A web platform for estimating the cost of digital projects

Sergent Web is a platform designed to help businesses and project owners estimate the budget required for a web project.

Developed by the Youdemus web agency, the platform is built around an estimation tool capable of taking numerous parameters into account to provide a personalised estimate for a website, redesign or digital service within a few minutes.

Designing an estimation tool for different types of projects

Sergent Web is built around an interactive journey designed to accurately identify users’ requirements.

Website creation or redesign, objectives, graphic or technical services, functionalities, SEO, online advertising and hosting are progressively taken into account when building the estimate.

The challenge was to make a complex pricing process accessible without requiring users to have technical knowledge of web development.

Structuring a user journey around multiple parameters

The strength of the tool lies in the number of factors that can influence the cost of a project.

The different stages of the form therefore had to be carefully structured to progressively guide users while maintaining a clear experience despite the amount of information involved.

This approach has also been adapted to mobile application development estimates, with criteria specific to this type of project, including operating systems, functionalities, number of screens, design and additional services.

Turning project information into a personalised estimate

The information provided by users allows Sergent Web to calculate a price range based on the characteristics of their project.

The tool therefore provides a useful first step before requesting a detailed quote, helping users understand their budget, clarify their requirements and identify the factors that may influence the final cost.

The calculation methods can also evolve to remain consistent with web services and market pricing.

Combining the tool with useful editorial content

Sergent Web goes beyond its estimation calculator.

The platform also provides resources covering website creation, redesign, SEO, web marketing and the preparation of website specifications.

This editorial content complements the estimation tool by helping users better understand the different stages of a digital project before contacting a service provider.

Building a scalable platform

Sergent Web was designed as an evolving tool capable of integrating new criteria, new types of projects and updated estimation methods.

The platform therefore combines functional development, data structuring, user experience and editorial content within a single environment.

A web project that goes beyond a traditional corporate website

Sergent Web illustrates a web design approach focused on business needs, where the website does more than simply present content and instead provides users with a genuine online tool.

The project combines calculation logic, user experience, editorial content and organic search around a specific objective: helping project owners better understand and anticipate the budget required for their digital presence.
