In short
The Project Blueprint is a $499 USD paid discovery from Red Center Studio for anyone planning a custom platform, business website or migration. It delivers scoped requirements, a recommended architecture, a teardown of 3 competitors, a timeline and a fixed quote, usually within 5 to 10 business days, and the full $499 is credited toward the build or migration.
Who it is for
- Founders planning a SaaS MVP or custom web app who need a real number before they commit.
- Businesses comparing a new website or a migration against staying where they are.
- Agencies that need a scoped, priced plan for a client platform.
Sound familiar?
- Every quote I get is a guess, and none of them agree.
- I do not know whether this should be built on Bubble® or with custom code.
- I need a clear plan to show my co-founder, my board or my client.
What changes for you
- A fixed price and timeline you can plan around.
- A recommended platform and architecture, with the reasons.
- A document you own, whether or not you build with the studio.
What is included
- A discovery call and a short questionnaire about your goals, users and constraints.
- Scoped requirements: user roles, core flows and the features in and out of the first version.
- A recommended architecture: Bubble or custom code on Cloudflare, data model and integrations.
- Competitor teardown (3 competitors) We review three competitors you name, or we find them for you. You get a side-by-side of their features, pricing, offers and website, and a clear plan: what to match, where you can beat them, and what to skip.
- A timeline with checkpoints.
- A fixed quote for the build or migration, with expected running costs.
What you receive
- The written Blueprint document, yours to keep.
- A fixed quote for the build or migration.
- A competitor teardown of 3 competitors, with a match, beat or skip verdict for each and three quick wins.
- A $499 USD credit toward the build or migration.
What is not included
- Building the product. The Blueprint ends with a fixed quote for the build, which you are free to take elsewhere.
- Legal, financial or regulatory advice.
- Market sizing or financial forecasting. The competitor teardown is a competitive review of up to 3 competitors, not a market study.
Price and timeline
$499 USD, credited in full toward your project.
Credited against any build or migration that follows. Timeline: usually 5 to 10 business days. Prices are in USD.

Project Blueprint questions
Why pay for discovery instead of getting a free quote?
A free quote is a guess. The Blueprint does the actual scoping work, including a teardown of three competitors, so the quote is fixed, the timeline is real, and the features are aimed at winning. The $499 USD is credited in full toward the build or migration.
What's in the competitor teardown?
We look at three direct competitors across four areas: features, services and pricing, search visibility (the keywords they rank for), and website conversion (speed, calls to action, trust signals, booking or checkout flow). You get a match, beat or skip verdict for each, plus three quick wins you can act on even if you never build with us.
What if I decide not to go ahead?
You keep the Blueprint document. It is yours to use with any developer or agency.
Which services start with a Blueprint?
Custom Platform and SaaS Builds, High-Performance Business Websites and Website and App Migrations all start with a Project Blueprint.
