! I offer monthly retainers for bug fixes, feature updates, performance monitoring, and general support. Rates are flexible based on your needs.

More affordable than you think. My priority right now is building a portfolio of real, non-NDA projects that I can showcase. I'm open to flexible pricing for interesting work that I can share publicly. Let's discuss your project and find a rate that works for both of us.

I provide regular updates via your preferred channel (Slack, Email, Discord). For larger projects, I use tools like Notion or Trello for progress tracking and share staging links for review.
