feat(web): move Hire Us pricing to $400/hour metered billing (PRD 0002) (#102)
* feat(web): move Hire Us pricing to $400/hour metered billing (PRD 0002) Replaces the $250/week retainer with a $400/hour rate billed against actual hours, invoiced through CoinPay after the client approves them. A 10-hour minimum engagement replaces the week as the unit of commitment. The weekly price lived in 12 places, not the 3 the PRD listed: the front-page Hire Us section, the Top-Level Pages list, /hire-us metadata, /pricing (metadata, two FAQ answers, rate bullet), /about, llms.txt, skill.md, and the Hire Us form success message. Metered billing rather than a committed weekly block, because the old "recurring CoinPay invoice" copy documented a mechanic that never existed: /api/payments/create makes a single one-shot payment, not a subscription. - coinpay-checkout derives amount_usd from hours x 400 instead of a hardcoded 250, validates hours as quarter-hour increments at or above the minimum, and returns 422 before calling CoinPay on bad input. Payment metadata carries billing/hours/rate_usd_per_hour in place of interval. - project-request returns a rate, billing mode, and minimum; no amount exists until hours are approved. - CoinPay config block documents COINPAY_RATE_USD_PER_HOUR / COINPAY_BILLING / COINPAY_MINIMUM_HOURS instead of a weekly amount and interval. - New real /terms route replacing the SPA stub: what is billable, the approve-then-invoice flow, the minimum, cancellation on one week's notice, and an explicit clause that existing engagements keep their terms until both sides agree in writing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(mcp): advance prd_next_id expectation to 0003 for PRD 0002 The standards test asserts prd_next_id against the live prd/ directory, so adding prd/0002-hourly-hire-us-rate.md moves the next free id to 0003. This assertion advances with every PRD added to the repo.

<h2>Terms</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Two separate things live on this site: an open standard anyone may
|
||||
use, and paid implementation work from Profullstack, Inc. These terms
|
||||
cover both.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
|
||||
<div className="blog-content" style={{ lineHeight: 1.7, marginTop: "1.5rem" }}>
|
||||
<h3>The standard is free</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The LogicSRC specification, JSON schemas, SDKs, CLI, TUI, and
|
||||
reference plugins are open source under the project license. There is
|
||||
no license fee, no per-seat charge, and no obligation to hire us in
|
||||
order to implement the standard. Nothing on this page restricts your
|
||||
use of the spec.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Rate</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Profullstack implementation work is billed at{" "}
|
||||
<strong>$400 per hour</strong>. One rate applies to all
|
||||
implementation work — specs, CLIs, SDKs, MCP resources, APIs, PWAs,
|
||||
and provider-neutral plugin surfaces. There are no tiers, role-based
|
||||
rates, or volume discounts.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>What is billable</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Billable hours are hours spent on your project: design, spec work,
|
||||
implementation, review, debugging, integration, and deployment, plus
|
||||
meetings and written communication about the work. Time is recorded
|
||||
in quarter-hour increments.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The following are not billed: the initial scoping conversation,
|
||||
preparing your invoice, and time spent fixing defects in work we have
|
||||
already delivered and you have already paid for.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>How you are invoiced</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Billing is metered against actual hours worked, not a subscription.
|
||||
After we accept a project, we send you a record of hours worked. Once
|
||||
you approve those hours, we issue a CoinPay invoice for exactly that
|
||||
amount at $400/hour. You are never charged for hours you have not
|
||||
seen and approved.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Invoices are payable on receipt via CoinPay, by card or by supported
|
||||
cryptocurrency. Work may pause on invoices unpaid after 14 days.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Minimum engagement</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The minimum engagement is <strong>10 hours</strong>. Engagements
|
||||
smaller than this do not cover the cost of scoping and context, so we
|
||||
will decline them rather than quote them.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Cancellation</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Either side may end an engagement at any time with one week's
|
||||
written notice. You pay for hours already worked and approved,
|
||||
including hours worked during the notice period; nothing further is
|
||||
owed. We do not bill a cancellation fee and we do not hold unused
|
||||
committed hours. Work product produced by hours you have paid for is
|
||||
yours to keep.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Existing engagements</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Clients engaged under a prior pricing model keep their existing terms
|
||||
until both sides agree in writing to move to the hourly rate. This
|
||||
page does not reprice work already underway.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Estimates</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Any estimate of total hours is an estimate, not a fixed-price quote.
|
||||
If the work looks likely to exceed an estimate we will tell you
|
||||
before the additional hours are worked, so you can rescope or stop.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Acceptable use</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
We build auditable, portable systems in the open. We decline work
|
||||
intended to deceive users, evade legal obligations, or produce
|
||||
systems that cannot be inspected by the people they affect.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Reference implementations</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Reference implementations published under the LogicSRC project exist
|
||||
to prove the specification is usable. They are provided as-is,
|
||||
without warranty, and are not a hosted product or a support
|
||||
commitment. Paid engagements are governed by the terms above, not by
|
||||
the license of any reference implementation.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Questions</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Submit a project through the <a href="/hire-us">Hire Us</a> form, or
|
||||
see <a href="/pricing">Pricing</a> for a summary. These terms may
|
||||
change; the version on this page at the time your engagement starts
|
||||
is the one that applies to it.

title: Move Hire Us pricing from a weekly retainer to an hourly rate
|
||||
status: Accepted
|
||||
authors:
|
||||
- anthony@profullstack.com
|
||||
created: 2026-07-28
|
||||
updated: 2026-07-28

||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Problem
|
||||
|
||||
The Hire Us surface on logicsrc.com prices standards work at $250/week, paid through a
|
||||
recurring CoinPay invoice after project acceptance. That number reads as a token retainer
|
||||
rather than a rate for senior open-spec implementation work — schemas, CLIs, SDKs, MCP
|
||||
resources, and provider-neutral plugin surfaces. It anchors every inbound conversation at a
|
||||
price that cannot cover the work, and it selects for clients who are shopping on price rather
|
||||
than on the standard.
|
||||
|
||||
The replacement is $400/hour. This is not a bump to an existing hourly number; it is a change
|
||||
of pricing *model*, which touches page copy, the payment configuration, and the invoicing
|
||||
mechanics that currently assume a fixed weekly amount.
|
||||
|
||||
## Goals
|
||||
|
||||
- Every public price on logicsrc.com states one rate, in one unit, with no stale $250/week
|
||||
copy left behind on any surface.
|
||||
- Inbound Hire Us inquiries arrive already anchored to a senior rate, so the pricing
|
||||
conversation is about scope rather than about the number.
|
||||
- Billing can actually execute the new model: an accepted project produces a correct invoice
|
||||
without manual repair.
|
||||
- The change is reversible and auditable — the reasoning survives in the repo, not in a Slack
|
||||
thread.
|
||||
|
||||
## Non-Goals
|
||||
|
||||
- Repricing the standard itself. LogicSRC schemas, specs, and reference implementations stay
|
||||
open and free; this covers implementation services only.
|
||||
- Building time tracking. Hourly billing needs hours captured, but that is an operational
|
||||
process for now, not a product to build.
|
||||
- Replacing CoinPay or adding a second payment provider.
|
||||
- Publishing a rate card with tiers, discounts, or role-based pricing. One rate, one line.
|
||||
- Migrating anyone currently engaged at $250/week. Handled case by case, not by this PRD.
|
||||
|
||||
## Users
|
||||
|
||||
- **Prospective clients** evaluating whether to hire Profullstack for LogicSRC work — mostly
|
||||
founders and engineering leads arriving from the spec pages, who read the price before they
|
||||
read anything else.
|
||||
- **Profullstack**, as the party quoting, invoicing, and collecting.
|
||||
- **Existing clients** on the weekly plan, who must not be silently repriced.
|
||||
|
||||
## Decisions
|
||||
|
||||
Two questions blocked this PRD at drafting time. Both were resolved before implementation:
|
||||
|
||||
- **The rate is $400/hour, confirmed deliberately.** Against $250/week this is roughly a 64x
|
||||
change at a 40-hour week. The magnitude is the point: the weekly figure was a token retainer,
|
||||
not a rate, and the new number is intended to filter out engagements too small to scope.
|
||||
- **Billing is metered against actual hours, not a committed weekly block.** This matches how
|
||||
the code already works — `/api/payments/create` creates a single one-shot payment, never a
|
||||
recurring subscription, so the previous "recurring invoice" copy documented a mechanic that
|
||||
did not exist. Metered billing also avoids the committed-block failure mode, which is a
|
||||
weekly rate wearing an hourly label. A **10-hour minimum engagement** replaces the week as
|
||||
the unit of commitment.
|
||||
|
||||
## Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
- R1 [P0] The Hire Us section heading states the new rate and unit, replacing "$250/week for
|
||||
accepted LogicSRC work".
|
||||
- R2 [P0] The price display block shows $400 with the unit "per hour".
|
||||
- R3 [P0] The `/hire-us` entry in the Top-Level Pages list is updated; it repeated the weekly
|
||||
figure independently of the section above it.
|
||||
- R4 [P0] The `/hire-us` page body and its meta description are updated.
|
||||
- R5 [P0] The CoinPay configuration block reflects the new model. `COINPAY_AMOUNT_USD=250` and
|
||||
`COINPAY_INTERVAL=week` are both wrong under hourly pricing and are replaced by a rate, a
|
||||
billing mode, and a minimum rather than renumbered.
|
||||
- R6 [P0] A repo-wide search for `250`, `per week`, and `/week` returns no remaining pricing
|
||||
references before the change is considered done.
|
||||
- R7 [P1] The site states what an hour is billed against — metered actual hours, invoiced after
|
||||
the client approves them — so the invoice mechanic is legible before a client asks.
|
||||
- R8 [P1] Minimum engagement and cancellation terms are stated, since removing the weekly
|
||||
cadence also removes the implicit unit of commitment.
|
||||
- R9 [P2] Terms of engagement are documented at `/terms` rather than only in marketing copy.
|
||||
|
||||
Surfaces the original draft did not list, but which carried the weekly price and were therefore
|
||||
in scope for R6: `/pricing` (metadata, two FAQ answers, and the rate bullet), `/about`,
|
||||
`llms.txt`, `skill.md`, the Hire Us form's success message, and both the contract and e2e tests.
|
||||
|
||||
## UX Notes
|
||||
|
||||
The price appears in several places across the front page, `/pricing`, `/about`, and the
|
||||
machine-readable surfaces; they are separate strings and will drift if edited one at a time.
|
||||
Treat the set as one change.
|
||||
|
||||
The CoinPay block is rendered as example configuration, so it reads as documentation of how
|
||||
billing actually works. A weekly interval next to an hourly rate is worse than a stale price —
|
||||
it looks like the system does not do what the copy says.
|
||||
|
||||
The stated rate sits next to what it buys. The existing four capability cards (workflow specs,
|
||||
reference implementations, integration hardening, open infrastructure) already do that work and
|
||||
are unchanged.
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- `src/lib/page-markup.ts` — section heading, price row, a new `.price-terms` line carrying the
|
||||
minimum and cancellation summary, the CoinPay config block, and the Top-Level Pages entries
|
||||
for both Hire Us and Terms.
|
||||
- `src/app/api/hire-us/coinpay-checkout/route.ts` — the amount is now derived as
|
||||
`hours × $400` rather than hardcoded. Hours are validated as quarter-hour increments at or
|
||||
above the 10-hour minimum, defaulting to the minimum when omitted; invalid hours return 422
|
||||
before any call to CoinPay. Payment metadata carries `billing`, `hours`, and
|
||||
`rate_usd_per_hour` in place of `interval`.
|
||||
- `src/app/api/hire-us/project-request/route.ts` — returns a rate, billing mode, and minimum
|
||||
instead of a fixed `amount_usd`/`interval` pair, since no amount exists until hours are
|
||||
approved.
|
||||
- `src/app/terms/page.tsx` — new real route, replacing the `/terms` stub that rendered the
|
||||
homepage SPA. The stub's entry was removed from the catch-all's `ROUTE_META`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Success Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
- Zero occurrences of the weekly price across the site and repo after the change, verified by
|
||||
grep rather than by reading.
|
||||
- First accepted project under the new model invoices correctly on the first attempt, with no
|
||||
manual adjustment to the CoinPay invoice.
|
||||
- Inbound inquiries that reach a scoping conversation do not open by disputing the rate.
|
||||
- No existing engagement is repriced without explicit agreement.
|
||||
|
||||
## Risks & Open Questions
|
||||
|
||||
- **Hours are not currently tracked.** Metered billing won, and there is no capture mechanism.
|
||||
`/terms` now defines what is billable (project work, meetings, and written communication in
|
||||
quarter-hour increments; not scoping calls, invoicing, or warranty fixes), so the definition
|
||||
is settled even though the tooling is not. Capturing hours is an operational process until it
|
||||
is worth building.
|
||||
- **Client mix will change.** An hourly rate at this level filters out the small experimental
|
||||
engagements the weekly price attracted. This is the intent, recorded here as a decision
|
||||
rather than left to be discovered.
|
||||
- **Existing weekly clients** keep their terms until both sides agree in writing to move, per
|
||||
`/terms`. Whether any active weekly engagements exist is still unknown.
|
||||
- **Author attribution** is assumed from the CoinPay org configuration and should be corrected
|
||||
if wrong.
